  • Can I come back? I miss you guys!

    Hey all,

    Don't know if you remember me from the beginning of the year, but I was here for a few weeks, then fell off the face of the earth...Not really, but sick babies, and a booming new business was reason enough for me to stray...

    Anyway, I would love to get to know you all again, as I am back and truly comitted this time. My heart wasn't in it last time, but it is now. I'm ready. Not because my mom or friend or brother's ex-wife's, cat's, best-friend thinks I need to slim down, but because I have decided it is time.

    I am ready to join the rest of the world and actually enjoy the ride!

    Hope to re-get to know all of you soon, if you want to know more about me, I posted last week in the intro forum, and have a journal chat running. If you don't count the captain and diet I caved in and had tonight, I am cheat free since Monday...Okay, no alcohol next week!

    My plan is Extended Induction as long as I can stand it, and to really start tasting what I eat. Also, to take long walks with my children and avoid being a heart patient...I wouldn't mind being eye-catching for something other than my weight, either!

    I tried to post a pic from photo bucket, but I couldn't get it sized down enough to put here.

    Anyway, I feel like the prodigal's son crawling back, but this is the most welcoming place I could imagine!

    Good luck this week!
    Kristi

        Hey Kristi, welcome back and glad you've figured out the reasons that will keep you going here. Print that first post out and save your list of reasons. Anytime you're tempted, re-read it!

          Hi TDK,

          I am in the same boat as you are. I tried starting a few weeks ago, but the mind-blowing headache I got scared me off. This is my 5th day of re-try, and I feel great! I, too, feel like a prodigal, but the important thing is: YOUR BACK!!

          I hope to see you on the other threads, and maybe we can help support each other!!

                Welcome back to our ADBB family
                Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
