  • Hey there from Cali!

    Hi there all...

    I wanted to stop by and introduce myself... I'm Adrian from Santa Clara, Ca. I'm starting Atkins diet in the morning with my friend/room mate. He has been on Atkins before and had tremendous success. I have also been on it before and if I had stayed on it, I wouldn't be the weight that I am now. In the first week, I lost about 14 lbs. 14! I know, that's kind of crazy. I don't expect results like that again, but it certainly would be nice. But, I like sweets and sugar and all that stuff that I'm not supposed to have and got severely off track. I currently weigh 326.5 lbs and I would love to get to 140. At some point in my life... I want to fit in a 2 piece swimsuit.... and when I say 2 pieces, I don't mean two large pieces!

    So I plan to start this journey again but this time I am not giving up. I will be thin in 2010! So... with that being said.. I need ALLLLL the motivation that I can get!!!

    Welcome. You can get there. Just use that boost you get from losing to keep going.
    We have a century club here for people who have 100 or more to lose. You may want to pop in there and say hey. They do roll call which can be useful and motivating.
