My sister, an on and off dieter throughout her life, asked me to go on Atkins with her since we live together and it would be easier for her to stick with it if I joined her...so I did reluctantly. I've never dieted in my life, nor have I suffered from low self-esteem or other weight-related confidence issues...despite my size. I joined her, nearly quit a few days into it due to incredible headaches- this forum helped me to stick to plan even through those terribly difficult first few days...
And I'm so glad I did- the difference b/w how I felt before and after Atkins WOE is amazing. I have lots more energy, feel healthier and even through spring (my worst when it comes to allergies), I've had nary a symptom. I love it! My skin looks so much healthier now that I drink lots of water, rather than soda. I feel like a completely different (shrinking!) woman!
