Hi there! I am FAT and New to Atkins.

[johnnysmom]

I have 55 pounds to lose. OMG. It is so overwhelming.

The folks on this forum are great. I've been reading and reading...and if you all can do it...there is NO reason why I can't. I am what one would call a food addict. I gorge. From reading, I know there must be a ton of trigger foods.

I am going to try and start one of those ticker things so I can SEE every little half pound come off.

I look forward to joining you on this LIFELONG journey.

Nancy

Hi nancy!
55 is very do-able.... just think of it this way. Do you want to wake up everyday thinking of your weight? I got so sick of hating myself, I just dove in and am trying to fix it! I also am a emotional eater... so we are all here for support came to the right place!

p.s. your ticker, use the BB code and it will work.
