Hello All

Hello Second Time Arounders:

I would l ike to myself. Like most of you this is my second time on Atkins. I began in May 2003 and was very successful in reaching my goal. However, in Jan. 2004 I became pregnant and since all the research screams not to do a low carb diet while pregnant I took the opportunity to eat what I wanted. And as a result I gained 50lbs, but lost about 30 (nursing, etc.) So, here I am again trying to drop 25-30lbs by my birthday (December).

I am glad to be here and I hope that I can help and be helped.

I will try to post and read atleast weekly. I have a 10month old daughter and sometimes I just dont have the time or energy to get online.

So that is my story.

Ahsiek~

Re: Hello All

welcome ahsiek...boy does your story sound familiar. i have a 6 month old daughter and trying to lose baby weight plus a few extra i put on after the first go around w/atkins. i wanting to lose around the same amount. i'm hoping it goes as easy this time around. this is my second week and i've lost somewhere in the neighborhood of 3-5 lbs. i bought a new scale to try and get an accurate number...if i go by my doctor's scale today, i've lost 5. i'm hoping it's actually a little more(it's that time of the month) once my bloat goes away. next week should be an exciting week to see how much i've lost. welcome again and congrats on your new baby!

Welcome back! Well, once ketosis sets in, you'll have more energy and will be able to post more! But baby comes first, we understand!

How's it going so far?

Re: Hello All

hi Ahsiek

Welcome to the group! 10 months old was my favorite age with my kids! They were happy all the time and so fun at that stage. (Not that they arent happy now but they are 17 and 18 and not quite as cuddly as they once were!) So who would want to play on a computer when you have that to play with!

But we are all here to help you with your journey!

And yes we do look for you when you dont come around........................
