    Me and my Boyfriend.

    Hey guys,

    I've been a member of the community for awhile now, I just haven't posted anything. I did Atkins awhile back and was on the track to losing alot of weight. Since I met my boyfriend I fell off track since he was always eating out. We tried a couple different diets but nothing really panned out. Well,We both decided that it's time for a change. We have both decided that it's time to commit to making our lives healthier and happier.



    We both hope to lose and be happier!

        Hello and good luck! At least you have someone to do this with. My immediate family are all very small and don't have an idea what a struggle it is sometimes especially when they are munching on "forbidden" things all the time.

        So it should be great having someone who supports and understands.

          Hi I'm new too. I think it's such an amazing thing that you two are doing it together!!! What motivation you will have. You could make it competitive too. Although the most important thing is that you guys can support each other when times get rough! I wish you both the best!!!

              My husband and I are doing it together, too. We definitely motivate each other and keep each other on track. It's so nice to have the support and have someone else who eats like you around.

                Welcome to you and your bf. Glad you've committed to helping each other become healthier and happier by doing this together. That's what is so special about this board. It is so much easier to stay focused when you are doing it with others, supporting one another and reporting your progress with people who care and want to see you succeed. I'd suggest you read the book together and make a good solid plan with your food choices, exercises and positive actions that will keep you working the program for the best results. Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution, edition 2002 is the book we follow here. It is the last book that Dr. Atkins wrote and he put his heart and soul into it by giving references, case studies, medical advice and recipes to help each person lose weight and get healthier.

                Welcome aboard. Make friends here, join the challenges and don't look back. Go forward to your goals and to a healthier happier life together.

                Dedication gives wings to our dreams and keeps them in flight! In One Word...COMMITTMENT.

                  Thats awesome...It really makes things a lot easier having the person your with, living the same lifestyle...(My husband and I are doing it together as well) I couldnt imagine having to watch my husband eating frobidden things in front of me.


                  Hopeful - I feel for you, that must be pretty tough at times! Kudos to you!

                      Congrats! I'm not new to this and am restarting myself for the 3w453353th time, and this time around my hubby is joining me for a small bit (he's skinny and moreso looking to trim a bit of fat and better his healthy verses really losing weight) and it definately helps to have a team effort at not buying the bad stuff at the store, etc!

                          Welcome! My hubby is doing the diet with me too and it does help BUT keep in mind that most men lose faster than us women, so don't let that discourage you if he loses more at first. (my hubby lost two inches off his waste the first week and his pants were falling off and I was still in the same pair of pants...)

                            Exactly. Men tend to have higher BMRs and more muscle mass, and drop quicker so definately don't compare. =)
