First Entry

Well on New Years I decided to start a weight loss journey. . . .yet again.

I have been successful in the past but as soon as I stop I gain it back, but of course I also had 2 babies in between my success and now, as well as a miscarriage. I guess the miscarriage was more devistating to me than I thought because since then I gain the most weight ever and became my heaviest EVER!

I think it has been the combination of the loss as well as the loss of my body since then. Not only did I induldge in emotional eating I also lost my health reproductive body/health.

We do want at least one to three more children in the future but my cycles and temps and thyroid are all over the place. I have to wait a GOOD three months for the meds to work properly so I figured why not help nature along more by losing this weight and getting healthier.

Since January 1st I have lost nearly 18 pounds so far. All thanks to Atkins. I officially started on Monday the 5th but had dropped some weight since the 1st. All of the good holiday baking and foods really did me in which is why I knew I couldn't start over the holidays.

So I started this blog to help motivate me and to HOPEFULLY show my progress. I don't have a "Before" picture yet of my heaviest but I'll probably get one of me as I am "now" soon. I think it helped me before because I could physically see the difference in the pictures the last time.

Any ways that's about it.
