    New to board

    Hey everyone! My name is April. I am a 27 year old stay at home mommy to a 22 month old. I have been on Atkins before, but that was before baby. I gained 70 pounds while pregnant and am still hanging on to about 30 pounds of it. I would like to lose a total of about 50 pounds.
    I am currently on day 3 of induction and have already dropped 6 pounds! I forgot how fast it can come off sometimes while on this! It definitely makes me want to stick with it!

    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!
