Cool Brand new and ready to Go

I just found this board and am thrilled. It is wonderful to find such a place that provides inspiration and information as I start this new lifestyle.

I am currently 252 pounds and need to get to 160 at some point, though I know it will take awhile. I just started Atkins yesterday and have my mind set to follow through.

Welcome to the board Ian. I am glad you have found us, if you work it properley you will have no trouble in getting to 160. Bes thing you can do in the first instance is pick up a copy of the book. Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution - (DANDR) and read it through.

Welcome aboard! You can do this. Do you have the book? Do you know the rules of induction? Stop by daily to let us know how you're progressing!

Thank you all for your words, it really helps when you are able to communicate with those that have the same goals as yourself. I have made it through today, making it two days now, I know, just a start, but it feels good anyway. You all seem like good people and I feel when reading your posts that I am in excellent company>
