  • New member / newish mom

    Hi Everyone! My name is Angela, and I am from New Jersey.
    I just turned the big 3-0 in December.
    I have a 10 month old baby girl who is the light of my life (along with her Daddy)
    I gained 42 pounds during my pregnancy (not counting the 20 I gained while trying). I dropped 30 pounds right away thanks to gallbladder surgery but the rest is just stuck here. I finally woke up the other morning and said "Shelby will be 10 months old and I still have all this weight" That's when I decided to turn to Atkins. My DH is doing it with me, so that helps.
    Today is Day 2 on the diet, and I'm starting to get that headache I've read about. I've done my research on atkins.com and of course this website. I have the book on order.
    Yesterday on my first day I weighed 202.5; I was 162 on my wedding day 2 1/2 years ago. So 40 pounds will make me very happy.
    Just wanted to introduce myself and say hello, and thank you for any future suport I may be asking for!

        Angela,

        I just wanted to stop by and say hello and welcome to the bb. I'm so happy that you've decided to take this step because it's such a great way to lose that extra weight. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.
