Hello all,
So happy to see you all still chating out there!
I have been on the mainland for 3 weeks visiting my sister in Colorado and various relatives, so my life has been a bit hectic.
Well, I completely went off while I was visiting and ate every thing in sight! So much fun. I even complained when my sisters kids only went to 4 houses for treats on halloween. I didnt even care if it was 20deg. out there, there was chocolate to be had!!
Ok, let me give you the lo-down on myself and my little family:
33 y/o
Married 8 years
3 kids 2 boys & 1 girl (Gabriel 5, Adrian 3 and my sweet little flower Sophia 10 mo)
Previously lost 20lbs on atk and then I unexpectedly "fell" pregnant (I just love that expression, thanks Aussie jo!)
My Sophia is ALSO a very lean and long baby!! She was 7lbs 4 oz at birth and now She is approx 16.5lbs at 10mo and eats tons of freshly ground baby food that we fatten up with olive oil. She nurses approx. 3 to 5x a day and is very active. She is this wt with me eating freely.
I am not worried as she was continuing to grow in her own nicely rounded curve. One of my other children, Adrian was also the same long and lean and he still is. Not worried, just wish I had the same metabolism.
I have started eating at maint. levels again so I can fit into some of my cloths for upcomming christmas parties. After I lost that 20 lbs, I literally got rid of all my pre atkins cloths! I went crazy rewarding myself with "skinny cloths" and now I am stuck with size 6 cloths!!!!!!
I refuse to buy larger than a 10 and I am squeezing my motherly curves into two pairs of pants. By the way I am sick of these pants!
My hubby is also going on atk, but he is doing the full on induction. Not so sure this is a good idea, we both tend to get a bit crabby without sugar.
Oops just realized ive been rambling...
Please excuse the mispelled words, its not a strong point Im lost with out spell check!
Take care
