    Fate led me back

    I have been AWOL from Atkins for about 2 years. Needless to say, the only change I have had is up! I was looking for these boards the night before last but since I had a computer crash and lost my links, I couldn't remember the exact link and couldn't find it. So I gave up and thought "Oh, well. Maybe I will try later"

    This morning by circumstance of being busy, I only grabbed a water and some cheese for breakfast, planning on having cereal or doughnuts later. When I checked my email...there was a private message from someone I knew when I was on here before.

    Guess now is the time.

    Hello, my name is Amy. i live in Montana with my 3 kids and hubby of 16 years. I work for Girl Scouts and get to play at camp every summer.

    I was never more than 5-10# over growing up (but thought I was much more). After my kids I let myself indulge in emotional eating to battle baby blues and just kept the habit after that. I am now 290# at 5'6". I turned 36 today.

    Can't wait to join the journey witth you all!

                  Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you. So glad you are back. Where exactly do we go when we leave here? I went to a place of neglect and even sometimes shame. I am so glad to be back to the land of self control, commitment and goals. Glad you are back to. Have a great time.
