My intro! previously had a bad title!
I started Atkins almost 5 days ago. It's been VERY hard and I am still dragging..havent felt the energy surge I read about yet. My husband is VERY critical and not super supportive and my mom keeps telling me this is bad for my heart....
I am 28 years old and I have 2 beautiful children, a 3.5 year old son and almost 2 year old daughter. I am a stay at home mom.
I have been heavy my whole life...it was originally because I had an uncontrolled thyroid but beyond age 12 I guess it has been more of a food addiction issue....food for comfort, cant go to bed w/o SUGAR! Sugar first thing in the morning was a must.
I feel sad becuase I miss my sugar SO terribly! I crave Coke like crazy and my husband wanted to get a pizza for dinner... oY!
I am not hugely fond of meat but am learning to make things I like so I dont have to eat so many eggs.... lol
ANYWAY... I have 140 pounds to lose and REALLY need support so I am incredibly greatful to have found this board!
Today is day 5 officially and I am feeling a lot better...still sweaty but it is 90 out! lol I am going to take my kids out to the pool..havent felt well enough to do that in a month! Also lost an inch from waist already..very cool! looking forward to dropping LOTS of weight!
