  • Hello from Ireland

    Hi All,

    I've been a lurker here for a good few days, decided its tme to join this great community and tell a bit about myself. I'm born Latvian and moved to Ireland 7 years ago loving it I'm a 27 years old female, 5'2" height and 75kg currently.

    I have already started Induction last Tuesday went through things like headache, lowered energy levels, fatigue, feeling generally s**ty... Looking at a before and after pictures here gave me motivation and I sticked to my plan, so I'm on my 4th day today feeling great!

    I started my weight loss journey @ 92kg (210 pounds) last september and went down to 78kg in a year by eating healthily, counting calories, but hit a plateau now and decided to try some different approach like Atkins and it worked!

    My weight loss so far 3kg in 4 day, say I'm delighted is to say nothing!

    Thanks to all of you, keep up the good work!

    Cheers

            Hi everyone,

            Thank you so much for the warm welcome.

            When I decided to go on Atkins I got so many negative respond from people saying that its wrong and will damage your health, great I found this site and read the book to finally make up my mind and glad I did.
            I can see results after a week of dieting only which is great motivation, can't remember the time when I could fit in clothes size 14 (probably 12 in US)

            Looking forward to the rest of my journey!

            Thank you all,
