I'm 35 and have been overweight since the birth of my first son 8 years ago. I got depressed and medicated myself with food. Ugh. I've been doing Atkins since Sept 9th and I've lost 50 pounds so far. I've got a long way to go but I know I can do it. My attitude has changed about food and instead of living to eat, I'm eating to live. I'm very conscious of every morsel I put in my mouth. I love the recipes here and I've tried quite a few.
A little more about me... I'm a stay-at-home mom to two precious boys ages 8 and 5. I'm happily married for 15 years now to the most amazing supportive man on the planet. When we first met I was a size 6. Now...I have to shop in the plus size section. Ugh...Although I'm already down four whole jean size which is pretty great! Atkins is really working for me!
I'm a semi-professional photographer and love the outdoors. You can check out my photos on Flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/wdsmiley I've been selling some of my photos at art festivals. Its been fun.
Looking forward to losing more weight and getting healthy. Thanks for all the support!!!! =)
