  • I made it thru my first day...

    and reached my first mini goal. LOL. Sometime just can't seem to get thru the first day, but this time I did. So yeah for me.

    Anyway, I am new here and am looking to lose around 110 pounds (eventually). I have struggled with my weight since I was little and currently weight the most I have ever weighed. Funny because I always said I would never let myself get over 200 lbs. Well now I am 60 lbs past that. I would say I am addicted to food. I don't eat because I am bored or upset or all the typical reasons. I eat because it taste good and I want more. Pretty scary and it sucks.

    So now it's time to start anew. I can accomplish this, it just takes time and their is no miracle to this (unfortunatley). So hello to all

    Hello to you too. Congratulations on that first day. One day at the time is the way to go. You are right it is going to take a while to get over the eating patterns you have but I think Atkins is very helpful that way. Once you get carbs cut way down you start to gain some control and you crab that control and keep it.

          like you I always said no way I am getting past 200lbs, but I sure did... at my highest I was 297.... I fought and fought to get down to 276 and it took years... then I came to find Atkins... and it was great... mind you i had many slip ups, but I just shook them off and then got back on track... YOU will be able to get through this.. this is a great place for support.. we are all here for the same reason... Keep up the good work.. one day at a time is the way to do it
