Hi all,

One of the things that I have found amazing about the whole weight loss process is how the amazingly unrealistic goals we set for ourselves actually become realistic. I was 300 pounds and set myself a dream goal of 220 pounds thinking that I would never really achieve it. Well I reached that this week and now realise that I still have a ways to go. I've adjusted my goal to 200 pounds now and will reevaluate when I get there.

I used to believe that it was too hard to lose weight...but it is amazing what you can do if you just stick at it. Atkins is fantastic for this as it is relatively easy to stick to...way easier than low fat...and it works!

These forums are great...I've been an avid reader for a while and thought I would share my experiences. Thanks to you all.
