I think the problem is that people think fries, pizza, fast food, sugary/carby foods are "normal"........ People need to realize there is NOTHING "normal" about eating the crap that the majority of people eat. Fruits, veggies, meat, dairy, etc...THOSE are normal foods.

Bingo. :ThumbsUp

I reached my first "goal weight" of 190 about 2 years ago. ( I am 5'11" and have large bones, and had been at 260 for years!) I gradually added back carbs, til I was between 50 adn 100 a day. I ate fast food ONCE in a while, not all the time. I also had popcorn at the movies, I just made sure that the rest of teh day I was exceptionally good. You know the saying, everything in moderation? That is what worked for me. I didn't put any wwight back on till I got preg with my new little one. I know it will work as well this time around

:icondance I LOVE ATKINS, and im prepared to give up carbs, living on this forever will be fine with me, as im sure once every 2 weeks ill be able to have a Big mac, or something that i like, i really dont mind giving up carbs, being skinny is so much more important to me and nothing feels better then getting that scale and seeing that your at a healthy size.
