Starting Today

[JohnNY23]

Today I am starting my 2 Week Induction. Ive been trying to start for some time now but seem to forget about it during the first couple days. I figure joining this forum and wathcing other people do it and reporting to people will keep me motivated.
I've read up on atkins quite a bit and ive been on it 2 years ago but didnt stick with it. (losing 30lbs in 2.5 months, which i have gained all back). But now im determined to stick with it forever. Im 23 yo male and 6 foot 4 at 280lbs, my first goal is 250... wish me luck.

Hi John. Welcome. So happy to have you join us. You'll definitely get lots of support and motivation here on the board. Its so much easier to stay focused when you make friends with others who share the same goals. Have you read Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revoluton, edition 2002? You'll find lots of case studies, advice, recipes and motivation there from Dr. Atkins - on how to do the program for the best results.

Best wishes...you can do it, we're all here for you. If you need help, just ask.

Welcome John! Glad you decided to join up with us here at ADBB... it's a wonderful place for support and inspiration.

Good to hear that you mean to make Atkins a lifestyle this time around. That's the surest path to permanent success.

Happy losing!

Welcome aboard John. I'm so glad you found this site - keeping in touch with others that are going through the same thing will really help you stay focused.

And hey, be SELFISH the next few days - just focus on yourself and what you are eating - whatever you have to do to get off to a good start - let that be your priority. (You've done this before so you must remember that the first week is really the hardest, right? Once you get that behind you it's not quite as tough to keep it up!)

I hope you come back often & let us know how it's going. Good luck!

Welcome to ADBB John. I want to tell you that you have made two great decisions today. 1. joining adbb and 2. starting atkins. This way of eating is the greatest and you will love it. This board has helped me to stay focused and posting often keeps one feeling like they are in control. if I can help you with anything let me know, brady
