  • I'm Baaaaack...

    Hey, everyone. I'm back! Some of you may remember me as obkbbby and I joined last April. I forgot my password, so had to re-register.

    I had a difficult summer dealing with parental issues and summer school. The first two weeks of school weren't much of a picnic, either, but I think things have settled down and we are sort of into a routine. So, I decided to come back and give this another go!

    For those of you who do not know, I am a special education teacher. I teach students in grades K-5 who are severely and profoundly disabled as well as students with autism. I also have an autistic son who is the center of my universe. At any rate, I am generally mentally and physically exhausted by the end of the day, which is exacerbated by my poor health. When I stared Atkins in April, I was feeling so much better. Since I fell off the wagon, I feel worse than ever. Time to get my butt in gear!

    So, here I am! Back in the saddle. I've missed you guys. I see there are lots of new people, too, since I've been absent! Very cool!

      Welcome back! You've made the right decision to come back and get this lifestyle going for you again! The first week is hard but just remember what a wonderful feeling you will have when you get past the first few days!

                      Thanks so much, everyone! I really missed the support and the love here. It's hard being out there on your own, you know? I mean, my family is supportive, but since they are not doing this, it's not quite the same!

                      Hey, Jess! It's so good to 'hear' your voice! I am looking forward to roll call every morning and checking in at night. This community was a big part of my early success, so I need to stick with what works! ~~And you look awesome, girl!
