  • It's been a month

    Hello every1 well I can't wait to start my adkins diet after I have
    this little guy (Hayden)!! I found out that c-section is looking more
    and more that it's going to happen. I am almost 33 weeks and he is
    still completley breeched and I dont think he has any intentions on
    turning.Not only is he breeched he is also facing the wrong way to.
    My other 3 children were head down in the 20th week or so.
    Anyway I have gained 8 lbs this pregnantcy so far BUT my starting
    weight was already a whopping 250-252 so I am 260 now(sighs)!
    If I do get an csection how long does it it take to start feeling good
    enough to exercise walk ect? And can I start atleast the eating part
    after I have him (I will not be breast feeding) of the diet and still lose
    without exersiceing until I heal?
    Any tips would be great for starting out?
    I havent really gave adkins a chance I did it for like 4 days a few tears ago
    then I did the slim fast and subway and lowfat diest and of course they
    didnt work either!So I am hoping to stick with this diet and see results to
    keep me motivated to lose 100 lbs.My mini goal is to get under 200 then
    my ideal weight 140-150 for my built (I have big boobs lol)
    well hope to hear from yas and please help me escape from this fat body
    that I have carried around for 20 years! NIAPAGE

    Congrats on the baby! Hope the c-section goes well. You'll want to ask your DR how long you should wait after the surgery before exercising, even then you might just want to start by taking walks. While you are waiting for baby to come, go ahead and find yourself a copy of 2002 Dr A's New Diet Revolution and read the whole book and you'll understand why this diet works when others don't and that info will help you to stick with it. Best wishes!

      A C section is major surgery it will take a bit before you feel like doing anything! I had one with my twins. Then i had a blood clot, yada yada yada....
      the best recommendation is just do what the doctor says. There will be plenty of time for atkins later on, its not going anywhere , so don't worry! I wish you the best of health to you and baby and we'll see you when you're ready, we'll be waiting to hear from you!!

        Thank you 2 for the post and tips. I know it takes to a while
        to get well after surgery but I can start the eating part of it.
        Since I am not a big veggie eater(dont like hardly any) can I
        add small portions of fruit?
