Hi all, I'm here....
I finally am thoroughly disgusted and ready to find the motivation to make this work.
I have had really good success with a low carb diet almost 3 years ago. After my 3rd child was born and the baby weight quit coming off easily, I decided to try Atkins...I ended up losing 36 exta pounds and went from a tight size 16 to a snug 8.. I WAS SOOOOO CLOSE to that eight feeling perfect then I fell.
I have tried off and on to find the motivation since then and have put some, but thank goodness not all of my weight back on. I have gone back up 2 sizes and want to get comfortably back into all those 8's I bought...SURE that I would get in and never actually got to wear.
Fast approching my 40th birthday, seeing the new crows feet and gray hairs popping up everywhere..looking at the flab as I fly past the mirror to hop in the shower, I really need to get a grip on myself. I will be honest and say I'm lazy, and I'm a food addict. I absolutely LOVE TO EAT. LOVE CARBS....In the past I have found the low carbs work better for me b/c I am not limited in the amount of food I can eat..I find it easier to avoid carbs that to avoid calories.
Is there someone out there that is in the same state I am in that wants to be my partner and get started together?
Since it has been a few years since i have done this, I'm not sure which low carb diet is the best to follow.
