Hi, new here

Hello everyone. I'm new to your board, and wanted to introduce myself.

I'm Kerri. I work full time outside of the home, my family is my DH & DD, and I'd like to lose 110 lbs.

My weight has been up and down in the past. 1998 was the last time I was at my target weight, and it has gone up from there. The last time I lost weight, I did calorie counting (ate a lot of rabbit food--LOL), and went to the gym regularly. It worked then, but took a lot of effort. I just haven't been motivated to do that again, nor have I had the time to excercise right since the birth of my DD.

This time around, I am trying the Atkins diet. I just started 6 days ago, on the recommendation of a co-worker. I pretty excited about it, as I've lost 4 lbs already.

I'm glad I've found this board, because having this much weight to lose is very frustrating. I can't believe that I let it go on for this long.

Well, I'm sure I'll be checking in here regularly!
