I am new to Atkins

[tfreel]

Hi I am a newbie here and have also been lurking for awhile. I have posted a couple of times in the 14 day induction. I am on day 10 of my induction and have to say this is the FIRST time I have NEVER cheated on a diet! I am so proud. I am a mother of 5 of my own, a step-daughter and my oldest daughter's best friend so I stay very busy. After the birth of my youngest daughter at 26 weeks I gained soooo much weight and have been unable to take it off but had NO problem putting it on. I used to blame all of the intense situations surrounding her birth and being in the hospital for a year, but in the end it is all ME! SO watch out I am ready! I have lost 9 pounds so far and feel terrrrrific! Good luck to everybody and thank you to every one that has already been so helpful and supporting! I Love IT!

Welcome tfreel, I've seen some of your other posts. Being honest with yourself about where your weaknesses are is one of the hardest parts of this journey....and addiction to sugar and bad carbohydrates are the other part. You are well on your way.

Thank you and really posting here and just reading other people's posts has been so helpful. I have really been able to come to terms with some things in just a short time. I really think it is because I just feel better! I dunno and thank you by the way
