Hi everybody,

I've been lurking around here for a few days, trying to figure out how to write an introduction.

Not much to say about myself, I am focused on the Atkins - Induction Phase and doing my best to lose at least 140-150 lbs. My short-term goal is to weigh 250 lbs by Dec 31, 2003.

I have always been heavy and with that unhappy, but since I started this WOL - I feel in control of my weight. I started the plan on April 1st, 2003 and haven't cheated yet.

Funny thing is, I have no desire to eat any of the forbidden foods (bread, pasta, sweets, etc).

Don't know how much I can contribute to this forum, but I will try.

Peace everybody.

Glad to meet you! You have come to the right place for support and encouragement!

Welcome! Glad you stopped lurking in the shadows to join us. Congrats on the weigh loss so far!

Be blessed,
Tanya

I'm glad to meet you! Looking at your stats, it certainly looks as though you have this way of eating all figured out. Congratulations on your success so far!

Hi Parasite

Welcome to the TDC. Looks like you are doing great if you have lost over 50 pounds since the start of April. May you achieve your target of another 50 in the next 6 months.

I know what you mean about not missing, bread, potatoes, pasta, etc. I'm just the same.

Continued success.
