  • hello all

    I'm a 5'11" woman soon to turn 39. I am about 235 pounds right now, and would really like to be below 200 when I hit 40. I just finished a week of a pseudo-induction, and having found this site and the wonderful induction topic, I'm going to spend the next 2 or 3 weeks doing a clean induction.

    Gotta tell you all, so far the toughest part of Atkins was pouring my morning mug of coffee down the drain, which I did shortly after reading about caffeine and induction. I had to wash out the coffeee pot and sink as well so I wouldn't smell that wonderful coffee smell...

    I do have one question. Does anyone have a food journal form for word, or ewven a journal pprogram? I have been using a little spiral notebook, but maybe there is a better way?

      Hi NeverGrowUp :wave Welcome to ha


      I hated to say goodbye to my coffee too!!
      But I hated the pounds-a-plenty, much worse!
      As soon as I cut out caffeine, the losing commenced!

      I hope you find this board to be the most wonderful ever, just as I did.
      I wish you much success and look forward to reading your post's.

      Hugs,Tammy

        Hello NeverGrowUp. I am also an EX-coffee addict. I used to drink over twelve cups of coffee a day. I love coffee. But, when Dr. Atkins advised that you should restrain from caffeine, I quit drinking it.

        So happy you found the ADBB site. You will meet the most motivational and people that will encourage you as you do this WOE. Make sure you read the book, Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution, edition 2002...drink lots of water, take supplements and exercise. You will look definitely be below 200 when you turn 40. I wish I'd done this when I was your age. Best wishes!!! If you need any help, don't be afraid to ask. Everyone here will be more than willing to help you.
