I actually joined this community over 2 years ago, but never started a diet and here I am just turning 50, overweight and not happy with my looks or my health. The weight is causing knee issues, so I decided to put on my big girl panties and get my stuff together.
My husband and I both started the Atkins diet and plan to stick with it until we both reach our goal weight. This is the second time around for us on this diet. We have tried all others and this one seems to work the best for us. We each lost of 60 pounds 10 years ago and slowly over the years put it back on.
Just looking at the posts and the responses I have read so far, there seems to quite a bit of support out there and that is just what I am looking for!
