| Hello, I'm new here, really glad to join you. My name's Adel, I'm 20 years old from Egypt. Well. I haven't really been through a regular diet or atkins. I remember back then looking at myself in the mirror, really HATED! how my body looked, it would only make me feel down Then one day i decided to give up all kinds of unneeded causing fat food and drinks (Chocolate, Sugar drinks, Fried food and much more) at the same time I started to work out variable types of body exercises, it was SO HARD to start, harder to go on but i kept pushing myself. I've lost 102 lbs through the past 5 years. Happy to say that my life's much lighter now, I run, jump and do whatever I've always thought was hard to do. I'm proud with what i've come to, intending to lose more unwanted weight in the next few months.

| Oh, I see. So you are starting the Maintenance (or is it Pre-Maintenance?) phase of Atkins?
