Starting Atkins today-sigh
It’s two days after Thanksgiving and I’m going on a diet.
Husband joined a health club. I’ve been there, done that. Not doing it again. Besides, I like my new Richard Simmons DVDs and the health club is conveniently on his way to and from work. Living out in the boonies like we do, nothing is conveniently in driving distance from my home-office (not that I’m complaining. I love where I live.)
So I’m fluffier than my hubby. I need to drop almost twice the weight he needs to lose. And everyone knows that guys lose faster, right? No, it’s not a competition. He doesn’t even know I’m going back on the Atkin’s diet (and probably won’t notice unless I tell him.) But he’s insufferable about weight and when he loses his desired poundage, he’ll be even worse. Plus, I really need to get rid of some serious dead weight. You know us writers. Are lifestyles can be pretty darned sedentary.
So, I signed up on a nice, long-established Atkins forum for some online support. My login name is ConnieC so you can’t miss me if you want to join me there. I’ve done the Atkins thing before–it’s the only plan that seems to work for me–but I’ve never done the support group thing. As a work from home writer, I’m really getting into online communication, though, so I’m thinking it can’t hurt.
Wish me luck!
