[Eastbay]

Well its 2006 ...All the hamburgers & fries & milk shakes & junk food must go
I begin the long road to freedom under the atkins for life program with a fitness
program to boot ...as the struggle begins and the sweat of muscles begin to build again and the fat burns and the weary days ahead , I look in my closet and i see a rack of clothes that are so neat with a size i youst be and i am determind to get there to ...i watched over weight people for yrs i never thought it would happen to me ...and it did ..what a nightmare the body goes wacko ...and your in the Mr big & Tall land ...It's time for aktins and freedom
and its also nice to have this forum to express our bouts and coping with being over weight ...Eastbay

TAKE HEART .. YOU CAN DO THIS!

I began my Atkins journey in January 2002 ... 40 pounds overweight and a bonafide couch potato .. at age 45. I figured I'd give it 2 weeks .. if it didn't work, what was I out? I also began a lame attempt at exercise .. a mile a day of brisk walking.

Fast forward to today: January 4, 2006. I've lost all 40 pounds .. in fact, more. I no longer walk .. I RUN .. to the tune of 35 miles a week and am on the brink of running my first marathon ..at age 50 ..

Losing the weight was only part of the health benefits of Atkins .. I am so much healthier now, its amazing. And I'm not the exception here ... if you commit 100% to changing your life forever .. YOU TOO WILL BE A SUCCESS.

If I can do it .. SO CAN YOU!
