Where to start... :)
Hello.
I guess I will introduce myself : )
I have been overweight since I was 13... can anyone say puberty? :P Arg those darn hormones, all over the place! I was a slim child before that. But knowledge then wasn't as it is today, and what it will be tommorrow! So I cannot blame my parents for it... And I won't. As a young adult I plan to take my health into my own hands.
I have actually read Gary Taubes' book (it's my bible!)because I like to read about health and nutrition and his book really was a shocker. I was, like many, told to count calories and eat a variety of foods... even had a trainer and a nutritionnist argue with me after reading his book! I remember hearing about Atkins years ago without thinking much of it. Then that Dr Atkins had passed away, with some rumours that it was his diet...anyways! (May he R.I.P.)
Today, I am INFORMED!! Everything makes sense and I have fallen into Atkins because I know what it does and how it works. I am very surprised how many people can follow 'diets' blindly and hope for the best. Even on Atkins, I hope people know what good it can do!
Enough ranting
It is nice to meet you!
