Going to succeed this time

[Bellarosa73]

Hello,

My name is Tammy, I am a 34 year old mother of 4. I love to eat, I love sweets and fried foods which probably equates to my pre Atkins weight of 197. I have succeeded on Atkins in the past after the birth of my son 12 years ago and then after the birth of my daughter 8 years ago. Since then however I have not been able to stick to this diet, I go on last a couple of days sometimes even a week and then I just get discouraged or sick of the same old foods. BUT, I have told myself that this time I am going to take it day by day. Today is day number 2 and I am not going to speculate ahead just do what I can today.
I started walking about 2 months ago, even bought myself the Nike Plus system and have walked just under 100 miles in a little under two months not helping the weight loss so I am definitely consuming more than I am expelling. Had a talk with myself so I am going to stick to Atkins and continue to walk and we will see what happens.
I am so greatful for this sight.

Re: Going to succeed this time

welcome back to this woe. you sound very determined, and i wish you much success. i thought i would invite you to join a buddy group that is in the main forum on the board. there are some great people there and we love having new members. there are many of us who post daily about everything from our diet, exercise, and about our live's in general. it's been a great support system for me, and if you are interested, just stop in and say hello. we would love to have you.

keep up the exercise too, 100 miles in two months is great. i wish you continued success with that also.

keep us posted on how you are doing.

Hi Bellarosa73, you sound like an amazing woman. 4 kids an only weigh 197! You could weigh 300 so good for you for watching out so far. Reading your post, i worried about the same thing in regards to the food. When you are able, head over to the recipe section of this site. You can make some awesome food, your family will love. Guaranteed!
