Default Hi all

Hi all ! Just thought I'd say "hello" as I'm a newby.

A little about me:-
I'm 36,from the UK. I've been doing Atkins properly now since 28/6/08,I actually started about 4 days before that but it seems I was underestimating the carbs,all sorted now .
I'm currently 21 Stone 5 Lbs (299 pounds),down from 21 stone 10 Lbs (304 pounds) and I need to get down to about 13 stone (182 pounds)...Wow those weights sound much better in stones (Old English unit of weight).I'm 5' 11" short brown hair ,hazel eyes Etc Etc.
I've been with my wife for 13 years and married for 11 years.We have two kids Beth who's 8 yo and Hannah who's 9 weeks old (Ahhhhhhhhh),13 years have taken their toll on my waist and it's time to do something about it,so here goes wish me luck

Welcome Stacey. You're right. maybe I should switch my signature to stones. LOL

I started originally just about where you are. Have taken a few detours, but always come back because it works if you do. I am almost halfway home. It's definitely not a sprint, more of a marathon with a few wrong turns here and there and occasionally you have to be content to jog in place. But its a great road to be on.

There is no such thing as "just one bite".
Would an alcoholic say "just one sip"?

You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it. ~Maya Angelo~
