    Hello Everyone:+)

    Just thought I should introduce myself seeing as I easedrop so much here reading everyone else's posts....lol

    I live in Western Australia and I have been here for 2 years. I was born and rasied in Sunny California I'm 27 (soon to be 28 eekk!!) and I have 2 boys ages 5 and 9.

    I have been on Atkins for 1 months exactly and I have lost 12 pounds which puts a little dent in the entire 80 I want to lose.

    Had a nasty day today as I was asked if I was pregnet!! Not a good booster to my mood. It always seems to happen like that too. It's when your having a really good day and feeling somewhat pretty and BAMM some ding dong says something like that!! LOL Oh well I wont let it get to me as much it wants too:+)

    Can't wait to get to know you all and also cant wait to get to GOAL!!!!

        It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




        I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

                  Welcome!, and don't worry about what that ding-dong said (and who SAYS stuff like that anyways?? "If you're not sure...don't say anything at all" is what my mama always told me!) Anyways, let it just be an inspiration to stay on the Atkins track and before long no one will even know you had the first two kids!

                      Hello Sorsha, and welcome to ADBB and a great way of life (WOL). I can't add much that hasn't been said already. This is definitely a great place, as you already know since you've been reading posts around here already.

                      Keep at it and you'll soon be blowing away everyone with your success story!

                      You can do it, we all can!

                      Calling it GOAL at this point. I'm happy with where I am now and hope to stay there, or maybe even take it down a little more.

                          Welcome, Sorsha. I'm counting you as another Aussie (you're living here), we are scarce on the ground on ADBB. There is also an Australian thread in International.
                          I love WA, we visited for 4 weeks in June 2004, to Perth and south west region, and I visited Geraldton in 1999 for the solar eclipse. Would love to move over there but need to find work first.
                          Good luck with you Atkins, sounds like you're doing well so far.

                              Hi shorsha

                              I remember when one of my aunts walked up to me and said, so when is this baby due.

                              I looked at her and said, I'm not pregnant, I'm fat. Wow nobody made any comment the rest of the day.
