  • Need Support!

    I fell off the wagon and strayed VERY far from anything resembling the Atkins way of life. I need to get back on the wagon and I want to start right now! I am very thankful for this message board and for the encouragement and support I always get here. So, thanking you in advance for your support!

    welcome back. Joining the new exercise challengfe should be great support for your mandatory exercise part of your Atkins.

    Have you cleared the house of the tempting foods? if not now is the time to give them away and restock your healthy induction foods.

    happy low carbing.

          Welcome back! Now you know how easy it is to fall off the wagon...you need to make some plans so that you can jump back on and not fall again. Think back at what happened to make you quit before. Write out a plan of action to keep you going forward if/when you hit similar obstacles. Instead of reaching for unacceptable foods, make a plan to walk, exercise, drink water, hook up with a weight loss buddy. I formed a friendship with a friend here in the ADBB and we helped each other when we hit hurdles. It was my life-support system besides coming daily to the ADBB for encouragment and inspiraton.

          You can do this. It is so worth the effort!!!! Best wishes, and keep us posted on your progress!!

          Dedication gives wings to our dreams and keeps them in flight! In One Word...COMMITTMENT.
