Welcome to the Second Time Around Club

[Perry]

Based on the positive response to the Second Time Around thread we've decided to open up a new forum for our members starting over on their Atkins journey.

Enjoy!

This is the place for me!

And my first post!

I am back after losing 150 lbs. to th epoint where i had to have a panniculectomy and then blowing it (about 100 lbs of it) over depression when I was told I have to have my knees replaced.

But I am on day 11 of induction and I feel great again, drinking water and kicking the caffeine/diet pop routine.'

YAY

Party party!

Re: Welcome to the Second Time Around Club

So I see I am not the only one who has tried and quit atkins lol. Well after trying diet after diet and no luck again I have to at least give atkins one more try. My first try at atkins I lost 10lbs in first two weeks of induction and that was that..no more.....and of course when I stopped it came piling back on. Tried other diets and minimal results. So here I am 50 yrs old and 5ft tall at 134 lbs. It may not seem much to some but being so short it might as well be a lot more. It is independence day so I may as well become independent lol. This time around however I am going to count total calorie intake as well, just seems that I need to do something different this time......Wish me luck and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated....

Re: Welcome to the Second Time Around Club

Hi!

I'm restarting tomorrow since I've not been OP the past week due to this heat... but instead I am buckling down and WILL stick to induction as of tomorrow. Too bad they don't sell sugar free ice cream here in Sweden. I guess on Monday I'll get an ice cream maker and do a recipe by Dana Carpenter's 500 LC recipe book... or else I'll get tempted again!! I can't stand not having something like that during a sweltering summer.

Anyway, tomorrow is a new day and I am READY as I don't like what I am looking at in the mirror. Here is a current picture of myself with my son, taken today.

Welcome to the STAC room Heather!

Its nice to add another person to the fun and support here!

(And remember a clean induction does not allow for ice cream.)

Terry -

I meant to get the ice cream maker for later use Induction is only 2 weeks long, altho I usually do it longer...but modify it slightly.
