  • Restarting Atkins ~

    Hi there my name is Cheryl aka Kit~ And here is my before and during pic its my wt loss from 2004 till now.. If I kept with Atkins the first time and realized that it was the eggs making me sick then I would probably of been at my goal right now..buttttttttttt stupid me didn't figure it out till Vick, my hubby, said hey eggs have sulfur in them Cheryl that's what is making you sick as I am alergic to Sulfur..gezzzzzzzzz I am a lame brain huh!! Why didn't I get back on Atkins then??????????? It's the only one that makes since as to why it works and it really does work.. I have learned one lesson tho..Make Atkins a Way Of Life (WOL...never knew that's what that meant before..lol) Anyhow I will not go back to my old ways or else I will get fat again..I am not doing it for my looks like most are..I mean sure that's a great benefit but I am doing it to get the weight off my joints...It won't take away my Rheumatoid Arthrits but if I am too sore and hurting to exercise then I won't gain a ton from lack of exercise..cuz I have heard many times you don't even HAVE to exercise with Atkins and still lose weight..Although I am going to exercise with it as much as I can so I can get the weight off sooner and cuz I feel better in my Fibromylagia when I exercise.. And I am drinking tons of water each day to flush it all out and besides I prefer water, I have well water and its good too..I can't do caffeine anymore, hurts my bladder and so I have that diet peach tea with my dinner but the rest of the time it's water...I hope it melts away this summer so that next winter won't be as bad with all the weight off my joints...The weather changes any time of year hurts me...but the less weight I have on me the better!! I got all this weight from just being sick for years and not knowing what it was, it hurt too much to move...Then I was DX in 2000 and put on high dose steroids, called Predisone for 3 years. Then quit smoking in 03 too.. So it all piled on top of everything i already had...With this new med(expirmental, I 'm a guinnie pig more or less) I am moving a lot easier and do not have to use a cane anymore but i know getting the extra weight off will help a huge amount!!! anyhow keep me motivated fellow losers.. I will need you lots ok.. hugs Kit~

    It makes sence if you eat low carb your not re-fuleing your body and so it HAS to burn fat to give you energy!

A lot of folks just like you in there, come share with us, and lend a hand! We'd love to have you! Congrats for making it back to this way of life. Good job on the water intake too. Watch that peach tea.....make sure it's sweetened with splenda ( )....come on over, can't wait to see the next set of pictures too!!
