    another newbie here

    I am starting Atkins today with my husband. He only wants to lose 30 but I NEED to lose 100 lbs. I have gained alot of weight in the last 3 years and have been diagnosed with PCOS. I am 5'10" and weigh 255 and have a goal weight of 155 (or less ). I have a mini goal of 225 by June 15 for a family vacation to Playa del Carmen!!!

    I have been lurking for a few days getting down all the facts. I have read the book and done some shopping and we are ready to go. It's been about 12 hours now and so far so good. Just kidding. But I really admire how well everyone has done here and all the tips, etc.

    Here's to a new way of life. Cheers!

      Hi Patty and welcome to ADBB and Atkins!

      It sounds like you and DH are ready to do this! Good for you on reading up and understand the basics, aaaand stocking up the kitchen!

      You may have already found it, but if not you might be interested in the PCOS & Atkins Forum in the Atkins for Health section of the board!

      Hope to see you around the board!
