Default Hi! Debbie from Florida

Hi Everyone,

I registered on this site back in July, which is when I started Atkins. I hadn't posted yet, been "lurking" off and on. Been mostly on plan with a few "breaks" in between. I recently finished induction again, as a means to jump back in full steam.

I've done really well and have hope of reaching my goal by spring of 2008.
My starting weight was 202 and as of today I'm at 162. My goal is 135.

Hope to meet some new friends and find continued inspiration here!

Welcome to the board, glad you decide to delurk and post. You are doing fantastic so far so you must know what you are doing but if you get stumped ask away, someone is always willing to help.

Thank you both for the welcome! I know I've made progress, but, I've always been one of those people that "want it gone NOW", so I've been learning the meaning of patience!

Wow Deb, you're doing terrifically well! Congratulations and welcome aboard. It's nice that you decided to de-lurk and join in the fun.

I can relate to your wanting everything now. I'm the same. I used to have to keep telling myself that the weight didn't go on in a day, so it would take it's own time to come off too. Believe me though, that when you reach maintenance it'll seem like it fell off in no time at all. Well worth the wait!

Happy further losing!
