  • Coach on board

    I am a high school football coach in NC, and I hover around 270. I did a low carb low fat diet in 2006 and lost about 72 lbs in less than 5 months. The diet was so restrictive that when I folded on it, I folded hard. I have gained almost all of my weight back. I will be starting tomorrow, I have had a high carb meal sitting in a slow cooker all day. Plus my last 6 pack in the fridge. I am going shopping after school today so I am prepared. My wife is on board with it.

    I have had a few head coaching interviews and I am sure my weight kept me in second place. I need to do this.

    Atkins Start date- 2-26-2010
    Start weight- 274

    3rd Minigoal- 219 (that would make me no longer obese)
    Goal- 200

    Welcome to ADBB!

    I hope there's a copy of the book, Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution (2002) handy, too.

    As you've learned, low carb low fat doesn't work ... and it's not how Atkins works!

    The six pack will keep ... unless you were going to knock it all back tonight!

      welcome to ADBB and to Atkins.

      glad you are a coach and will have no problem doing the mandatory exercise part of your atkins from day one too.


      remember atkins is about real food so skip buying the bars shakes and candies and focus on the legal proteins healthy fats and legal veggies.

        I'm gonna knock a few back tonight, but I am donating them to my father in law tomorrow. I am cooking 10 lbs of chicken leg quarters right now to test out a low carb bbq sauce recipe I found. I have a copy of the book on my book shelf. I will keep reading through it. Looking forward to losing some weight! I wanna get from that 3X shirt to the XL's fitting comfortably before kickoff( Late August) Wish me luck, I am a BBQ nut, so this is right up my alley!

              I had to change my start weight, because I guessed at it before.
