Pre-Start: Breaking Point

I currently weigh 293.4 pounds. Huge. Enormous. Unacceptable. 40 pounds higher than my highest weight a year ago. Only 10 pounds away from 300!

I must lose this weight or decide on a faster way to kill myself.

Current Physical State:

- Ankles hurt

- Back hurts

- Difficult to walk for long periods of time

- Bloated stomach

- Swollen left foot/leg

I am only 25 and this should not be happening. I should be at my peak physical condition, and yet, I am not. I have let myself fall so far. And this has to end and it has to end now.

So, I am embarking on the Atkins' Diet.

This basically means that I can eat (without getting too detailed):

All Meat

All Fish

Eggs

4 Ounces of Cheese

Oils (mainly Olive)

Butter

Sour Cream

I can drink diet drinks, but I must drink at least 64 ounces of water a day.

So... here goes something!
