    Day 1 has begun

    I began today. So far I had a 2 egg omelet with cheese, onion, and hamburger in it and a little bit of salsa on top. According to Fitday is was 5 Net carbs total. I also have drank 41 ounces of water so far.

    I weighed and measure and am VERY disappointed with the results, but it was worth it to have my little angel. I'm going to be extra careful about my b/c pills this time around. I don't want another pregnancy to ruin my progress.

    As far as exercise....I won't be beginning any until at least tomorrow. I have to get permission from my doctor to resume the exercise since my c-section. Hopefully I will be allowed tomorrow!

    I'm setting some mini-goals this time around. My first mini-goal is to be able to complete Walk Away the Pounds the 1 mile walk again. While pregnant it got too hard.

    Anyway. I wanted to post about how my day is going so far. I've got a great attitude toward this. I'm ready! I'll update again soon!

    Great to hear you are on your way Amenia
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

          welcome back. Just remember you got a life time to lose those pounds you added having Alex but you only had one chance to grow Alex right

          Once your doc releases you what you got planned for your exercise program?

                Hi there This is my first day too <now your second I suppose>. This is my first attempt at Atkins. My husband is doing it with me, so that will help alot. I just had a baby as well, October 25th. I am small frame, 5'3 and now 146lbs. I weighed 174lbs when I had Sarah, so I DID lose some weight, but now have stalled. I decided I need to do something about it, so here I am! I weighed 130lbs before I had her, so I still wasn't happy with my weight even then. I have always eaten terribly..with tons of carbs in my diet. My goal is to be 115lbs. My pubic symphysis sepparated to a great degree when I gave birth, so I am just finally able to begin exercising. Little Sarah weighed 8lbs 13oz. at birth, so she was a bit large for someone with my frame <is why I sepparated to such a great degree>. My husband weighs close to 300lbs. and is 5' 11". We took pictures today and posted them on the refridgerator to remind us of what we DON'T want to look like. I suppose I should have posted in the newbie/introduction area, but when I seen that I had a 'sister' who just had a baby too, and it was your first day, it inspired me to post here. I look forward to continue reading everyones posts and posting myself, for support.
                I did it!!
