Hi Im Jeff Im a 21 year old male from Jacksonville,Florida. I have been off an on fad diets throughout my teens from Slimfast to Weightwatchers to the 6 Week body makeover advertised on television. My aunt suggested that I find a diet that will work and dedicate myself to it, so here i am :yikes

Ive had a problem with my weight for quite a time now and finally ive decided to show people who doubt me that I can really do it!

Welcome to the board, Jeff!

This is the easiest way to lose weight. If you're hungry you eat. But soon you won't need to as often.

Look around especially at the before and after forum.

If you haven't already, read the book. That is the single most important bit of advice I could give.

And come here often, you'll get all the support and motivation you need.

Good luck.

If you look on the atkins.com site, there is an article talking about getting psycked up to do atkins. It asks us if for these two weeks at least we can make a FIRM committment. I reccomeend reading that article. Getting Psyched to do Atkins.
You ar young Jeff. 21 y/o is the time to do it. More power to you fellow atkineer. ! Flo Have a really good day today.
