Welcome Lou! you sound very determined, that's wonderful! That is the kind of attitude that will take you directly to your goal. I've only been on here for a few days, but after 1 year of being on this plan, I feel a whole new sense of motivation and determination. I hope it does the same for you! Congratulations!

Yo Lou, welcome to the spotlight buddy!! Great to have you here with us!! My name is Scooter and I'm so glad to meet you.

Man, have you come to the right place. Lots of great people here with lots of great advice and information.

Quote: I am doing this again. I have tried too many things and feel to sick & too tired to give up this time.

I'm right there with you my friend. I came here a year ago at the heaviest I've ever been in my entire life. 295 pounds. I've lost 76 pounds man!! 76 pounds!! Size 38 Jeans (from 4 and XLrg Shirt (from 3X). This will be you!!

Quote: I want to be able to feel good. I want to join the National Guard again. I want to feel comfortable. I want to not be out of breath walking up stairs. I want to stop being in pain and always feeling uncomfortable.

We can help you with that, I promise. All it takes is committment from you a will to improve, and I know you have it inside you. I love White Flour and Sugar, but you know what, I've learned that it doesn't love me!!! It shan't cross my lips ever again. And I can say that with determination! Make your way around this board man, check out the pictures in the before and after forum, start some new recipes, get an exercise regime going...you can do this, YOU want to do this! And we'll all help you as much as we can!!

I'd like to hook you up with some links and threads you may find helpful:

Quote: So I am going to be committed this time.

I know you are, congrats on going low carb, make sure you jump around the forums and make your presence known, we are very happy to have you with us!!

Come on over to the Second Time Around Club and hang out with us. It's a place for those of us (yes, me included) who have maybe strayed away into the dark, only to find we need and want to back into the light again!!

Best of wishes! Life is good!

I look so forward to hearing about your success!!

Welcome to Lou!

I'm impressed with your strong affirmation of commitment! That's definitely the attitude needed to succeed in adopting Atkins as a way of life.

Best of luck on your weight loss journey and if you need anything feel free to give a shout!
