Hi everyone,
I am new to Atkins, just started like 1 day ago. I am 26 years old and i weigh a whopping 240lbs!!. My husband and i got married about 3 years ago and we moved like 4 years ago and ever since then i have just been gaining and gaining. When we meet i wasnt the skinniest person weighing probably like 150lbs. recently i came down with a horrible case of bronchitis and asthma. I was having trouble sleeping, i felt as if i was being suffocated everytime i laid on my back because of all this fat! so a coworker had been talking about doing atkins and that she had lost like 23 pounds in like a month so i decided to look into what the Atkins Diet really was. I am just now starting to really think about what i am putting into my body. i was in such a habit of eating whole bags of doritos(family size) and drinking whole 2 liters to myself and never even thinking about what this was doing to my body. I have diabeties in my family so i have also been getting worried about developing that. I am so glad i found this site and i am going to be using this to help me because i know i have issues with food and the choices ive made so being able to come on here and read all these success stories has already made me so excited about taking control of my body. :thup:
