  • After a long time of lurking, I have finally made the commitment

    Hi everyone, I was an active member of this boad almost two years ago. Then I let others talk me into other WOE instead of what I knew to be true for me....Atkins worked for me. It wasn't only the weight loss, it was experiencing better energy levels, waking up in the morning instead of wishing I could sleep the morning away, better attitude, and more focus. Those are the things I miss!! But now I am back and I have made a commitment to myself to work the plan and no more excuses!!!

    So I just wanted to say hi and I can't wait to talk with the people on this board more as the days go by.....

    Welcome back! I did Atkins for almost a year, 3 yrs ago. I remember when I used to wake up at 6:30, getting up before the kids, it was such a peaceful "me" time. Lately whenever I can, I sleep however long I can, and it sucks wasting the day away like that! (I'm on day 2 of second time around)..You can do it!

        Welcome back! I'm glad you made the decision on what works for you! I know what you mean about the energy levels -- isn't that an incredible side effect?

                Hey Avyance, AT LEAST YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE FIGHTING FOR, KETOSIS, those are all the signs of the ketogenic diet, energy, attitude, feeling the diet is right for your body. I experience those every single day, they are priceless! Absolutely worth all your time and energy...You are gonna thrive!!!

                    I like what Outback Jess said..the good stuff you experience with this way of eating is priceless. Good thing to keep in mind for those days when we feel the edge of the slippery slope coming close!
