Day 1 to a new me
Hello everyone,
My name is Anne. I'm starting induction today and decided to start Atkins based on seeing how my mom lost 25 pounds in 4 months and looks great. She is still on Atkins doing maitenance and looks fantastic - she feels great too. She is an inspiration for me to take a good look at myself and realize that I too can take control of how I look and feel.
I was always average and weighed 135 pounds when I started college. By graduation I was at 148. By my wedding 3 years later I was 157. Now, 1.5 years later I am 171 and not willing to go any further.
I just started a new job and feel like this is a new start all together for me. I would give anything to be comfortable in my skin and my clothes again. Nothing I own fits quite right and I hate spending money on clothes when I am hoping to lose the weight. There was a time I would look in the mirror and think, "dang, I look pretty good" and now I just cringe at what I see looking back at me. How did I get here --- probably had to do with getting marriend and as they say, "letting myself go".
I hope to gain support from these forums to keeping positive and keeping myself in control. I know I can do it!
