40's with 50-100 lbs to Lose

I just joined this group.

I'm a 49 yo female with 97 more pounds to lose. I started Atkins around 4/16 and am down13 pounds so far. I have a long way to go and the journey will be tough.

I plan to contribute when I can and when it might be helpful.

I am here for motivation, support and comraderie.

Best of luck to everyone!

Hi and welcome! I joined the site about 6 weeks ago, and I have to say it has been terrific sharing the journey. We have much in common - same age, started at the same weight, and are right now, the same weight again! I tried Atkins in the past, but I just didn't have the strength to stick with it. I lost 83 lbs. in 2005, and slowly gained it all back following a break-up...but here I am again, recommitted and this time forever. Portion control, and it's working. Welcome, and good luck!!

Thanks for the warm welcome.

Best of luck. This time we'll do it!
