Tagnet

Hi, my name is Nettie. I am 46 and married to an amazing man who supports me and loves me just the way I am. I have 3 awesome sons and feel very blessed. The problem is me....my weight has gone through the roof since my accident in November of 2005. Gradually it just started creeping up on me. In September of 2008 I quit smoking after 20 plus years and guess what??? more weight gain. I could sit here and come up with a million excused as to why I am so heavy but, the bottom line is I was a carboholic who also loves sweets. Over the years I have struggled up and down with my weight. I am an emotional eater who used food as my drug.

Recently my husband was sent out of town for a month for work and it just clicked that it was time for me to take back my body and control of myself. I started Atkins on June 12 and am looking forward to the journey ahead of me. I am hoping to make this a lifestyle change. At the end of the day I am the one that is accountable for me.
