My name is Tuney, and I'm an overeater

[Tuney]

hahahah - j/k

hope you guys are doing well. i have been struggling with weight all of my adult life. the weight gain started after i got married (it's funny, but true). I have 3 wonderful kids, 7/5/4 and have been married for 12 years.

not only do i want to lose weight for my health, but also we are planning on taking our second family disney trip in october. although disney is very nice in having "pooh"-sized rides and i didn't have issues in riding anything i wanted, i know it would be easier to get around.

i'm looking for support throughout this journey. i will say that my will power is poor; so support and prayers are required

Welcome to ADBB!

You're reading Dr. Atkins New Diet Revolution (2002), right?

Hi,

I agree it's so much easier at the parks if you get off some weight. I'm sure with Atkins help I can get to goal and be wearing out the kids zooming through the parks.

We are going back in June so I hope to have some weight off by then. Not sure my poor feet can take another 14 days of theme park fun at this weight. LOL

Welcome to the Atkins Board.

To get started, make sure you read the book - it will give you the knowledge you need to get to your goal. If you can’t find a copy locally of the 2002 Dr Atkins New Diet Revolution (DANDR) check online at www.half.com or www.amazon.com – I got a “used” copy recently for less than $5.00 including shipping not long ago.

Eat a variety of foods listed on the acceptable food list http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/atkins-low-carb-dieting-faqs/6781-what-foods-can-eaten-induction.html. Make sure you eat a variety of foods and vegetables and count all “net carbs”. Plan your meals for a few days so you have everything in your home and you won’t be tempted to eat something not allowed. Check Linda's recipe site it will help keep you from eating the same thing over and over -- http://www.genaw.com/lowcarb/menus.html.

Exercise, take a non-iron multivitamin and drink a minimum 64 ounces of pure water (nothing added), daily. Start a journal, it's a great place to get everything out in the open, be accountable to yourself - you'll also meet some great people there! http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...journal-chats/. There’s something for everyone here!

If you need anything we’re here to help you!! Good luck to you!
