I'm 61 years old. I have 4 children and 5 grandchildren. they're the reason I get out of bed in the morning. I used to live for my job and my fanily. But in 2005 I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis and lost any hope of ever working again. It was a real jolt. I only have 36% of my lung capacity. I sit in a chair most of the day. The Dr says I need a heart and lung transplant but I can't even get on the list if I don't lose 120 pounds. I decided to ty Atkins because I never feel hungry. I have lost 13 lbs so far. I'm trying hard to stay on it.
