Hi, my name is Lisa,
I am new here, I have read many of the posts and they are so encouraging and helpful , I am very happy I have found this group, well this is my second time on atkins my first time was 3 years ago after my divorce I started out at 230pounds lost about 30 pounds by just fasting ( religous reasons) and then started atkins and lost the rest of the weight in about 7 mo that put me at 125 pounds .
I did good maintaining that weight for a long time by only allowing myself to eat (bad carbs ,white flour and sugar) like once a month , and
now sence I have been in my second marriage for near 2 years now I have sadly packed on about 45 pounds
, well I guess its only to be expected when you eat out alot , and my eating habits totally changed after we were married , well out with the old habits and in with the new!
, I know now I must change my eating, I have been so tired and down about my weight for a while now. so today starts day one of atkins for me , I had my 13 yr old daughter take pictures of me ( before pics) and oh my its scary seeing me for who I really am, they say pictures dont lie, well I look like the pillsbury dough girlorboy,lol, well I am praying to find some friends here . and I know this time I will succeed!.
