  • Hi...I'm new too and very excited

    My name is Dee and I'm 32. I've been overwieght ever since I had my son who is three now. I started the induction on Monday Nov.20th and feel good. I started at 176lbs and now wiegh 168lb. I don't see the difference yet, hopefully in a couple of more weeks it will start to show. I'm going to take my measurements today...I'm not much for the scale. Oh yeah, I am 5'6" and my goal is 145. I love to exercise but I've been feeling a little drained lately. However I'm determined to get to the gym today. Anyway, I figured this forum would be the key to my success because doing it alone doesn't seem to work for me. Thanks to everyone out there...you've really motivated me to do this for myself.
    Sincerely,
    Dee

        Yes, Welcome
        Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
        he said, 'Don't count calories.'
