Hi, I'm new to this site but not new to obesity I'm 38 yrs old, married to the best man on the planet (in my eyes) and have 2 wonderful teenagers
I have been over-weight most of my life, but it really hit hard after I had kids. I started Atkins 4 yrs ago and lost 80lbs in the first 7 months....then it stopped. I have been yo-yo'ing 30lbs for the last 2 yrs. A good friend of mine talked me into trying low-fat (The Susan Powters plan) We started aug 8th and as of last Monday(8-22) I'm down 3lbs.! It's hard switching from LC to LF, I find myself really wanting a cheeseburger But on the otherhand this is alot easier to follow. I have slipped twice but its not like on LC when it sets you back a month! and I dont have an aweful headache the next day

I'm looking forward to meeting some new friends here and sharing our success!

Hi Katty67! I should be biking but it's windy out so I'm blathering away time here surfing the forums instead
Welcome! We had a blast taking TMundays diet apart and helping her learn to eat healthier in a thread called 'undereaters anonymous'. If you're game, why not post your typical day ... eating ... exercising .... We'll have a stab at you too!
Although ....3 lbs is wonderful. You must know what you're doing right already. Congratulations on your good start.
