    This is the place for me too!

    Hey guys, I have started and stopped many times on this WOL. I re-started "for good" on 1/14/05. I have had several mess ups since then and am on the 8th day of Induction again. I have lost 25 lbs since January. Before these 8 days I had 2 week cheat and felt terrible and yucky and miserable and tired, etc, etc. So here I am AGAIN, 8 days in and feeling great. In fact, I am down to 250.5 (my lowest in probably the past 2 years).

    I love how easy it is to lose weight on this WOE.

    I really belong in the 2nd time around club and I am sticking with it.

    OH, you know what.....someone was asking me what caused my last cheat which then turned into 2 weeks, and I had a bunch of reasons and I just realized another one.

    I don't have access to the internet and these boards on the weekends! YIKES, if I had access on the weekend, maybe I would be less inclined to cheat, or at least let you guys talk the cheat out of my hands...

    OMYGOD! No internet access on weekends........that's a killer given that that is when our routine is broken and temptation arises in the worst way.

    Is there anything you can do about it? Are there internet cafes near you? A library? A friend?

    We'll put our heads together and come up with some ideas.

    In the meantime, WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME! This is THE BEST forum, so keep checking in (when you are able to get online) and join us on our adventure!

      This is absolutely great support for those of us with issues. LOL I don't know if I could handle being without internet for a whole weekend. I would be pulling out my hair.

        Welcome to STAC!

        That is one of the things I constantly remind myself about and downright chant when I think of going back to my old ways or cheating.............. How yucky, miserable and tired I feel when I get that stuff back into my system.

        I hope there is someplace like Finelly listed hat you can go to for some computer time on the weekends. There is always someone here to give you a hand and cheer you on.

          Welcome to STAC and great job on your loss so far!!! I know what you mean about the mess ups. I have been committed to following this woe since March for my second time around, but I have had several mess ups, as well. As long as you keep trying, you will succeed. Just think, if you would have given up completely, you would not have lost those 25 pounds. That is what I always remind myself.

          Keep up your hard work and check in with us often!!!

            Thanks for the warm welcome to this board everyone. We don't have a home phone b/c me and my roommate both use our cell phones for everything, so I don't want to have to pay for a phone line and internet. I'm trying to look into cable or something else (because I have a computer at home) but its just ANOTHER expense you know!

            Yes, this is a good place to come back to (I truly don't know how other people don't cheat! I'm in awe of those people)

            Ok, everyone have a wonderful cheat-free day : )

              we don't have a home phone, either, as we all have cell phones here. We do have cable and it was like $10 more to add it for the computer, as they were offering a special package deal. I'm in North County San Diego, so it's Cox - dunno what you have there!

                Oh yeah, my roommate didn't want to pay for cable so we don't have that either....I'm getting a new roomate at the end of the month though, maybe she would want cable? $10 more would be good, I think there may be a deal like that here too....I'm in Huntington
