  • Hallo from the lurking Sister!

    Good afternoon everyone,



    I am Karin’s lurking sister. After reading her introduction, I thought that I should stop lurking and introduce myself.

    After having my first son (9½ years ago) Karin gave me a copy of the Atkins diet she got from a friend. We both went on the diet with great results. But, not watching what I was eating, I slowly gained the weight again.

    About 2 years ago, I bought the Atkins Diet Revolution Book and started again, loosing weight steadily. But before I could reach goal weight, I fell pregnant with my second son. Oh no!!! I gained 25kg (about 55 pounds). And so the struggle began.

    My sister and I started Induction again, and so far so good. It is nice to have someone you can talk to and gives you support when needed.


    I must say, when I saw the “new” Atkins site, I was very disappointed and all hope went down the drain. I used to love reading success stories and looking at the photos. That was my inspiration. But after finding this site, the inspiration is back – thank you!!

    Well, I must get back to doing my work – only 1 hour to go!!

          Hi Tania

          I was disappointed in the Atkins site too - but there's loads of success stories and before and after pics here that I find really help to keep me motivated - I hope they help you too!

          Welcome

                Hi Dreamof145 & Sheshy,

                First I have to say that you look great.

                Me and my Sis (KarinP) joined the 6 week exercise challenge and we are hanging around that forum at this stage.
                Like you said, it is nice to have my sister around, especially now with the exercise challenge. We support each other, and that is great to have someone close that can motivate you when you’re down. I also enjoy ADBB, and girls like you just inspire me to loose my weight and get healthy again.

                See you around!!
                Tania
