  • So here we go....

    So I guess I should introduce myself since you guys will be seeing me around here a lot. This is my first time doing Atkins, and its my first time i've really tried to change my eating habits/lifestyle to be quite honest. I have a 1 year old daughter and a 3 week old son, and the best husband in the world!! I am at my highest weight in my life, and I honestly can't believe that I have let myself get like this. I was always a little heavier than most kids/teens but not to bad. I was very athletic and played softball until I was 18 so I was always healthy. My husband spent four years in the marines so he works out constantly still and is in great shape which kind of makes me feel like crap b/c I know that I should be doing those things with him, but instead I just sit in front of the tv and eat stuff that I shouldn't ( god it hurts to tell yourself the truth about your lifestyle)... I just hate what I see when I look in the mirror. and I don't want to live this way anymore. Most importantly though I don't want my current unhealthy lifestyle to effect my kids lives and cause them to be obese/unhealthy. Today is a fresh start for me. I know that it won't be easy, and the weight won't come off over night but i'll get there eventually, and when I do the reward will def. be worth all of the hardwork that i'll have to put in to reach my ultimate goal.

    Welcome! It's always great to see someone looking to start there before & after journey. Myself, i'm on day 5 of induction, haven't cheated and don't plan on doing so. Looking to lose 100lbs also. I lost 110lbs in 9 months a few years ago, but i treated it like a diet instead of a lifestyle and well i'm back again!

    This is a great site with great folks! You can find any & all support here.
    Look forward to reading about your results in no time at all

      Welcome to the board. I know it seems like a gigantic task ahead of you but just take it one day at a time. Be sure to read the DANDR and check out the forum on doing Atkins. You might also check out the Century Club for people who have over 100 pounds to lose.

      You can do it and we are here to help you all the way, so join in, ask any and all questions you have and let us know how you are doing.
