Exclamation Dump The Plump

I am a 28 year old mother of one 9 year old beautiful little girl. I am married to my highschool sweetheart. I am battling the bulge. I recently was injured at work. I am unable to work due to back problems. I have gone to 5 doctors..so far. I have been to physical therapy. I have had a spinal block. They are talking surgery..yikes! I am on lots of pain killers, muscle relaxers, and of course steroids with anti-inflammatories. The last doctor weighed me. I am 13 pounds from my delivery weight 9 months pregnant 9 year ago. Talk about disgusting. A friend suggest I try Adkins. I am unable to exercise. I used to walk or go to the gym when I was stressed or upset. I am unable to walk without a walker. I started Adkin's today. So far ..so good. Keep in mind this is the end of day 1. My hubby said he was ready to change also. That was a huge relief. No more cooking 2 meals. No more cheating thinking a bite of his won't hurt me. The scale proved otherwise. My in laws called...odd really...they wanted to take us out for supper. Been together 13 years married 10 other than birthdays and holidays we NEVER get together. Tonight being the first..no birthday..no holiday..we have no idea what that was all about. So, we go to an amish buffet. I stayed on Adkin's. Pretty easy for me I cannot walk without a walker so I only made 1 trip My daughter helped. I ate dark green veggies, olives, cheese, bacon, ham, cottage cheese, green beans, etc. My hubby on the other hand CRASHED AND BURNED he cannot resist the temptations of mashed potatoes etc he is a starch lover. He says he is starting tomorrow. I hope he does. All the support I can get helps.

He needs to eat them in moderation and/or try substitutes. Change from white flour to whole wheat products. Try mashed cauliflower instead of potatoes. I like them with a light cream cheese added in.
