greetings! newbie needs advice please
Good morning!
Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself.
I’m Janet age 43 married with 7 children ages 6-21.
I live in northwest Arkansas.
Ive tried every diet and never make it past a few days.
My husband has never been supportive but I am thrilled to say he plans
to do Atkins with me!!!!!!
He was never supportive but especially had nothing but critical comments about
Atkins.
I got the book last week and let him read it first.
The change in him has been astounding! He says Atkins makes perfect sense
and we may never have a Coke again!
The hard part now is realizing I can eat the Atkins way and lose weight.
I’m on Day # 1 Induction….
I would greatly appreciate any help and words of wisdom anyone can share with
me.
For breakfast I had
2 sausage patties
2 eggs cooked in butter
1 piece Atkins Bread toasted with butter
1 cup decaf coffee with 1 tsp whipping cream for creamer.
THIS CAN’T BE DIETING !
Should I try and take the excess fat off before I eat it?
Like use a napkin to absorb it ?
About exercise..it will be difficult because I have Multiple Sclerosis and am in
a wheelchair.
I was looking at the Atkins web site this morning and found a woman who also has
MS and she has lost so much weight and her energy level has gone way up.
( I’m sending a link to her story if anyone would care to see )

For me…….
any at all improvement in energy will be wonderful!
I’m excited about getting out of my size 22/24’s !!!!!!!!!!!
Wish me luck!
Thanks for listening to this desperate newbie

“Pooh!” he whispered.
“Yes, Piglet?”
“Nothing,” said Piglet, taking Pooh’s paw.
“I just wanted to be sure of you.”
