Hello fellow low-carbers!!!!!
 

Hi all,

I just began the Atkin's Dient yesterday and I am hoping very much that it brings me some success. I have never been what you call overweight, but just uncomfortable with myself bouncing back and fourth between 125 and 140 lbs at 5"6 1/2. I'm currentl 140, but am much more comfortable in my own skin at 120-125. So 120 is my ultimate weight goal. I've never tried the low-carb diet before... so I guess I'll have to wait and see what happens. I'm hoping to reach my goal in 3-4 months so it's going to take a lot of hard work and determination. Good luck to all in your weight loss persuits!!!!!

Hi and welcome to the forum

Protien Shakes
 

What does everyone think about Whey Protien? Should I stay away from this?

I'm 58 yrs old and new here but posted to the TDC forum this am. Have never joined a dieters forum before. I guess I have nothing to lose but weight by coming here and "talking" to y'all. I consider this my last chance non-diet. I refuse to go on any diets any more as I have gained over 100 lbs dieting over the last 25 yrs. So I don't diet any more. I watch my food intake and am on Atkins now. I have 1 planned cheat day every 2 weeks and am still losing. Started March 5, 2004.

eric 909 you are a real inspiration, as are all you losers!!!
Do any of you have planned cheat days also? By this age, I know myself well enough to know that I will sabotage any diet I am on if I think that I cannot have certain foods. Therefore i have planned cheat days.
