I Lost on Atkins Before Lets Try it Again

[angel_glitter_45]

Ok so i lost on Atkins before and i did a pretty good job,almost perfect. Well, I mean, I think the bad stuff was with the ketchup that was not low carb or the creamy italian dressing that did was not atkins low carb and accidental cottage cheese(small things like that) Nonetheless, I lost about 13 pounds in a week, and i was very proud. I have still kept that off actually ,so i have decided to go back on it. Today will be my starting day. Previously, I was about 210 at my starting weight. I am now down at roughly around 193. I am really excited. I want to obtain my goal weight of being approximately 130. That means about 63 pounds which ,for some reason, doesn't seem like it is going to be **** on earth because of the fact you can eat good food still ,as long as you ,follow it perfectly to get the best possible results, but i am willing to do that now because i know how great and how fast aktins really does work. I have witnessed it first hand before. My goal is to lose it all in about 6 months, since atkins works faster then most other diets, to lose all my weight approximately 63 pounds ,and soon i will be in the best shape of my life. I will use this board now as a support system. I will try my very hardest. I really have never wanted to do something this much before, and i am willing to do anything, healthy of course to get to it. Thus far, today i have had 3 pieces of bacon and soon i will have 2 fried eggs. I will keep it up because i want all this weight gone in a matter of half a year. Hopefully, you all come and support me on my message board here because i will need it very much. I quite possibly will start making a daily journal ,one here, of what i eat just so it is easier for me. I hate to write it down in my notebook anyway. It seems better when people see it and can give you feedback on how well or maybe say don't have to much of that kind of critque. Thanks so much. I hope to hear from you soon! Kelsey

Hi Kelsey!

You have some big goals- best of luck to you.

How long ago did you stop the Atkins life style?

I am guessing the bacon and eggs are ok for induction- don't forget your vegi's and most important your water.

Hey Kelsey, we are soooo glad to have you back....I hope you make it a daily event!!! Coming to STAC and hanging out with us...We all loose weight but you know, I would be remiss if I did say that your body has a speed and a tempo all it's own, and I know that first 13 pounds was amazing, and you may be a fast looser, but usually we all slow down, our bodies have to catch up to the whole thing, and go through that phase where they feel some how they are loosing weight....
Keep reading the book, and stay true to the course, and if you do, you will loose all the weight you desire to...but if you get impatient and tinker with things, if you go off and come back after a bit of that your metabolism won't play along....
Best to rejoice! You've found something your body works well with, and just settle into a lifestyle....I've been here over a yr. people get so excited and then their expectations go up very high, and then their bodies slow down a bit! Mine did. I am where I am because I did not quit when things took a slower turn...there is so much most of us have found from the lifestyle, I hope you will stay around to find it too!
