Default Fresh Start

Greetings, everyone! I'm a newbie and I'm really looking forward to making some major changes in my life, including adopting this WOE. I've recently graduated from college and I'm starting my Master's in evolutionary biology soon. Seeing as I'm making a big move professionally, I feel it's high time I make a similarly big move personally. I've been overweight all my life and I'm ready to make myself over completely. I can't wait to become an active member of this community!

You cannot make a real commitment unless you accept that it's a choice that you keep making again and again and again.

Welcome HYPERBOLE! This is a GREAT place to be! I owe most of my success to this board and the people on it who were unfailingly supportive of me. They knew when to give tough love and when to let me lay. You too, will become a LOSER!

DRINK YOUR WATER!
64oz plus 8 oz for every 25lbs you have to lose.

Good LUCK!!

Thanks,
Discolemonade
and
Sillygirl
! I'm so glad that this board exists! I'm the type of person who needs to be held accountable, so I'm sure that having the support of fellow
Atkineers
will help lead me to my goal.

Good Morning Hyperbole,

Your subject caught my eye and I had to interject. My name is Scooter. I have been on this way of life for way over a year with much success. I allowed my 'outside' life to become kaotic and out of control. I have almost fixed those things and 'a fresh start' is what I need as well.

Several months ago, they asked to host the Spotlight forum, and up to a month or so ago, I had done just that. Well I'm back and ready as ever to assist.
Here are some other threads and links you may find help to get the wheel in motion. The intial step of moving that wheel is all you need, these links will keep to keep building up the momentum!

Rules of induction:
What are the Rules of Induction?

Acceptable foods:
What foods can be eaten on Induction?

Awesome Recipes:
http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/index.html

Caloric Counter/Carbs/Protein/Etc/Reports:
www.fitday.com (Free on-line, this is awesome!!) or some members use this one http://www.thedailyplate.com

Anyway, 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!!

Best of wishes! Life is good!
