  • Just started on May 28th

    Hi! I'm new to Atkins and just introducing myself. I'm a 35 year old with 5 year old twins. After I had my girls I tried South Beach to lose weight. It worked really well. I also worked out everyday which of course helped. At that time I was staying home with my kids.

    Two years ago I went back to work. Now I'm always so tired I don't want to cook. I got in the terrible habit of going to get fast food all the time. I also quit exercising of course. Last summer I worked out some, but I injured my hip which caused me to quit totally. I'm just starting to work out again, but my hip still hurts on occassion. Hopefully it will get better as I lose weight!

    During the last 2 years I have put on 30 pounds. I'd really like to take that off plus 10 or 15 more. I have a couple of friends who had great success with Atkins, so I thought I'd give it a try. The only problem I'm having with it is my total lack of energy. I feel exhausted every day. I thought that was only supposed to last for the first 3 days, but it's been 6 days now and I only feel more tired. Hopefully that will get better! Anyway, I'm going to think positively!

    Welcome to the board!

    You really do feel zapped in the beginning, but you'll get that energy back again. Hang in there!
