    Hello everyone!

    Hello Everybody,
    Ive been on the board here for a couple of days on atkins for just about three weeks! I just wanted to introduce myself...I am a Mom of two beautiful children a little boy and a little girl...I am 21 years old and recently graduated from college. I am a Early Childhood Educator, however at this moment I am back at school again doing a psychology and counselling course, which will lead me to be a counsellor in whatever area I so choose. I also have a very supportive and loving husband, who is such a great Dad! We started dating when were 11 and have been in love ever since.

    I have always been a couple pounds overweight...nothing noticable until I had children and then BOOOOOM I gained 100 pounds!!! So, I am here to have the support to do that! I have NEVER been comfortable talking about my weight and I am so happy that I feel comfortable to let it all out here. This reminds me of a big family holding no judgements, because we are all in this together. I cant wait to be the person I want to be on the outside, to match the person inside!

    I am looking forward to getting to know you all...and thanks for all your support!!!

      Welcome to the ADBB family~~~fantastic support & knowledge here! Congrats on your loss thus far! Post often, ask questions, start a journal & join a challenge or two. Did you take your measurements when you started? If not please do as it is wonderful to see the inches drop!!

        I couldn't believe when I read your post that we have a lot in common. I have three children of my own...I am 27 and I didn't gain my weight until I had kids. My son was born 2 years ago and I have held onto all 60 pounds that I gained during my pregnancy. I am on my 5th day of induction and I am determined to get down to a healthy weight. My friend told me about this website and I have found it very helpful. Good luck on your weight loss and I look forward to talking to you again.

          Welcome aboard the Atkins train! You have accomplished so much at an early age and I believe that you will do very well on the Atkins way of eating. 28 pounds is fantastic!
