Hello All!!!!!
My name is Brittney and I am new on the Atkins board. I found out about Atkins from a few people and decided I would try it. I have never been a "big" girl before but within the last 2 years the pounds have definitely crept up on me. I used to be a slim, nice 135 pounds on my 5'6 frame but now I am 175...nice and thick lol. I have sat and tried to come up with excuse after excuse as to WHY I am this size...but I have finally understood that no one put that fork up to my mouth and made me eat...I am overweight because I did this to myself. So no more whining and crying about it because as my signature says...if your not going to do something about it stop complaining...and that is what I am going to do, stop complaining and get things in motion. I already have the DANDR 2002 book that I see is used on this board so I am going to finish reading it and begin cleaning out my refrigerator tonight and being a new life tomorrow.
I have tried to lose weight before, but for other people...this time I am doing it for myself. I cannot fully love and care for someone else until I finally love me and get my self esteem back. It is amazing how a few pounds can bring people so far down.
So this was my introduction and I am happy to be here and look forward to hearing from many, many amazing people.
