Talking Hi! New here :)

Hi, I'm new here. My name is Christy. I'm 29 from California. I have 4 kids.. ages 12,11,7,5. I did atkins about 2 years ago and took off quite a bit of weight, about 80lbs in 5 months. But I sorta fell off the wagon and gained it all back . This time I'm excercising too, so hopefully I will have faster results and stay with it!

Welcome Christy! Good luck with this, you can totally do it!

Exercising will really help you feel better but don't be discouraged if the weight doesn't come flying off faster than 80lbs in 5 months! Stick with it and you will reach your goal in no time!

Yes, don't be discouraged if it doesn't come off as quickly this time! But you are doing the right thing and stick with it becuase you know it works!

Hey Shaman! I am in Cali too! I just wasn't born here, though.

Christy, that actually does help. I have buddied up with another girl and we have set some similar goals such as not weighing until the end of our exercise challenge and doing a clean, cheat free induction. Good luck!
