Am a 42 year old New Zealander. We have just been through a major disaster with a 7.1 earthquake in our city, followed by a killer 6.3 aftershock which destroyed so much of our city and turned our lives upside down.

If you pray, please pray for our city. It is tough right now living here.

I love the food on Atkins, and I love the energy it gives me. I don't lose weight easily but I am definitely noticing that I am getting slimmer, and I feel much happier about my body. Of course I have a long way to go! LOL


Since I wrote the above I had a surprise baby (only knew the last six weeks!) and had my thyroid removed and they found cancer. What a mixed up year!
