  • Gonna Get Thin!

    Hi there, I thought I shoulf start here with an introduction to me. I am 49, and started induction a week ago today. I decided I was not going to be fat at 50...I have begun to feel too many negative effects from my extra weight.

    My hubby and I are both pretty active, and enjoy the outdoors a lot. But this summer when we went camping, I found myself hurting every day with aching knees and getting winded much sooner than normal. That was when I decided I was going to try to find a diet that would finally work, so as soon as we got home I began my research.

    After a lot of reading, I settled on the Atkin's approach, and bought the book to tutor myself. This time I am not going to fail. This time I know what to do to lose weight, and know why I have had so much difficulty losing in the past.

    After just one week I have lost 7 pounds, and feel amazingly well. I am not tired, or cranky...I am not hungry all the time, and wanting to eat. I didn't think a diet could be this easy to follow, and without any feeling of deprivation.

    Best of all, my husband decided last night to diet with me once he saw the changes. He started today, so I am not cooking separate meals anymore!

      Good luck to you! I wish my hubby would join me! He admits that he wouldn't be able to control what he eats if I'm not around so he just doesnt' try at all! I'm very worried abut him. I wish you both atkins success!
