I'm back and very determined

[GinaDaye]

I don't know if there's anyone here from 2003, but that was the year I lost 60 pounds on Atkins and was a regular on this board (under the name of Tanzonite). I got to within 15 pounds of my goal and I don't know what happened . . . well, yes I do, I fell off the wagon and couldn't find the gumption to climb back on . . . but here I am with 2/3's of the weight back on and desperately unhappy with myself. I started back on Atkins this past week. No waiting until after the holidays because by then I could have another 5 lbs. on! I think I've got myself in the mindset now - and I'm hoping to find the friendship and support I found back in '03. My best to everyone struggling with the issue of weight . . .
