It works!!!!!

[bigdaddy-nobucks]

I thank god every day for Atkins 1yr 1 month 125 pounds gone. I eat better than I ever did getting huge. The effort involved has been jusk looking at what I eat. I laugh at calories. I ate 1000 calories a day to maintain 340, what a joke. I weigh less than I did in High School 34 years ago. I am going to reach my goal no problem. A little sticking spot here and there but so what? To undo 25 years of weight gain in such a short time is a miracle. I used to hang out of size 50 overalls, I now wear 34 waist jeans. My Doctor has taken me off all BP meds my cholesteral count is 130 total. I believe in Atkins for life!!!!! A success story yes, oh yeah and it just keeps working!

you are an inspiration bigdaddy!!! Congratulations on your loss and on gaining your life back! I'm happy for you getting off your BP meds....I'm hoping to be off all my meds by this time next year!


What was your beginning weight and what is it now? You need to get your story out to more on the board - especially to those who are just starting and need encouragement that this WOE can work for them also!! Congrats again!!

As a newbie to this forum and the Atkins may I say that your story really gives me hope for myself. I have a lot of weight to lose and it seems impossible as there is so much to lose. People like you really gives me confidence to stick to this.

Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
