    I failed to keep it off, but this time im gonna do it!!!

    Hi, everyone. Im back.
    well ive put a bit of weight back on over the last year due to an injury that stoped me from going to the gym and exesizing, I had a car crash (Not my fault) and iI broke my leg and arm in 3 places and damaged my back, But now I am 100% recovered, and been on atkins since Monday with my girlfriend, its been a very hard year just a week after my doctor gave me the all clear my 83 year old dad fell and broke his hip!! so I am now looking after him 24hrs a day so i still cant go back to the gym!! but i have my home gym and weights and my legs!!
    When i started my diet about 3 years ago i started at 190Kilos (418lbs) and within 2 years I got down to 105Kilos (231Lbs) Not all of it was atking i would say about half of it, But now i am up to 160Kilos (352lbs), I started on Monday with atkins and also taking reductil/meridia i think its called in the states, and today ive have lost a total of 5 kilos (11lbs) so now i weigh 155Kilos, i want to get down to 95 kilos, I have no time limit (But i would like do it before Xmas 2007). So wish me the best of luck, and i will be starting my journel agian if im allowed.
    Best Wishes

      Welcome back to Atkins Matthew, and back to the board. You'll find it hasn't changed... still a terrific place for support and motivation.
      Sounds like you mean business with your home gym (sorry to hear about your father, and that you can't get to the gym right now). It's cool that you aren't letting the trials of "life" stand in your way.

      Happy losing!
      Before and after:

                  Isn't it nice to see the changes in the face.. I have been noticing mine lately too even though I personally can't tell it in the body...

                    Hiya,
                    It's a long and winding road, but worth the travelling, keep up the good work, all we can all do is try.

                    Blessings to you and yours,
                    Helen
