    So far very good...

    Hello~

    I just wanted to drop in and introduce myself.

    I have been an Atkins follower on and off since the late 80's.

    I am sure my story is like many others, lost to goal before and was not ready to admit I had a true problem with carbs and always went back to eating the way that made me fat in the first place.

    Now I am older and wiser and am not screwing around anymore.

    I am down 41 pounds since Jan. 09 and I am in my groove.
    It has not been all song and dance but I am committed.

    Can't wait to check out more of the site!

    Stop needing High Blood Pressure meds - DONE!
    Workout in a XXXL shirt     - DONE!

        Wow - good for you. It sounds like you have a very solid plan. What an inspiration.
        149.8/no weigh/ 119



        1st goal: 139 (earlier weight)
        what the rungs mean to me:
        rung 1 - more veggies
        rung 2 - dairy (some milk in coffee)
        rung 3 - seeds, nuts (mostly sprinkled on salads)
        rung 4 - berries, melon
        rung 5 - wine -
        rung 6 - beans, hummus
        rung 7 - other fruits
        rung 8 - carrots/ potatoes (nah, prolly not)
        rung 9 - whole grains (fresh Dutch breads...)
        Major Goal - 128 lbs/ healthy range
        (on to pre-maintenance)
