Looking for accountability

[MomToEli]

Hi! I'm MomToEli, aka Sandy. I'm a stay at home, homeschooling mom of one ds 10. I gained a whole lot of weight over the years since we started trying to have Eli. I gained about 5 pounds with each of 7 miscarriages before having him, then seem to have been trying to add as much weight as he does each year, as I'm now about his size overweight

I've done my own version of Atkins many times without much success. I say my own version because I simply have not done it by the book. That means I'm new to Atkins! lol I am very familiar with low carb, though. I've spent the last year fighting against a online diet fraud and scammer and totally neglected what I had intended to do with the last year, which is get this weight off. I refuse to put it off any longer.

I am now at the end of Day 10 of a nice and clean induction. I did join a challenge on another board thus weighed 1/1/09, day 6, and had lost 4 pounds at that point. I am looking for a place that doesn't take cheating lightly and will call me on it if I start trying to do Atkins my way again. I know of too many people for whom the real program worked (works) and lots of you are right here on this board.

So, hope you are all ready for me I'll be looking to jump right in. I'm not shy
