I am 37 years old and although Nov. 8, 2010 is my first day on this site, it is not my first day on this diet. I started the Atkins program in Feb. 2010 and have lost 30 lbs. so far. If I ever have a bad day, it seems to last three weeks. I just celebrated my birthday, hence a three weeks binge per say on bad carbs. Today is the beginning of me trying to break that cycle. I want to be able to have a bad day once and leave it at that. I have a minimum of 67 pounds I want to lose so I am hoping this site can help keep me motivated!!
