I hope to make this a WOE forever as I know I can't go back to the carby life I used to live, that kept me fat and unhappy. I've got 25 pounds to get off my body to fit normally in my old clothes and I'm ready to do what it takes with the Atkins Induction.

Good morning Hallie! Welcome to the board. Good for you for reading the book, that's a very important first step. No time like the present to get rid of your 25 pounds too! Please let us know if you have any questions! Cruise around the board, familiarize yourself with our challenges and forums. There's lots to learn, and many friends to make!

Thank you everyone for all the welcomes! I wish I could be proud in saying I aced two days of Induction, but I screwed up bad. I posted this elsewhere on the Main board, but to make it short, I ate a non-induction friendly food (lowcarb peanutbutter fudge) and had more carbs yesterday and today than I wanted to.

I'm going to eat clean for the rest of the day and have already thrown out the rest of that fudge. I realize that anything sweet, even if I make it for someone else, is somehow going to end up in my mouth if it's in my home.

Time for me to go look at those exercise challenges.

LOL I already responded to your post about making the fudge! You learned a great lesson! Keep up the good work and you'll tell those pounds of fat goodbye in no time at all. Commit to an exercise program that fits your condition and you'll be trim and fit in no time at all. No matter what physical challenges you have, there is something you can do to move your body.

Sunny!

Look for the 20/24 Challenge coming up in the next few weeks. It's a challenge where you commit to a minimum of 20 minutes of exercise in one 24 hour period! Easy peasy!

How many days a week? I need a challenge which lets me have at least one day complete rest per week. Maybe two days a week. My challenge has been to find the fine line between doing too little and too much.

Sunny!
