Hello, lurker here.. just wanted to say hi and that I too lost 30+ lbs and then got so busy it was easier to eat as everyone else did. Now I feel like I've lost two years of my life and have noone to blame but myself. Ive been reading posts for the past three weeks and have gained so much inspiration that in 13 days Ive lost 9 lbs and it really shows! And this is not my first ,second , or even fifth time Ive started this diet...so it can be done. Thanks to everyone who posts... and I have gotten so many ideas from the food porn board that I spend more time looking then eating! Good luck everyone and try to remember that the unhealthy food your " dying for" wont make you happy (and you know it better than anyone!) and if you eat it you will just feel like crap about yourself later ( and why would you do that to yourself?)

I am really struggling to lose weight. I have always been the "big guy" throughout my life. Most people think I weigh a lot less than I do. I carry my weight well. I need to get things off my chest, so here it goes. Please be patient.

I am a former athlete with pretty good genetics. I was raised to eat more than enough because I was a growing boy and I needed food for energy. The bad habits start young don't they??? Needless to say, I still have those habits today and for some reason I can't break them. I try atkins, and for some reason I end up sabotaging myself somehow, someway. I have a endomorph body type, and like I said, pretty good genetics. From the waist down, very lean. Waist up, train wreck. In my eyes.

I have a weight loss challenge with my younger brother. He weighs six pound less than I do, but he is leaner. More proportionate. We've been doing the challenge for 3 weeks. He has lost 8 lbs. Me, nada. I know I need more discipline, I have to completely cut out the alcohol. I have drinks every now and then, I think it doesn't hurt. Maybe it does. Any advice in this area would be helpful.

Over the years, I've endured the teasing about my upper body. For those guys who aren't tone up top, you know the phrases. Everytime I hear them I cringe. My friends joke around with me, and I act like it doesn't hurt, but it stings. Only once have I taken my shirt off in public. I got teased so badly, I have never done it again. In fact, I don't go to the pool with the wife and kids. That's how bad I feel. I don't want to feel humiliated.

I need help. I have seen people on this board losing a tremendous amount of weight. I need a sample atkins diet. I mean, breakfast, lunch and dinner.

I got my blood work done the other day and the results were pretty good.
BP 120/70, HDL 82, Trig 44. I work out all the time. Doc told me he has never seen an HDL that high.

This may sound like a therapy session, and it kinda is.

Do I need to write down what I eat? Do I need to be that discipline? I don't know. But with the amount of working out I do, I should be 220, which is my goal weight. Right now I am 289.

Someone help. I have wasted years and and alot of emotion energy.
