Default new to the low carb lifestyle

Today i am starting induction, i had a baby girl on October 1st of this year and in the month since having her i have lost 30 pounds, great right???, but i gained 60 during my pregnancy not to mention the 20lbs i gained after i got married, not so great anymore right??? so i have a goal of losing 70lbs in 6 months and i know i can do it...all i have to do is kick my NASTY sugar habit and i think atkins is the way to do it...wish me luck!!!

Welcome Goodbyebabyw8 and congrats on your new baby!!
You're right... Atkins is the absolute right way to kick that sugar habit. After only a few days, you'll find your cravings to be really on the wane. Lots of us here are sugar addicts, yet have had great success on this WOE (way of eating).

Good to have you with us. I'll wish you luck on your Atkins journey, but really you don't need luck: All you have to do is follow the programme to a "T" and the lbs will take care of themselves!

Happy losing!
