Can't be a fat bride! ~I'm a newbie~

[sariari33]

Hey everyone. I am Sarah. I just turned 26 last week. I bought some DVD's that had a similar diet in it, but I thought I would try Atkins. I tried it once a few years back, but had no support from the ex, so here I am with all the support I could ever ask fro with my new fiance! we are egtting married in 8 weeks!!! I wanna lose some weight before then, but know I won't be at my goal yet.

I am a mommy to Dean, he is 7 months and just a silly baby boy! He makes everyday so much brighter and I wanna always have him be proud of me.

I look forward to meeting and getting and giving support through my journey!

Welcome Sarah! Glad to have you join us here at ADBB. You'll find it a terrific place for support and inspiration.

I just know you'll make a lovely bride, with or without Atkins...but with Atkins you'll find you feel better about yourself and healthier too!

Happy losing!
