Back On Track After 2 Years
Hello all!
I am a 23 year old female taking college courses full time in Cleveland, OH and working full time in Cleveland, OH. Yes, that's a very busy day!
I'm very excited to have found this site. I did Atkins for the first time 2 years ago and had tons of success, but slipped back into old habits unfortunately. I have extreme hypoglycemia and really a low carb, no sugar, high protein diet is the best thing I can do for my body. My doctor told me if I don't start doing something now, I'll end up with Diabetes by age 35. Very scary!
I am just ending on my 4th week of the diet, and I'm still on induction. I love eggs and just about every kind of meat imagineable so Atkins is perfect for me in a sense. My major struggle is eating salad everyday, and usually I end up avoiding lettuce and eating green peppers and mushrooms.
I lost 8 lbs in the first two weeks, and have been losing about 2 lbs each week since. I guess the main reason I looked up this site is because I was trying to figure out when I should start adding thiings in. I've been having sugar free jello every other day this week, and it hasn't seemed to influence my weight loss. I have been exercising 3-4 hours a week which is extremely rewarding and it also seems to jump start weight loss if I'm in a rut.
If anyone has any advice I'd appreciate it!
Thanks,
Saty
