Hi everyone, my name is Amy, and I would LOVE to join this group! I am at my highest weight ever (after three kids in four years) and I really am excited to get ahold of it. Atkins is working great for me, as it doesn't give me the "shakes" like the other low fat diets do.
I started on Jan 1st at 242 and after one week of induction I'm at 232! I'm sure a lot of it is water, but it sure is nice to see the scale move in the right direction for a change.
I look forward to hearing your stories and helping to motivate eachother on those tough days.

Amy

Hi everyone! I'm not down very much as we had unexpected company for 3 days, really interferes with this WOE! Just as I had myself psyched up to do this. Anyway a couple of pounds is better than nothing. Hope to really get into it this next week.

I'm down 3 lbs from my Wednesday start, so it's going pretty well so far.

I hope you guys don't mind, but I did a little reformatting on the chart so it's easier to look at and change your weight in the weekly weigh-ins. The chart's in a fixed width font, so for quoting please use Courier New.

Is it too late to join? I started induction again strictly for the new year, but would really like a place to check in with others and really help myself to focus. I'm moving abroad in just over 60 days and I want to lose more weight by then. I just need a reminder or push some days of my goal. This thread was on top and looks good

Thanks! So we're supposed to copy out the table to keep abreast of all the goals and/or status, right?
