I had known for a while that I needed to lose weight, but willpower was a huge issue for me. I Like food...there's just no other way to put it.
I had my youngest daughter last May, and my other children are 15, 10, 7, 6, and 5. We often bike ride and rollerblade and suddenly I just had no energy to play with my children like I used to. With my last pregnancy I gained 40 pounds, which put me at a whopping 211 pounds. My last doc appointment was the day I delivered and I couldn't believe it when I stepped on the scale. I told myself I would lose the weight and somehow just never could find the time to work on it.
I was out biking with my children one day and I could barely make it up a neighborhood hill. I started thinking to myself that if I didn't get a grip on my weight, I'd never have the energy to play with my baby girl the way I did with my older children. I started Atkins that night....
