Default not new- third time a charm- i hope

Hello all, I have been here before- mostly a lurker but I thought I would introduce myself.
At this moment I am 5'9" and 93 kilos- I started induction last week and dropped three so far. I am pleased with that- helps me stay focused. I also joined a gym close to my house and I have been going five days a week- no excuses.
I am Canadian but I live in Poland. Great Place. And I am fat. Well 40lbs of me is anyway. Last week I was 212- now I am 206- so my goal is around 155-160- in this range anyway.
I have had issues with food in the past- namely bulemia and big time emotional eating- now I am really trying to focus on what is important and stay on track. I haven't cheated- don't want to cheat- I think I have figured out what is important.
I may be rambling a bit- but I think that if I write it so people can see it- then it helps to keep me focused on my goal.
Many people here have such amazing stories and the photos are such inspiration- perhaps one day, after the first 10 kilos, I will have enough courage to post some photos- for the past 8 years I have been hiding from a camera- time to change that.
So good luck to everyone, good luck to me and can't wait to read about the success of others and am anxious to write about my success!!

Hi there and welcome. Take some before pictures as soon as you can even if you don't post them. Trust me, I shyed away from the camera for years and now I would kill for some pictures of what I used to look like. The pic in my signiture is the only one I have to remind me, and I had to get it from an old drivers licence..... Good luck..........

Welcome back to Atkins and the board! Kudos to you for taking control again. You won't regret it.
It's great that you're going to the gym too. If you stick to the plan and get in that all important exercise, you'll be a loser for sure, very quickly.

Happy Atkineering!
