Hi!
This is my story and how I started....... Five years ago I had an amazing body, curvy in all the right areas!
I was happy and healthy and I felt good. When I had my My second child I had gained 30 pounds. On my third child I gained another 25 pounds and I knew I was doomed! I have tried everything I could think of low-calorie diets, Weight watchers, Six week body makeover, and was seriously working out and nothing was working for me even with the cardio and weight lifting. I Was very frustrated as you can imagine!!!! I still was not feeling good I was tired and felt yucky all the time and not to mention horrible headaches that would never go away!
Six months ago, a coworker of mine was overweight as well and I started to watch her in the past couple of months. She Was looking amazing and I didn't know what her secret was. A month ago I had asked her what she was doing to look so good. She had informed me that she was doing the Atkins diet along with gluten-free and that she lost 60 pounds in 6 months time without seriously working out. I was so shocked. And excited all at the same time!!!!! She had let me borrow her Atkins books and I went home that night and started reading like crazy!!! I couldn't believe what I was reading actually could work! Right away I had started the diet, I started on November 20, 2012. My starting weight was 185 pounds. Three weeks Later I lost 10 pounds of course I gained back 3lbs of it back because of the holidays. I am very determined to loose this weight. My husband wants to take me to Guatemala to meet his family and I do not want to go looking this big. My current starting weight is 178 pounds The goal is to be at 115 pounds By June 1st 2013. I only have 62 pounds to lose and that isn't that bad when you really think about it And I know that I can do it!!!!!!
Starting January 1 I will be back on track with the Atkins diet along with my Turbo Jam and Brazilian Butt workout.
This diet works, it is hard Especially when you can smell the wonderful carbs that everbody is eating around you. But I know for a fact that after being on the diet for a month I felt so much better I wasn't tired and had energy and no more headaches which I can live without!!!!
I wish the best luck for everyone who is trying to loose weight for 2013!!! Don't give up, there are going to be days when your going to wish that u can stop and eat whatever you want but think about the future and the happiness weight loss would bring you. Once you have met your goal you can look back and smile and know that you have achieved something amazing! It was hard work but you did it and that you know that you will be able to do anything that is difficult in your life because you are a WINNER!!!!!!!!!
