Hi, my name is Bebet. I've only found this site today which is good because I've become stuck in my diet goals here. Last July I weighed 255 pds. I started working out in the fall briefly and started a new medication for treatment of my bipolar disorder and lost about 20 pds. On March 3rd this year I began the Atkins diet in earnest and began working out again. I walk at least 30 minutes a day (a good cardio workout) and do weight circut training 3 times a week at the Y. I started at 235 and have now weighed 209 for almost 2 weeks. Everyone tells me I've lost alot of weight. My clothes are definately too big, I can see physical changes- I have muscle where I've had flab. I'm happy with that but I need to lose the weight. So I come to this board with questions. I try to eat no more than 20 carbs a day and have been in ketosis since the first week. I feel good, just want to see continued weight loss. Well that's me.

Maybe starting a journal here might help???- for one thing you can list your foods and menu's there for others to see and comment on.. This I find MOST helpful! sometimes others can catch something maybe you have missed, that you will find helpful in reaching your goal :thup:
