Thank you so much for creating, maintaining this site and just plain being here. I don't like to call Atkins a diet, because it's not something you ever really go off of. This is how we all should eat for life. We are the lucky ones for having found this plan and realize that it is what works. But we also have to fight the constant bombardment of our stressful lives and the ease of grabbing a cheeseburger and fries while we rush through our lives. No, we need to take better care to remain on our Atkins journeys and support each other through it.
I will be 43 years old on May 12th. All my life I was thin. I could eat anything and not gain a pound. Then after my two boys were born a year apart, I would go between 126 and 142, depending on the time of year or whatever. Then at 37, I started living an unhealthy lifestyle and just destroyed my body. For a long time I tried every diet known to man. Nothing worked. I was so scared, my doctor checked my thyroid three times.
Nope, it was my fault. Late in 2008, I found Atkins and it started working! I've been messing around for the last couple months, but now I'm serious.
I weighed 197 today and I want to be 189 by my birthday.
So thanks for being here, because I really need your support. I hope along the way, I can be support to all of you as well.
Marianne
