Hello everyone. Well - I just made what feels like a huge commitment: I signed up to get atkins at home meals delivered starting next friday!

This will be my 3rd or 4th try at induction, but I hope with the added support of pre-cooked meals I will be more successfull.

So a little bit about me and my health goals: In college (class of 1999) I was on a varsity light weight athletic team. My competition weight was 155 lbs. I recently weighed myself and I am now up around 320! Yikes, thats almost double my weight in less than a decade.

I used to windsurf... I would love to be fit enough to do that again. Also I am interested in high performance sailing.. Most of the boats that I have seen are geared for a max weight of about 190lbs...

Anyway - I realize that this is a process, but hopefully I can drop a few pounds before this summer, and get down to my target weight in a reasonable time.

If people could send me info about motivational tools - the sig stuff I see on this board.. whatever.. that would be most excellent.

Thats it
