Starting tomorrow.

So, I got my high blood pressure diagnosis last Friday and will more than likely find out that I have diabetes either tomorrow or Tuesday. I haven't been feeling well the last couple of months so I went in and got my check-up. Obviously I need to lose quite a bit of weight and my Doc suggested a closely supervised Atkins approach.
I joined this site a while ago, but I guess I wasn't all too interested in doing what I needed to do. I'm bummed I let my weight get this far out of control, but with these new diagnosis', it's time to get it together.
Wish me luck as I start tomorrow.

So did you get off to a good start? I sure hope so. You can do it!!!

Yea. It was good. Got a little woozy in the car. Not sure what that was about, but I found something to eat and that made it better. Had to force myself to drink all that water, so that was probably the toughest part.

Good job! I agree on the water. I still struggle with it and I have been doing this for months.
Sometimes as the body adjusts to eating less carbs and sugar you may have some "flue symptons" these will pass once you get into ketosis (after a few days) and you will feel great.
