Hi There! I am doing the Atkins plan and so far have done pretty well with it, loosing 6 3/4th lbs the first week and 2 1/2 inches... I really love it and for the first time in a long time actually have "hope" that maybe I CAN get this weight down some!! I have been reading the posts for a few days and am anxious to make some new friends to share with and help motivate me!
I am a 50 year old SAHM with 2 married children, 8 grandchildren and a 13 year old son still at home. I live in Oklahoma, in the country on 2 1/2 acres. I enjoy scrapbooking, sewing, quilting, crafts of all kinds, reading, writing, and of course, my computer, which is the link to the outside world!
Look forward to getting to know you all!
