  • another Newb

    Just finished my first week of Induction and I'm feeling extremely positive and very much surpried. I went into this thinking... yep here's another diet... but for the first time in a long time I'm actually SEEING the numbers on my scale going down. I also FEEL a change in my body and I'm getting more excited and more motivated than I have been in a very long time.

    I'm 5'6, 26 years old and my heaviest weight was 199 a month and three weeks ago. It scared me to think I was going to hit the 200 mark any day.... So I decided to start Slim In 6 and through that first month I lost 9lbs. And that's when the scale stopped and just stayed at 190 for two weeks. A friend I work out with suggested Atkins and gave me the book to read. I did and it all sounded TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE - and waaaaay too easy...BUT... here I am, and after ONE FULL WEEK of Indunction I'm now down to 184.5lbs (just weighed myself this morning) My goal right now is to get down to 165 and I'm actually believing now that IT IS POSSIBLE.

    All of your stories, and progress and best of all RESULTS are extremely inspiring... I am sooooo happy to have stumbled onto this board. So a big ol' HI AND HELLO to all of you out there!!!!
