12th day of induction

[brandi2387]

Hello everyone, this is my first time on atkins or any low carb diet. I recently had a baby and I gained pretty close to 70 lbs. Now 5 1/2 months later I'm left FAT FAT FAT! I felt as if I was going into a little bit of a depression. My bf and mom keep telling me (you just had a baby). Well she'll be walking and talking before to long and Im still heavy. I decided something has got to give.

A friend of mine loaned me her Atkins book and I decided to try it.

I've lost 11 lbs so far & I have quite a ways to go but I'm feeling confident that I'll get to my goal weight in no time. Atkins is great!

Re: 12th day of induction

Congratulations on your loss this far and on making the decision to start Atkins. Once your induction period is over (the 2 week induction plan) your weight loss will slow down so don't get upset when it happens, this is a normal part of weight loss.

To make sure you are continuing to loose make sure you drink at least 64 ounces of pure water daily (nothing added), exercise, take a good multivitamin and make sure you're only eating foods on the acceptable foods list.

Good luck to you .. congrats also on the baby.
