  • New to this/A little About me

    Hey everyone,

    Well I finally decided to start Atkins for real this time (I did it once before but didn't do induction right and eventually just gave up) I'm 20 years old and have an almost 5mo. old little girl who is my main motivation for doing this, I want to be active and take her a lot of places this summer, and just generally live a long and healthy life. I am 5 feet 1/4 inches tall and this morning I weighed 163.6 pounds, thats a lot of weight for such a short person to be carrying. I'm glad I found this site because all of what I've read has been encouraging and seeing some of the before and after photos is great. Congratulations to all those that have made the decision to live this lifestyle and I hope to be one of those success stories one day. Thanks for reading =)

            Welcome aboard! Congrats on the little one too! I am new as well and you will find this forum extremely helpful and supportive. Everyone is great and the people really know their stuff. I am only 5'1'' and my heaviest was 160 or so, so I have been in your shoes. I painstakingly and unhealthily got down to 140 over the past two years. It would have been so much better and healthier had I done it this way! I know I will get to a good weight and not put my health at risk.. It will work for you and dont give up. Get on here and ask for help and keep us posted on how you are doing !!!!!

              No, I was for 3 months then unfortunately my body wasn't producing it fast enough and my baby lost a lot of weight so after seeing a lactation consultant and still not having any luck I eventually ran out.

                Thanks everyone, and I'll definitely post any questions or progress I have. Just went grocery shopping and got most of the approved veggies, meat, cheese etc so my fridge is stocked.
