  • Introducing ME!!

    Here we go!I am completely new to ANY diet. I have never tried to loose weight, it just always seemed to "fall" off. I will be 23 tomorrow, and after 3 kids the baby weight is sticking around this time. After my first child I dropped down to my average BMI but now after having my 18 month old and 4 month old, its been a challenge. I am now in the obese BMI category! Drinking soft drinks is going to be my biggest downfall, but I have assigned myself to only drink water. I WILL do it too! I have a goal to loose 60 lbs. in a year but don't know if thats too ambitous?? My motivation is to no longer have my 6 year old ask me why I'm fat, and to be able to run and play with my kids without being out of breath after 2 minutes! Atkins seems like my best bet to a healthy life, especially with all the recipes everyone posts! So here I am in all my 230 lb. glory! I will be back to my average BMI as opposed to *gasp* OBESE!!!!!

    Welcome to the Board!

    The little ones are very honest, aren't they?

    Regarding the time you need to lose the weight, it's better not to make any plans. The last lbs should come off really slow, so it's better not to hurry things. Just enjoy your new way of eating and follow it correctly -- then not only will the weight come off, but your general health will also improve.
