Hi all out there. My name is Michelle and I am a 33 year old mother of 2 and have a wonderful "Thin" husband who has the metabolism of a freight train. We are both 6'2" and he is perfect at 210 lbs. Me, on the other hand am the wife who loves to cook great food for my family. Grew up on a farm in the country and that's just what a woman did was feed her family GOOD! Problem- gained 100 lbs with 1st child and 27 more with our 2nd! Have NO willpower whatsoever and love to bake, eat and enjoy!! As of today, my sister and I are starting Kimkins togeather. I was doing the six week body makeover and "IT WORKED" I lost 10.6 lbs in about a week and a half but it was hard because I felt like I had no variety, the same thing everyday every meal. I am glad to have some kind of support, my husband tries but the "Just start jogging" thing is a bit misunderstood by someone who doesn't have a weight problem. This morning as I fixed my family wonderful cheese and chicken southwestern omlettes, I cracked me open 3 eggs, seperated them and added the yolks to my childrens and I cooked me up 3 egg whites and two fried chicken tenderloins (from Albertson's meat dept. - they have a wonderful meat and fish dept.) seasoned with a bit of Johnny's and had my coffee, black today (this is hard, I am a creamer finatic - LOVE the new Bluberry Cream creamer:-() But, I am bound and determined to live longer for my babies and wonderful husband! I love the recipes I have found searching around the site and am incorp. a bit of the low carb Atkin's into my meal planning and a bit of my six week body makeover suggestions. I think the way to be successful is following all of the rules and guidelines to learn to change our eatting habits not just try only one. We will see! I am definetly one that needs the support by others who know what I am talking about. Will see ya'll Monday with new weight in!! Success to all for now.
Michelle
