  • I'm Baaaaaaaaaaaack!

    After losing 67 pounds last year from Feb - Oct, I decided to get off the LC diet for the holidays. BIG MISTAKE! I was at my low of 248.5 after Halloween and creeped back up to 270 this morning. I forgot my eating habits as I started to eat hotdogs and other things that weren't truly the best for Atkins.

    Anyway, I dusted off my Atkins New Revolution book and will start up again tomorrow.

      All I have to do is look at a picture of me over 300 pounds and that's all the motivation that I need. Seeing the scale this morning was a real wake up call !!!

        Welcome cnbweb!
        I too was motivated by my own picture of me at 374 lbs. I have before pictures on my fridge to remind me of who I don't want to look like and they help me keep motivated.
        Happy to here you have the book and read it. Keep it close and referr to it often. I liked to choose Atkins Allowed food on the Glycemic Index. Here's a link www.glycemicindex.com if you would like to learn more about it. Best of health to you and yours!

          Hi, cnbweb

          I remember you. Welcome back.

          Hey, you'll get those re-gained pounds off in no time. Really! I think that those who have done well before, stray a bit, and then return, are some of the most dedicated and successful Atkineers of all. You've experienced what Atkins can do for you when followed correctly, and you've also seen what can happen when you don't... and how easy it is to let that happen.

          Just view this little setback as a valuable lesson learned. There are many of us who are living proof that you can do even better on Atkins, the second time around.

          And I know that you can be one of those people.
