    A newbie

    Hi everyone,

    I'm new to this message board and to atkins. I'm 5'2. My current weight is at 211 lbs and my goal weight is 125lbs. I want to lose weight for my wedding that will be held on September 13, 2008. Do you think I will be able to reach my goal?

          Welcome to ADBB Moxie, it is good to have you with us.
          On the answer to your question, I believe anything is possible with this way of eating. Be sure and read the book and follow it. (DANDR 2002 edition) Drink plenty of water and get some exercise in when you can. Accomplishing those 3 things will lead to your success.
          You will be slim and trim for your big day good luck !!

                Your goal is very doable. Stick to the plan and don't let yourself be swayed by temptations or by others; exercise and drink lots of water and you'll get where you want to go, for sure!
