A journey to potential

[Rahl]

Hi, I'm Michael and I've been on atkins for seven days. I've always been muscular but with a layer of fat hiding my abs and pecs. My forearms and legs are ripped - a bothersome contrast. To prepare for this approach I read the book and stocked my fridge with healthy foods. I went for the "if it tastes good, don't eat it" approach.
My goal is to weigh 190lbs by June 16th. Here's to everyone's success

Welcome. We are all here for you and hope to be able to support you as you join us in our quest for health and weight loss. I don't know about the 'if it tastes good, don't eat it approach' because I really like the foods I eat on this plan. I've changed my way of eating, but instead of feeling deprived...I feel blessed that I can eat so many good tasting foods and still lose weight.

Check out the fourm for motivation. There are posts on just about every topic you might have questions about. Join the exercise challenges - its a great way to make friends and enjoy your new way of living/eating.

Best wishes. Keep us posted on your progress!!
