    not new to weight loss.. but new to atkins

    i have been on atkins for about 3 weeks.. i am still on induction. i have lost about 15 lbs.. anyways.. i'm 6'3 and about 280.. i have to drop to about 215 for the air force.. haha i guess you can say i'm "set up" for the atkins diet.. i work as a meat cutter so i get a big discount on meats and seafood.. that is all i ate in the first place before i even started.. i was like.. mmmm what the heck .. might as well cut out the little bread i eat.. it has been really easy for me so far.. but ya.. this is my first post.

    Welcome to the boards. Don't go bragging 'how easy it is for you' because you already have that "GUY" thing going on. (you know guys lose weight so much faster!)

    anyway..... add the veggies to that meat!!

      Welcome to the boards!!!!! Exactly what she said - don't forget the veggies. Or the exercise. And I assume your abs post was just for the guys, but even some of the girls here have ab definition...
