Welcome to ADBB Tiffany, nice to have you with us. You stay on this plan and your weight problem will be a thing of the past. You will have so much energy to exert while playing with your son. I understand what you are saying about being an outsider, I went thru times when I didn't want to go out but Thank God I did. You will be a healthy vibrant Mom in no time. tiffany be sure to read the book and follow it. Drink your water and exercise some too. Doing those three things will have you slim and trim in no time. ttyl, brady

Welcome Ineed2Change! I had type-2 diabetes when I began Atkins. It vanished in 48 days after doing Atkins.This woe (way of eating) contines to keep in check. I also used the glysemic index to choose foods lower on the glycemic load. To learn more about it go to www.glycemicindex.com Again, welcome, I look forward to hearing about your Atkins journey.
