I to hate to cook it all up BUT I want this more than anything! So I had to keep telling myself I can do it! I said b4 that I started my Atkins diet weighing 216 on Aug. 7th and today weighed in at 190!!! My goal for the end of this month is 189 (my delivery weight with my first baby) then to keep bringing it down! I never thought I would be able to do this diet, being that I live and breath carbs.. lol I dont even think I will go back to eating NEARLY as much carbs as I did b4.. Everyone that is trying to loose weight.. You can do it and be strong The outcome will be great!!
your weight loss goals are exactly the same as mine!! and i am new to Atkins, I have ordered the books and have been on it for 2 days now so far i feel ok,, but it is not as much of a shock to my system as it would be to others, because i am a type 2 diabetic so im used to eating lower carbs and more protein... but i to need to loose 50 pounds fairly quickly.. can it really be done in 3 to 4 months with Atkins?

I plan on working the administrative side of Assisting. Hoping to have my TR in the spring or summer, my weight has gone up unfortunately, I have a freezer full of meat just no ambition to cook it up...LOL Pizza is my friend it is fast and I can just go home and eat with no concerns for cooking. So, my new promise to myself is get back to Atkins....I can get to my goal weight of 190 in 3-4 months...I am 240 currently. Just got a membership to the YMCA...gonna try to fit in working out...cannot wait to hold my baby in my arms someday soon.

I went today and had a vaginal Ultrasound done.. sry if it is TMI,... but the doctor who did this said that Everything Looked Great! My Ovaries and Uterus look perfect!! .. the only thing holding me back is my weight ... so with all that being said i am now going to try the Atkins Diet that i have been herein so much about!..

Actually with the Atkins diet your initial carb intake should be right about 20 carbs per day. Most of those carbs should come from veggies. As you progress up the "atkins" ladder you then start adding more carbs in until you find your limit where you don't lose weight anymore. If you are trying to maintain your weight that is where you would stay. If you have more weight to lose you would lower your carb intake a little bit so that you start losing again.
You don't want to go below 20 grams of carbs a day. Lower isn't better. Your body needs carbs to survive. Just make sure you are eating the correct carbs. ( veggies, cheese, ranch dressing, mayo ) You don't want to get any carbs from sugar or white flour.
I started the Atkins diet on Aug 7th! It was a really hard diet to start b/c I LOVE carbs. I love bread, rice, pasta ALL OF IT! I spoke with my PCP and he said this diet will give me the most weight lose the FASTEST! He so far has been correct. I started at 216 on Aug.7th and now as of this morning I currently weigh 192!!! (YIPPE)That's 24 pounds in a little under 6 weeks. I was a HUGE coke drinker. I only drink water, or lipton has this awesome diet green tea citrus!! Green tea helps you lose weight and this stuff taste good. So I drink water or that all day long. I am also going to the gym 5 days a week before my husband goes to work, for an 1 1/2 hour The BIGGEST thing to know about the ATKINS diet is you can ONLY have 24 carbs in the whole day.. None is better but max is 24. Read everthing before it goes in your mouth Good luck and YOU CAN DO IT!!! I keep telling myself the gift I will receive in the end IS SOOO WORTH IT

It's been a while since I updated, I got a little discouraged when I realized my scale was broken. It had me loosing about 2 pounds a day and I wasn't doing anything more than my normal routine. After the third time I realized it and bought another one. At that time it had me at 186 but the new one put me at 198. I'm still proud of me... My current stats are below:
Oh, and I've scheduled for September 28, 2009, instead of December 2009
