New here, but not to Atkins.

[Hammer1]

Hello all,
As I said, I am new here, but I've been doing "Atkins" since March of 05. I started out at 515 lbs and am now at 465. Not a great deal of weight loss for as long as I have been on plan. Actually, that's the problem, I haven't always been on plan. I am a member of another "Atkins" board, but can no longer seem to get any motivation there. I know, you're saying, what more motivation do you need when you weigh 465# and you're right, that's the way it should be, but at times I need help. I stumbled accross your board on accident and find it to be quite inspirational, so I'm going to hang around for a while and see if I can get back on track. Thanks for taking the time to read this post and I will be talking to you again real soon.

Welcome to the board, Hammer1! You found a great place to get motivated - this ADBB is positively habit-forming!

Welcome Hammer, 60 lbs lost already is quite an achievement. Hang with us and post often!

Welcome. So glad that you've joined us. I do feel that the ADBB is the best form of support to keep us motivated and inspired to live healthy. My advice to anyone who is losing the ambition to keep going is to get more active in the forums, make friends and give yourself mini-goals.
