Hi everyone! Yes, I would love to look as slim & trim as I was in my cheerleader days 10 years ago (and I totally WILL) but the real reason I'm starting Atkins is because...I hate how I feel in my clothes.
The worst feeling in the world is staring every morning at a closet chock full of designer duds and day after day only pulling out the comfy black pants that might be a tad too tight but they're the ones that still have a little give so I know after lunch they won't strangle my midsection!
Last January I ran my first 1/2 marathon with the most amazing girlfriends ever! Wait, make that....I walked nearly the entire thing and by the time I finally finished about 45 min after everyone else, the glimmer of the accomplishment had seriously waned.
So November 16th marks our 2nd "run" and this time....I want to RUN! And have a respectable finish. I know that if I shed the pounds...it will be that much better for me on the run. Overall goal is to lose 40lbs but I would be thrilled if in 3 months for race time I was down 20.
Wish me luck as I hopefully begin the journey to become one of you fabulous Atkin-doers!!!
