    Hello All

    I have been lurking for a bit got lots of good tips from everyone and found lots of recipes. Or rediscovered I should say. I was on atkins Jan. 2005 lost 20lbs then found out I was pregnant. I didn't stick to atkins or anything my whole pregnancy because I was way too sick to eat. I lost 30 lbs then and was hospitalized. So when I was able to eat again...I DID! I have luckily only gained to my prepregnancy weight and nothing extra. I'm so ready for a change! I'm 31 and feel 91 so something needs to give. heh

    I guess I'll call my self the resident freak. My name is Misty by the way. Mother of 2. I'm slightly tattooed. heh and I wan't to be able to show them off but right now I prefer to hide in big clothes. Ready to toss those out!

    I feel like I know most of you since I've been reading the boards. lol


    *hmm not seeing my signature I'll have to figure that out later*

                into day 6 and still truckin along. I was getting a little discouraged because I did the stupid thing and weighed myself and eh not a lot happening there. I
                am getting my hubby to take the scales and lock them in the storage building tonight. lol Otherwise I feel I MUST weigh myself.

                I also did premeasurements so at least I'll have that to go by. I will weigh after induction.

                anyways I bought a new bottle of ketone stix since my last bottle died/expired. I was afraid I'd see no change but it instantly turned purple. *WOO* and I know I'm not dehydrated because I drink 144 ounces of water a day.

                I love water, always have.

                anyways I just felt like sharing that I finally have a positive sign that it's working. YAY!

                  Hello all. I am still here *waves* I'm only 3 or so lbs till my mini goal. I am so happy! I have lost 25 lbs total (since early May) pre weight loss was 227. I feel 100% better and I never want to turn back. I guess I am one of the lucky ones because cravings have been minimal and I still have to keep a lot of foods I can't eat in the house for my "skinny" family. They are loving the meals I make too though. My husband never knew how much he loved cauliflower before this. lol


                  Just thought I would touch base.
