  • Starting a new me

    Alright, here I go. I am 28 and weigh 431. I started my atkins on 2/24/08. I just went to get weighed and found out that I lost 14 pounds in 6 days. I have a lot I am trying to live for. My wife, two wonderful kids, and myself. I have been on the atkins before about 4 years ago and lost 100 pounds, but got off when I got married and gained a whole lot back. I have all the bad health problems high blood and sugar problems, etc. My goal now is going to stand strong and live. I have GOD in my life so anything is possible. I exercise as much as I can. I go in the yard with the kids and play basketball or whatever they like. I also try and use light weight trainning. So this is a little bit about me and I really love this website and it seems there is a lot of support and help on it. Thanks to all for reading and any responses. God bless

      Welcome to the ADBB Hamlove! Congrats on the first 14 pounds lost. Sounds like you're off to a great start! You should definitely come by the Century Club Forum. It's for those of us with 100 or more pounds to lose. We have a daily roll call where we check in with each other every day. There are so many supportive people in that group. Come join us! I look forward to seeing you around the board.

      The difference between try and triumph is just a little umph!
