Hi all - I've been on Atkins for 6 days and I've lost 12 pounds - what a way to start! My husband loves that I'm losing weight and I feel so much better, have more energy to be with my kids!
I had reconstructive foot surgery in the summer of 2001 and had 6 months of sitting on a couch with a cast, recovering. Immediately afterwards, I was pregnant with my first son; and four back-to-back pregnancies later I had ballooned to 213 - my heaviest weight ever for my 5'7" frame. My youngest daughter (and last!) is now 6 months old and weaned from nursing - so I'm ready to do this! I started last Sunday at 195 and this morning I was at 183; goal weight is 140. I used to be about 120 before all of this, so 140 is definitely do-able!
Thanks for everyone else posting their progress - this board is an inspiration!
