Hello,
My name is Abby and I am 21 years old. I started Atkins yesterday! It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be since I am soooo addicted to carbs! I was an athlete in high school and had no problem staying thin, but my freshman year of college I started gaining and I am now a Junior and haven't stopped.
One of my best friends is getting married in a three weeks so I decided that I do not want to be fat in her wedding pictures that everyone is going to see for a looong time (hopefully!).
I have tried WW, but didn't really like it cause it took forever to lose any weight. I do enjoy exercise it is just a mattter of making time to do it!
I have a boyfriend of almost 5 years. He loves my body (so he claims) lol...but I am not doing this for him I am doing this for me!
We have one fur baby named cleopatra. She is a 3 year old black cat.
I have a few questions about induction
1. Is it ok to eat those atkins advantage bars? I know the book says stick to the foods listed, but was the book written before they had all these low carb options?
2. Is salt ok to eat?
3. Are you supposed to eat no sugar at all? The lunch meat i bought has a little bit of sugar in it?
I think that's all for now!
And here are my stats..
5'8"
Start Weight: 230
