I have finally broken the weight barrier

[glo]

Exactly15 months ago, I started the Atkins diet. I weight 200 lbs, and was only 5 feet tall.....Today I weighed in at 133 pounds...for a total of 77 pounds lost....I have been trying to break the 75 pound barrier for two months, and have finally done it. I only have 8 more pounds to go to my goal weight, a weight I truely never thought I would ever achieve....

To anyone who is trying to loose, you can do it. Do not give up. It is a battle, but if I can do it, you all can. I have been extremely overweight for the last 18 years. I can not believe I am almost there....

(I'm thinking of going low-carb - what do you eat for breakfast? I can't imagine eating bacon & eggs every morning - what worked for you?)
