Hello everyone! Starting Atkins today..

[MeanGreen]

Just wanted to say hello to everyone! Special hello to everyone in the North Texas area!


Just a little about myself.

Been big all my life, played college football (Offensive lineman) but have no use for the weight now, have been on every diet known to man, ready to get serious and lose it. Lift weights 3 times a week but hardly ever do any cardio. Married with no kids....yet.

I currently weigh ~328lbs and my goal weight is 240. Seeing all the successful profiles is such a great inspiration.

Welcome to ADBB MeanGreen

We're a pretty friendly bunch here (mostly LOL). Feel free to write what you think, and if we don't like it, we just won't reply (LOL - just kidding)

Welcome aboard!

Welcome to the board MeanGreen! (Your name isn't Joe is it? LOL)

You have found a great group of people willing to support each other. Since you played football, you probably have some good muscle mass to help burn that fat off. Inefficient muscle (in relation to energy burning) is our friend.

Good luck!

Welcome MeanGreen! :wave Great to have you here and best wishes on your Atkins way of life!

Let us know how we can help you!! Hopefully you've read Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution so you understand the science behind the plan and all 4 phases!!

Adding cardio to your exercise regimen will speed up your weight loss and help you burn fat!

Cheering you all the way!
