hello!
Hi everyone!
Just a quick introduction (although I'm generally more of a lurker than a poster) to say hello!
I restarted Atkins in March of this year and although my weight is creeping down by inches I feel absolutely wonderful. This is not my first attempt at Atkins although I've never figured out why I quit the last few times because it works so well! I suspect my slow weight loss is in part due to my past (failed) attempts at Atkins but I'm trying to break up with my scale and focus instead on how much more energy I have and how much stronger I am (I've started weight training and I adore it). Despite the slow rate of loss I've not been out of ketosis since the third day of Atkins and I'm trying to have faith that my body will know what it's doing (this part is even harder than trying to end my obsessive relationship with my scale!
).
My goal is to lose 150lbs (I've already lost 15, yay!) but I'm equally focused on my health and how comfortable I feel in my skin. My weight has gone steadily up since puberty and I'm committed to reversing that trend, by gum!
Be well,
Califia
