Good morning 50+ !

[Tamster158]

Good morning! I've been trying to start induction several times this past month or so, and have done really well, but then I just stop for no real reason. Crazy huh?

I love the way I feel when eating this way, and over the weekend FINALLY realized that when I'm not eating this way, I feel so sluggish and heavy after eating a carb-filled meal. Well, I didn't FINALLY realize, but I guess it finally hit me that I didn't have to feel that way.

So, I'm on day 3, and am so happy!

I'm also happy to be a part of this 50+ group -- I'm 52.

Have a great day everybody!

It's only "crazy" if you don't figure out why.

All the restarting is just messing up your metabolism ... and making it more difficult for you when you finally do commit.

Hey Tamster,

I sent you a Private message titled "Norco" a few weeks ago. Did you ever get it?

Stick to the eating plan and you can feel Great EVERYDAY!

I have been eating this way now for 6 months and I have never felt this good in years!

Re: Good morning 50+ !

I did get the message -- I'm so sorry that I didn't respond! Got busy and totally forgot about it. Thank you for sending it -- we are actually getting ready to move out of Norco, but just up the freeway one off-ramp. Just moving to a less expensive area.

And, thank you for your nice reply to this post. That's the Atkins style and support I remember!

I finished breakfast a little while ago and feel sooooo good!

Have a great day!

Welcome! I'm 54 and been a member of ADBB a long time. I've have managed to keep 40 lbs off over the years. Technically I really need to lose another 20 lbs but I am comfortable at the weight that I am. I at least look good with clothes on! I don't post very often on here because I'm too thin skinned for a bulletin board but I'm here everyday. Good luck on your journey!

Hi Tamster, LOL, I'm a Calif native (southern) but left many years ago and have never heard of Norco, CA.

Glad your back on track. It's like exercise with me, I just couldn't get motivated to do it, I'd start and then stop and then start again, but finally I MADE IT MINE, if you know what I mean. Sometimes we just take a few tries to get going and the we never look back.

Hi JEC, I'm glad your still here, I was actually wondering what had happened to you. Now I know your with us in virtual land.

Hi Desert-
Do you know where Corona is? Norco is north of Corona, North on 15.
What city did you live in - in CA.? I have to learn as much as I can about CA, I will be moving there within 2-4 months hopefully. I will be relying on all of you to help me out.

Hey Lynne . . .yeah I'm here everyday since I joined. Only time I may not be in the shawdows is when I'm on vacation. Hope you're doing well.

Re: Good morning 50+ !

Hi JEC -- good for you!!! That's funny about being too thin skinned. I think I am too! lol...

Hi Desert! You have been around this ol'd board for a long time! It's good to see you here! I noticed that Outback Jess hasn't been here for a while. Do you know if she's doing ok?

I feel so great today -- getting ready to go make breakfast -- a little late -- I slept in a little today

Not sarcastic at all ... just years of experience reading posts and helping people.

If you don't figure out why you keep stopping, you're doomed to repeat the cycle.

The choice is yours!

Good luck with your journey.

Hi Ladies,

I do know where Corona is. I was born in Hollywood, raised in San Fernando Valley, Married in San Francisico, had my kids in San Jose and then hubby joined the Army and we made the world our home. I just spend the summer near Palm Springs and it was HOT, hot, hot.

I joined this board when it was just brand new and I think I've hung around the longest. If you want good advise on Atkins, 2bigfourmysize is my personal Atkins guru. She is awesome. If you want advise on food Megs (Not2Late) is the one to go to. All the Moderators are super and you can believe anything they tell you.

Outback Jess got skinny and left us I think, although I do see her on every so often and I still think she is a MOD. Go to her profile and leave her a note, I know she sees them when she comes on. She is another personal heroin of mine.
