Default Husband and wife losing together!

Hello everyone! My name is Julie and my wonderful husbands name is Tommy. We have a 14mo daughter. Both of our weigh has gotten out of control and we want to set a healthly example for our daughter. The adkins diet has been in my family for a while. My father is a diabetic and because of counting carbs he has been able to go off some of his meds (praise God)

Tommy started adkins 1/3 and after seeing his success in just a few days I followed him on 1/6 This morning Tommy is down 15.6 and I am down 12.2 and we see no end in sight!

Thank you for letting me share our story and I look forward asking questions and getting to know some of you!

Julie

Welcome! This is great that you and hubby are starting to eat healthy while your child is young. If you never start her on the 'whites' and junk food, she will learn to eat healthy right from the start. Both of you are doing super! Come back often!

Sunny!
