  • Fozzy Joining The Ride!

    Hey gang!

    I found this site from the archived success stories and I've been touched by some moving posts on here. Absolutely amazing.

    So for Christmas I wanted something that went from 0 to 200 in less than 6 seconds. I got a scale.

    I started Atkins after my holiday vacation on 1/3. The wife asked me while I was tanking up the car if I wanted a soda and I said nope, might as well start now.

    Weighed in at exactly 200 on Saturday night. My height is 5-5 so 200lbs doesn't look all that great. A big beer belly even though I don't currently drink (kicked that 16 years ago!). My ideal weight is 135. Wow is that going to be a challenge, from a 40 waist to a 31 waist like I was in High School and College. I played a LOT of sports back then - soccer, tennis, basketball (no short jokes, hehe) - and it really didn't matter what I ate or how much. Big OOPS on that after school and I got a job sitting on my butt and drinking beer with the gang after work. That was 20 years ago.

    So, here I am, 5 days into induction and -5lbs already! Woo Hoo!

    Thanks to everyone who posted all those success stories and I'll make sure to put some updates out there at some point.

    Fozz (aka Mike)

      Nothing like major sports, but I'm really hoping to get rid of some aches and pains in my left leg while I bowl twice a week. I'm SURE the extra weight isn't helping that.

      -6lbs this morning! I can't believe how much water I'm drinking.
