Good Afternoon and happy Family Day! (Ontario)
I always did dislike introducing myself but I have a feeling that the more involved I am the more likely I am to suceed.
I am a 26 year old female who has a very busy though inactive lifestyle. When I add the fact that 70% of my consumable foods are carbs it makes for a horrible combination. Currently I am tipping the scales at 233 Lbs. I know it is time for a complete lifestyle change. I have a friend that started Atkins in November and she is doing a wonderful job. When I saw that the foods she was able to consume were made up of the other 30% of my favorites I decided it was time to go out and buy the book. My friend clearly stated that the 2002 version was the only acceptable one for me to use. After I got a 2002 copy and read it through to the end of the induction phase I decided it was time for some prep and research. I do not start the plan until Feb 25th due to the fact that it will take me approximately that long to restock my pantry with the correct foods and pre-plan my 14-day Induction menu (Not to mention come to terms with having to kick my coffee habit!). I spent a few hours browsing the forums and decided that this was a the place to go for information and encouragement. So here I am.
