    Great forum...how'd y'all know I needed you?!?!?

    Hey all...

    Well, I'm back. The good news is, I never got back up to 150, the not so good news is, I'm pretty darn close.

    I went out to work in February, and the company is actually letting me work from home all summer, so I am going to give the Atkins WOL another go. The alternative was just what we all remember, fatigue, fat gain, indigestion. I did South Beach for a bit, but the cravings never really did go away. So, I'm back.

    I got a bunch of fun DVDs for exercise...belly dancing, Darrin's Dance Grooves, Beginners Stretch and a Leslie Sansome yoga DVD.

    Ugh....starting over is a pain....but, I can't think of a better place to do it, or better people to do it with.

      Welcome back Leslie! Seems you have a great plan to start. Working from home should make it slightly easier since you will have fresh foods at your disposal, right?

      Keep us posted on your progress!! Best of luck! :wave

        I hear you about the cravings with South Beach...with SB I had cravings and hunger all the time. Blech. What a horrible way to live. Additionally, I had tried Weight Watchers and was never really satisfied. I found myself doing low-fat atkins without even realizing it...low fat turkey with no fat cream cheese (blech!?#@) and was hungry all the time.

        Honestly, with Atkins, I may have had cravings for a while but I wasn't hungry.

        I'm back on track again, too, so I know what you are going through now second time around!

            Welcome Leslie! I wondered where you ran off to :hug

            I'm in the same boat. Working outside the home is easier for me because I stick to what I bring to eat. At home, there are too many other things tempting me. That's why I always blow it on the weekends :anger

            Hang in there! We are here to help each other :hug
