Re: Hello | | Nice to see another male on the boards. I'm in a similar situation, doing Atkins for health reasons not just weight loss. I had a lumbar fusion in Nov 2007 and my doctor insists I get down to 170lbs. I too am larged framed and can't imagine myself at the established BMI. But I honestly beleive Atkins can get me there. Good luck. Remember to follow the plan exactally as written for optimal success. It's nto easy to get it right the first time and I'm constantly making corrections.
You can do it. Have you considered joining some challenges?
