I started Atkins April 16, 2018.

I am divorced, 59 years old and a veteran.
Three children (hard to believe my oldest will be 36 in August!), two boys and the youngest is a girl.

Been dieting since I reached puberty, many moons ago. I wanted to join the Army when I was 29 years old, but I was over the weight limit. My mother in law and I started Atkins together.

It was the first time I tried low carb, and it was the most effective diet for me up until then.

I understand I might not have the same amazing results as I did at 29, but, I already feel better after six days of less than twenty carbs at 59.

I hope to find support and recipes here. Already found a recipe for green beans that looks marvelous!

Thank you for reading.
