Day 1

[beonce4u61286]

Hey everyone so this is my first post. I have been a lurker for a few months now. I decided to put myself out there and do this. About myself well I am a college student who is looking to get healthy because if I don't I will continue to be in this depression phase that I am currently in . I do not even know who I am anymore. I am at my all time high 240lbs. I never been this big. The heaviest I've been was 185. Since I graduated from high school I just let myself go. I been through alot and I know I shouldn't make exuses but I just turned 22 years old and its amazing the time that has flew I need to make a change. I did my research on the Atkins weight loss plan is amazing the amount of people who changed their lives is breathe taking. I am ready to do it to. I need the encouragement because I don't have anyone to encourage me. Well on a better note today was day one I did so well so I am so happy. I will continue to post my progress. Thanks

Welcome to the boards! And congratualtions on making a decision that will improve and change your life forever!!!!!


Just a quick hint ....... carrots are not allowed on induction ........ they have lots of sugar/carbs! 1 cup of baby carrots has 9 carbs 6 of them sugar .......

It's all a learning process so hang in there!

THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE ADVICE HEIDI YOU ARE SO RIGHT ABOUT THAT I COMPLETLEY FORGOT I WILL MAKE SURE TO CUT OUT THE INTAKE OF LARGE CARROTS DUE TO THE FACT OF IT BEING HIGH IN SUGAR. DIABETES RUNS IN MY FAMILY WIHICH IS THE MAIN REASON WHY I AM TRYING TO GET HEALTHY AND THE LAST THING I WANT TO DO IS CONTINUE TO EAT FOODS HIGH IN SUGAR. I APPRECIATE THE ENCOURAGEMENT AND I WISH YOU THE SAME SUCCESS BTW YOU HAVE A BEAUTIFUL FAMILY. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

Welcome. I suggest you print out the induction list in the main forum and read the stickies here and there. We follow the 2002 version here. The list is on page 125 in my book. If you don't have the book then please buy the book...it is such a small price to pay for something you are to use to change your life.
