    On day 6

    Hi everyone,

    I found this site last night and I have to say I am so motivated now. I know that weight loss can be done. I have about 50 lbs. to lose. I weighed this morning and it looks as if I have lost 3 lbs. since New Year's Day. That was my 1st day. I have been able to give up all the carbs and am down to 1-2 Diet Coke's a day. It sounds like alot, but compared to what I used to drink it isn't. Anyway, thanks to everyone who has posted their successes. I am so anxious to see what happens in 4 months. My husband and I are trying to plan a Las Vegas vacation in early May. I would love to be able to do my new size shopping in LV. What a treat that would be Also, can anyone tell me how to set mini goals and such on the site?

    Re: On day 6

    Welcome to the board, this is a great place. I used to be a diet coke nut myself between 5-8 a day, but now none for 78 days. After the the initial 2-3 days of craving I feel so much better.

    Since you have about 50 lbs. to lose I would suggest setting your mini-goals in ten pound increments, most people just list them in their signature and update as they go along.

    Good Luck, you will do great.

    What I know:
    1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
    2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
    3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
    4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

          A agree, mini goals of 10 pounds are do-able! You just create it within your signture. Go up to your User CP and click on Edit Signature. Then make your goal list and save it.

          Oh yeah, welcome to the board!
