My current weight is at 267 and I'm about 5" tall. Of course, I know what I look like but I never feel that I "look" like I weigh that much. Even a few friends are completely surprised by my actual weight and they say I must carry it well. (What else are they gonna say though right????)
I know everyone on this board is on different WOE. I have decided to go back on Atkins but would like to know if anyone here has tried modifying it at all. I'm concerned about the fat intake with that WOE but am still would like to cut out the "bad carbs". I'd like to get my carbs from fruits and veges, which I know are limited on that program. Does anyone have any advice on a "low fat low carb" program at all? (modified Atkins or maybe another WOE/program altogether?)
Let me finish by saying, I know I will not drop the amount of weight I need to lose in a few days/weeks/months. I understand I have spent my entire life packing these pounds on, so I'm not looking for a "quick fix". I'm looking for a healthier way to live.
Glad to be back and looking forward to any replies...
Have a great rest of the weekend!

I can relate to how you feel with the heartburn and such.I never realized that I was living off of Tums until my DH mentioned that I was constantly having to buy more all the time...ugh!
As far as a modified Atkins...maybe look into South Beach.I've not tried either,but I have heard that South Beach is a little more relaxed on what carbs you can have,though don't quote me on that...I may be completely wrong.
Hope to see more of you =)
