I'm a southern boy and proud of it. I have chf and triple bypass operation.after the surgery I was told I have chf and struggle with my weight constantly. I  got up to 394 lbs. and had to start going to a chf clinic. they said I had to lose some weight and told me to go on a low carb diet, I tried atkins but the recipes and the rules were just to much. then I was scrolling you tube and saw a video by Doug and now I have read the book and I am down to 362. lbs and want to get back to 200.lbs  sorry for the long post but I had a lot to say.

Welcome to the FTS family, Allen!!!  :) :) :) :) :) :)

After decades of yo-yo dieting that ended with metabolic syndrome,
FTS came to the rescue for me.

If you commit to losing that unwanted FAT, FTS will do it for you.
And if you ever need support, we're here to help you any way we can. :)

Hi Allen! I just saw your post so wanted to also welcome you to the group. How's the progress going?

I was here a few years ago and lost 80 pounds, and now I'm back again to get 20 off by sometime in early February. This group is great for accountability and support.

Hi Allen & Mrs V.  I was using FTS in 2012 & lost 40 lbs.  It was wonderful!  It is a great plan & a way to live for the rest of your life.  However, I met a great guy, got married. & forgot all that I learned from Doug.  So here I am 15 over goal.  I found FTS again and am excited about getting back on the program.  It's so easy to follow (VS Adkins).  I started on Monday and today is Wednesday and I have lost 2.4 lbs already.  WooHoo!  Keep positive, Allen.  It DOES work.  Keep reading all of the success stories to keep motivated.  I'm going to share this with my friend who is in TOPS....and has lost nothing.  She's going to be so impressed!
