Just a quick intro. I bought Dr. Atkins book for Mother's Day for myself and am getting through it quickly. I'm hoping this is something I can really incorporate into my life. Have been on a dedicated workout/training schedule since Feb. The first time in years and seeing results.

I'm not too sure what to say, but here it goes.

I'm 32, about 80lbs overweight (I think) and ready for a change. My weight gain came with children and unemployment. I am a healthy woman and the working out is really great! I'm at the gym 3-4 times a week and working with a personal trainer 2xs a week. I think my weight isn't going down because I am trading fat weight for muscle weight. That's okay with me but I know my eating habits need help.

I've been through WW and Slimfast with no results and a thinner purse.

Well, how is that for short and sweet. I'm sure I'll have more later.
