Default Dying to be skinny by our vacation....

Well, today is my first day on this diet and I am so excited. I've not cheated at all today. My goal is to be thin by our vacation in May. I know I will not have reached my goal by then(atleast I don't think so), but I will be pretty close. I'm going to get on here everyday because I think this will be so encouraging.

This is it!!!

Welcome to the ADBB and with a "this is it" attitude you will soon be an experienced Atkineer. It is the right choice.


Please get a copy of the 2002 DANDR and read it. Please go to the induction forum and read all the stickys.

Put your focus on learning how to live the low carb way as a permanent lifestyle rather than a temporary diet for a special event. The body deserves to set its own time frame for weight loss, especially if you have been abusing the body with carbage for years and years.

It is important to know that you can lose complete sizes even if there is no scale movement at all. I know this first hand, it happened to me.

It is helpful for the moderators to know what your current height and weight is and how much you wish to lose. Good luck!

I started on Tuesday, Jan 28 at 170 lbs. I really want to get down to 115 lbs. I'm only 5'2, My doctor says I have a small frame and 115 is a good goal for me. Thank you for inquiring!

Good luck! No matter how quickly (or slowly) you lose the weight, if you do things right you will get where you want! The most amazing thing will be how easy it all comes to you after you get the hang of everything. Best of luck, and don't heistate to reach out for help on here...that's why we're all here!

You should see a good loss by May. I lost pretty fast up to 12 weeks, since then it has slowed down but I am still losing.
