Hi Group,
Just wanted to say hello and let everyone know I am here. My name is Mike and I am on my second time at Atkins. The last time was between 2001-2002. I went from 212lbs down to 160lbs. My biggest mistake was like many other people I am afraid. Once I got to where I wanted to be I went back to my old eating (and drinking) habits and the next thing I know I am breaking 190lbs again.
I started again on June 25th and since that time I have dropped from 193lbs to 188lbs. I have been pretty faithful to induction but have slipped once a weekend when I allow myself one glass of red wine. I notice the following morning my ketone levels drop but are still present and the following day they are back to my norm.
I have never posted to this board before. I did use the low-carb Usenet group before but visiting it again now I find it really gone out of control and many posts can be pretty negative.
Anyways, I am a 43yr old male, married, and live in the Downtown Los Angeles area called Mid-Wilshire. I work with computers for a living and it takes a lot of my time. I have a membership at a 24hr Fitness but am currently trying to get myself motivated to go more regularly. Once a week don't cut it!!
