    Giving up coffee is a tough one. I have to admit I still have a cup in the a.m. but have switched to decaf the rest of the day. If you haven't yet read the book, it is a tremendous help. Feel free to ask questions and be sure to visit frequently. It helps keep you motivated.

    GOAL TWO 213 (personal goal)
    GOAL THREE 199 ONE-DERLAND
    FINAL GOAL 165

     It's not about the results. Its about the process.

          The headache will pass in a couple days (trust me - been there) You can take Tylenol or something like that to help relieve it. Don't take Excedrin or other medicines that contain caffeine tho - they'll help the headache, but you prob would have enjoyed the coffee more

          Congrats on starting - come back here for inspiration/motivation whenever you need it

              My wife is also 50 pounds overweight from kids, and I am hoping I will show her Atkins works on my body so she will use it as well.

              Success!

                stay away from processed foods (like shakes and bars) - eat a variety of foods, get your fats, carbs and protein in daily, drink plenty of pure water (nothing added), take your supplements and exercise...it's really that easy.
