  • Been hanging around and reading.....

    Started this journey at New Years.... down about 46 lbs since then. There are a lot of very inspiring stories here and they help me every day. I've been heavy most of my adult life and am wanting to be healthy and "normal". It's hot here now, in the upper 90's... heat index in the 100's+, but am still walking after work and it's tough. I feel like I'm already a success as I've done well this year, but am struggling to keep it up. The success stories here help a lot.

    Be well, and keep it up folks!

        Thank you! There sure are some very inspirational people around here and everyone is so supportive, and we want to see everyone succeed. I just posted a thread yesterday with new before and after/during photos, I can't believe it myself when I look at pictures. If you haven't taken before and after pictures, you really should...even if they are just pictures for your eyes only.

        My dad is finally converting...he's 61...and he's been doing it for the last 3 or 4 weeks. I'm not sure how many pounds he's lost, but his pot belly isn't pot anymore, it's getting really flat! I love how Atkins attacks that fat on the torso first!
