Hello, my name is Teddy and I've been a member on the site for over a year. However, I just recently got very serious about getting healthy and losing weight. I am around 21 years old and I play college football. Still, I have been overweight my entire life. I started the Atkins diet in February and haven't looked back. I have had a lot of success so far but I am still fifty pounds away from my goal. I realize that it is not a race and I am looking forward to being at my goal weight next February. I would love to connect with some people on this site. I think that having encouragement is key to success. Thank you for reading!!!
