Hello!
I once lost weight and went from about 155 to 130. It took about 3 years on and off of diets. I did weight watchers for a long time and then switched over to atkins about 6 months before I got married. DH lost a ton of weight reall quick on the atkins. My weight slowly came off too (the weight I couldnt get off from ww). I got married in September 2004, looked and felt the best I'd ever felt. During the honeymoon, I went downhill and never recovered because of some other issues. I was unhappy with my job and the excitement of the wedding was over. I recommitted to atkins on my 1 year anniversary (September 2005) when I weighed in at 167, my highest weight ever.
I found that when atkins is done right, its the best way of life because you don't go hungry. I even eat a lot more veggies now than I did before. It's also nice because DH can do this way of life too. He would never been able to do weight watchers because it just wasn't enough food.
Nice to meet you guys and good luck!
