I'm back cant believe doctor said loose weight

[cindyz911]

Hi I am back after being off atkins for quite awhile and gaing my weight back
My fault no excuses.Well went to see my endo a few weeks ago and my chloestrol is high BP is high enery is low..Well I always complained about my weight and none of my doctors seemed worried about it.Well not this endo he said you have gained 17lbs in 3 months and my thyroid levels are normal for once(I am hypothyroid) so I cant use that as an excuse He weighed me and said 157 was not ok.I know this of course but I guess I didnt think he would care one way or another.I am taking omega 3 per his orders for chloestrol and have to be retesed in a few months if it doesnt go down I go on meds. I officially started atkins again Jan23 06 I had already lost 10lbs since my appointment had been real sick.Since Jan23 I lost 5lbs .Now if I could just learn to stay off the scales everyday..

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome This has to become a way of life for me because everytime I go back to eating badly I feel terrible and I gain the weight back and keeping adding more and more pounds.I have a family history of deaths due to obesity and a few have died at my age so I am afraid I will end up falling in that catigory..But I will be honest it is hard I grew up on junk food but even back then when I was way too thin I thought I was overweight which lead to an eating disorder I have had a love hate relationship with food for as long as I can remember, maybe oneday I will get brave enough to post some pictures of how bad I looked and I thought I was huge.So for me weighing what I weigh now and when I lok in the mirror I see an image that everyone says isnt as big as I see it.Does this make any sense.Ok I am rambling kinda having a blue day.So any way thanks again..I will keep visiting and reading here because it helps me.
Oh Terry I have tried to hide them in my trunk I get lots of exercise going out getting them I put them in hubbys car and told him not to let me retrieve them he said ok he will hide them at his job..
