Well, I guess I should start with my story...
I've always been a pretty big guy, I came from a big family (And by that I mean a fat family) But I was ok with it. I weighed about 250 lbs all throughout HS, but I was pretty healthy for being fat. I was on the wrestling team, I had friends, a pretty GF and all that. Then about half way through my senior year I realy started gaining weight. Most of it was because I worked at a Hardee's, I quit working out and all I did was drink beer, smoke weed and steel food from the store. In a years time I went from 250lbs to 380 lbs.
My second year of college I started working delivering pizza and taking alot of side jobs as a repair man. So I ended up working so much that I rarely ate and I got back down to 270 lbs. But then I started gaining again. I got up to 315 lbs before I finaly desided to try Atkins. I did kind of a half assed aproach. I didn't buy the book or go into it with a full understanding of how it works, I just thought I could eat meat and cheese all I wanted. It did work for a while, I got down to 297, then went back up to 305, then down to 300, then up again to 310. I did this for a month before I desided to buy the book and read it.
I started 3 days ago on the right track, I was at 302 lbs and right now I'm at 300 even. (I'm 5'8" BTW)
One of my biggest insparations is my father, he weighed 400 lbs 2 years ago. He had tryed many diets but could not stick with them. He had many medical problems then he desided to do something about it. He had Gastric Bypass. He now weights 180 lbs.
