    6 Years On Atkins!

    January 19 marks my 6th anniversary on Atkins ! What a ride it has been and continues to be!!

    I am so grateful to Dr. Atkins for showing me how to eat great and lose weight AND for encouraging me that "exercise is non-negotiable" ... 6 years ago today I started on my LC journey and stepped into the wonderful world of regular cardiovascular exercise ...MY LIFE HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME!

    I am thankful for all the great support and encouragement ADBB has been to me! I love you guys!!!! Thanks, Tom, for this very special place!

    REMEMBER THIS: IF I CAN DO THIS .. SO CAN YOU!

    DEDICATION ... DETERMINATION ... DISCIPLINE = TOTALLY REVOLUTIONIZED LIFE!

                        What I know:
                        1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
                        2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
                        3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
                        4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

                          Congratulations on your success. What a wonderful testimony to the fact that this WOE/WOL does in fact work.
