Very new here just started Atkins (although I have had success with it before). Need to lose at least 150. Was just diagnosed with sleep apnea and now get to go to bed each night with a breathing machine (CPAP) until I get the weight down.

Wish me the best pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Welcome! Glad to see another smiling face! This is the place to find the support to make things as easy as possible when learning a new way of life: good people and good food.

(I woke this morning and reread this message and had to make a few typing changes. Therre is no Q in Welcome and there is an H in THIS.) So much for pre-dawn messages by me!)

HI Richard

I am also new here and just registered today. I have been doing LC for just a couple of weeks. I too have sleep apnea and use a CPAP machine. One of my early goals it to be able to quit using it. I know by previous experience that I should be able to do it when I get down to about 275. I can hardly wait!!
I would like to lose at least 160 lbs myself. Let me know if you have any questions about the CPAP and I will try to help you if I can.

Hi Richard, welcome to the TDC. This forum is great and probably the best thing I've learned here is to treat this WOE (way of eating) as a lifelong change, not as a diet. Since you've done it before, I'm sure you'll get right back on the wagon and be off and losing. Good luck to you!

Hi Richard! Welcome back aboard.

Yea, sleep apnea kind of scuks. On the other hand it's a relatively new technology and thank God for it. So instead of ppl telling you to just shut up and stop snoring, finally there is a real treatment for this medical condition. For those of us that have it genetically passed down, it's a miracle. Can you imagine going literally sleepless (deep dreaming sleep)? As little as 10-15 years ago there was no treatment. Ppl just suffered, and were blamed because they snored loud (as if it was their own fault).

Welcome again and good luck!
