Thank you 2big for your sterling work in rallying the over 50's troops into asking for this forum to reopen.

Now it is up to us all to keep up the momentum and make this forum active and able to answer any special needs or help us solve any special problems that we 50+ Atkineers might experience in following the Atkins WOL.

Thanks, 2Big. 50 is a great place to be and we deserve a special place to discuss our Atkins successes and get peer support for our tough times. I've been through the HRT, anti-depressants, and Blood Pressure medicine and it definitely hurt my weightloss progress. Now I'm off of it all and feel better than ever. Somehow, I don't think many people under oh say 45 would appreciate the frustrations involved with all those meds, not to mention a constantly declining metabolism if left to itself.

The fact that we can keep up with our exercise and weightloss as if we were 25 is amazing to me. I never thought I would be getting on a bike and riding 25miles at age 40 let alone 55, but I'm doing just that on May 7.

I look forward to hearing more from those over 50 (or close to it in Bren's case).

Aw Shucks. Thanks see an Akins need get ADBB to fill it. ensive in a couple of yrs it will be time to lobby for the 60s board so y'all can all graduate.

I was just going to use y'all as my research on Atkins and and aging soi could see what lay ahead for me in a couple yrs. jk

Have fun discussing your special needs and sharing those grandkids too.
