Re: So I hear.....

Welcome sweetie!!! Get that junk out of your house so you won't even have to look at it!!!! I am glad you are here and i am sure you will do great! I think I am losing slower this time around, but nonetheless it is coming off... and I feel better! I have chucked the scales till September and I am concentrating on how I feel!

Re: So I hear.....

Welcome home shera!

Consider yourself kicked. There are a few rules you gotta follow around these parts:

1. Read all stickys at the top of the forum. There's tons of good advise and information there for you on your return to Atkins.

2. Post. Check in daily ....... the more the better will help you thru the induction. If you dont post and we begin to worry, Finelly will let loose all four of her siamese attack cats at once and they will hunt you down and drag you back. They are on call 24/7.

3. Drink your water. Exercise. Supplements.

4. This next one is very important............ take your measurements. When the scale doesnt show your progress your tape measure will be your best friend. If you like, you can log into (for free) Mybodycomp.com and list your measurements. We just began this week another challenge and in another 2 weeks it will be time to remeasure. Watch for Finellys reminder post on this. You can then add your inches lost to the sticky at the top of the forum where we are keeping track of total inches lost by members of the forum.

5. Did I mention... drink your water?

6. Also very important..... when you struggle.... IF you begin to struggle with your woe..... come here and let us know so you can chat your way thru it and dont ever feel embarrassed to say you are having trouble. That is when you need help the most. There is always someone here to help you thru. That is what is truely the best thing about this forum. Everyone is here for you when you really need it. So use this as a tool to make your Atkins work for you.

Re: So I hear.....

Thank you everyone so much. I pmd skyye to join the exercise challenge.

Terry - Thanks for all the advice. I will read the stickies on the board, I LOVE water, dont have a problem exercising (that is one thing i DID stick with and probably the reason why I only gained 7 pounds back).

I am not embarrassed to say Im having problems EVER, so dont worry about that girl!! I say what im feeling, lol and my brain cant keep up fast enough so I dont have chance to worry about embarrassing myself! LOL

Thank you to the rest of you too, I really appreciate the kind words and encouragement, ima gonna need it!!!!!

Re: So I hear.....

Welcome Shashee, oh yes you don't want to be on the recieiving end of the attack cats...or my mouthy attack parrots for that matter! You will so love it here!

[Weighless]

Re: So I hear.....

Welcome shashee! There's a great group of supportive people here that'll help you with whatever you need.

[shashee]

Re: So I hear.....

You all have been so wonderful already... I will check in everyday, not only for the sake of saving myself from the attack cats, but more importantly keeping me on track!

[Terry]

Re: So I hear.....

The cats AND parrots are bringing the big guns out.

You really dont want us to do that!

Also we resort to Tutus for those "special" people that dont check in. Gotta reign em in somehow.

(And you know who you special people are. )
