DeeDee3207's Journal, 17 August 2013

This day has been a long time coming, I guess. I followed the Atkins diet 12 or so years ago. I felt better, healthier, sexier. I then moved due to my husband's job and in doing so, had to leave friends, a great job, and my daughter and grandson. I have gained and lost weight only to gain again since moving from New Mexico in November 2004. I haven't really followed any real structured plan. Since moving to Kentucky, I have gotten a divorce, had to file for bankruptcy, and am working at the third different job.

I started walking in my neighborhood last week. Walked for 30 minutes, three times. I am proud of that. Little things leading up to today.

I was searching for the carb count for green tomatoes today when I came across this web-site. After looking around for awhile, I thought I would join and hopefully find support from others who can understand that this is a life-altering journey.

Same thing here DeeDee3207. I lost a ton about 12 years ago and little by little I came up with excuses to go off plan and here I am weighing more than I started. I am taking up the challenge again and realizing that this is it. I have to do this for the rest of my life or I am risking my life. I kept remembering how much energy I had when I was doing it in the past and now I'm starting to feel like that again. Good luck!
