Newbie & looking for an induction buddy

[Outdorable]

Hey everyone!
After trying several diets and losing some weight...I decided enough was enough and that yeah dieting is nice to lose weight...but it is not a way of life...hence me starting the whole atkins approach to eating. I'm on day 3 of induction and have read the book and registered for fitday.com.
Hmm...a little about me: well, I'm 19 years old and just finished my sophomore year of college and will be transferring to a new school in the fall. In other words there is a lot of extra motivation for me to lose those last extra few pounds before I start school again.
As my name suggests I love the outdoors whether it's backpacking, hiking, kayaking, scuba, basketball, tennis...anything outdoors...and am looking for this additional weight loss to help get me running up those mountains one day *cough cough* well I can dream can't I?? hehe
Anyways, I am looking for an induction buddy--someone who would like to be a kind of support system for one another.
Enjoying this way of life so far and look forward to getting to know the rest of u on this board!!

Welcome to the board!

If you do that many activities the weight should come off relatively easy for you. Exercise is a key component of this WOL.

Good luck!
