We're all in this together!

[mybelle37]

Well...I'm starting my atkins journey. My fiancee and I started together 11/26/07. We are both looking to look good at our wedding 10/4/2008. I have always dreamed of being at size 12 on my wedding day. After trying WW a few years ago, but giving up after moving to a new city, then a weight loss clinic and only drinking protein shakes for 2 months I'm ready for my next journey. I have had limited success with other plans and am ready for the ulimate success. I am hopeful this time around becuase my fiancee is committed with me! I have a long way to go, but after two days I'm in ketosis and hope to reamin there for awhile.

I think I'm finally ready for the rest of my life to start!

Re: We're all in this together!

Welcome! I noticed your very first post was to join a challenge! That's awesome! I knew right then that you mean business! Atkins is definitely the way to change your life forever. Much tastier than drinking protein shakes, for sure. I started out at 296 and 10 months later, I was down 102 pounds. The last pounds have come off slow, but I have enjoyed the journey. I love the way I eat now and would never go back to the way I did eat.

See you on the challenge!

Sunny!

Welcome Mybelle! And your fiance too. This is the best place you can come to get motivation, encouragement and friendships with people who understand and want to see you meet your goal. Have you and your fiance read the book, Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution, edition 2002? The best thing you can do is to read it together and make a written plan on how you are going to incorporate the program into your unique life-styles. Take your measurements and have fun experimenting with the foods and exercise. I wish you both the best of luck and a beautiful healthy future! Best wishes. Keep us posted on your progress.
