Hi Everyone! I started out need to lose 103 pounds! I'm down to less than that now....so can I still join? I lost 15 of those pounds dieting like mad on a low-fat diet ( only took me 2 years..LOL). In January of this year I started Atkins and have lost 14 pounds ( I weigh in tomorrow! Wish me luck, i've been on a stall for the last 4 weeks) I just found this site last week and have been so happy with the encouraging words and people I have found here. Needing to lose a significant amount of weight does present some challenges though and also raises some questions that I would love to ask. So if its ok, I'll just lurk around and get some tips and motivation from all the people here and maybe peek into some journals too! Would love to hear from you all!
