Hi Everyone,

I am a twenty-something university student who decided to start off the new term with a new lifestyle.

I’ve never used a forum before, but I’ve also never been able to reach and maintain a healthy body weight on my own—so I thought I would take the plunge.

Last year, I did Atkins and quickly lost over 30 pounds. I know the plan works if you follow it, but sticking with it was my problem! I’ve put back on the weight, with a little more to spare.

I am really looking forward to being involved in this community. I had lurked around the site for a while, and everyone seems so very helpful and encouraging. If only I had found you guys last year, when my willpower was waning and my motivation was movin’ on out!
