Over the years I put on too much weight which depressed me and I finally said to myself that I had enough! I'm 58 years old and after reading different diets, I picked the Atkins diet.
I threw away and gave away all the high carb foods I had in my kitchen and it's been 3 days that I have stuck with this diet.
Congrats on making a healthy change, and welcome to the forum! I am new here as well, but so far this has been a big inspiration. I am just calorie counting and exercising, but I have reduced my carbs and sugar by a lot!
Thanks for the welcome! There was another reason I chose Atkins which was that about 7 years ago I was on that diet and lost over 30 pounds. Things happened in my life and I went off the diet... I figured that if it worked for me before it will again.
Les, I hope to lose the weight like your friend did and keep it off this time around!
Hi Flower, I love Vermont! Been living here almost 6 years (I moved from another state which was stressful) and I can't picture myself living in any other state. Low carb worked for me before so here we go again!
Hi Cheesecakebrownie (cute name), I also love my protein as that makes me feel full, the hard part was giving up the breads but I'm doing good so far! Bye Bye Carbs!
Hello and committed to losing that weight!
Dee! Glad to have you here! Atkins is a good choice. I hope it works well for you! Good luck!
