Hi all. New to these forums, though this will be my second time through the Atkins Diet. I did fairly well my first time around, but gained the weight back (and more) when I went off the diet. This time around, I realize that it will take a lifestyle change to really make a difference in my health (and weight) and am committed to getting it done!

As the nickname implies, I'm just an all-round big guy. 6' 3" tall, and "big like bull" as my grandmother used to say.

I run another web forum (unrelated to weight loss) and one of the Moderators there pointed me in this direction So glad I found this place!

I look forward to getting to know some of you, and hope y'all will cheer me on as I learn to juggle work, marriage, travel, health & other lifestyle issues!
