Have just returned from a family holiday and vowed to loose some excess lbs. My friend has lost 3 stone on Atkins since July and so have managed to stick to Atkins for nearly a month now. I am 32 and a single mum and since turning 30 have found it very hard to loose any weight, so I am hoping that I can shed 10lbs by Christmas (7lbs to go) and look and feel fab and maybe find myself a man as well.... who knows!!
