| Hello Nicole. Congrads on your recent addition. Stick it out and you will see how, after your 3rd day, easy this diet is. There is no way, if you dedicate yourself, that you will fail and give in to temptations. My only regret is that I hadnt done Atkins a lot earlier. You'll do fine. Remain strong and focused. Good luck. God Bless, Joe |

| Congrats on the new baby!!! So exciting. Just keep in mind Ketosis (which is the process you will go through when doing Atkins) is not healthy for you or the baby if you are breast feeding! If you are breast feeding, I'd hold of on Atkins until you're done nursing... If you aren't nursing then have at it!!! Good luck and stay strong! |

| Welcome to the Boards! Congrats on the new baby! Both of my kids were almost 10 pounds-both c sections. I picked the dates- I dont do labour- it is in my contract! I gained so much weight with my kids - then after they were born, I gained a belly and lots of stretch marks. I missed that in my contract! My story has been one of weight loss and gain-but mainly the gain. I too struggle with depression but this is a time in my life where I am gaining control and am achieving great things in my weight loss journey. I am down 24 pounds since mid Jan. It has not always been an easy process but it is SO worth it. Stay strong and clean and always keep the goal in mind! You can do this!
__________________ Start date - Jan. 15/08, SW-204 Mini goal -185 - March 23/08 Easter morning Milestone - 179 - May 29/08 Milestone - 175 - June 24/08 Milestone - in the 160s and then reassess |
