Hi everyone.
I would first like to thank Alreadyexcitedgrammy for letting me know about this great site. I have been reading some of the past threads. They all are very encouraging .
I have been an overweight person , most of my life and I always wanted to be at a healthy weight , but I never did anything about it really serious enough to be at a healthy weight. Until May of "02 I had heard about the Atkins Diet , I thought that I would try it. I made a goal for myself and said that I was going to lose 10 pounds in a month. I can be strong and do that , I kept telling myself. 10 pounds sounded alot better than the 100 that I need to get off. So, I did it and I lost 12 pounds in that month. I was so happy and I realized that I was a carboholic, I did lose 35lbs then, I did a big back slide and gained 10bs. back over the Holidays. But since 1/04 I have been very strick with my self except on Valentines Day I ate way to much of the wrong things and I got so sick and I paid for it. I promised myself that I will never to that again.
I also have joined Curves this week. Which is a great program and alot of fun.
I am not alone in this weight battle, my family is eating healthier and working out too.
I wish everyone the best of luck,
Tammy
Wish us luck too.
