  • Back and MORE determined than ever !!!!!!!

    I am back to the STAC - had thyroid surgery late last June and just couldn't get the meds and myself back together for whatever reason.

    I tried WW (again) and found that although it is a wonderful program, it just doesn't work for me. I know Atkins works and have now been back on CHEAT FREE for 5 days -- I am more determined now than ever. I have tried and failed due to my own fault in the past (too many times to count) but I know this is the time I keep on keeping on.

    Last year in March I wrote about my friend leaving for Chicago for 10 week and us starting a brand new business. Well, we are still best friends but for family reasons she had to sell out -- so now my family owns the candle business 100%.

    I vow here and now despite the busy times I will NOT fail this time - Atkins works and I will succeed !!!!!!

    I have been reading and still remain impressed by all the wonderful people here -- thanks for having me back

            Welcome, brighterdaysahead!
            STAC is the key to success, I think. We all seem to have more resolve this time.
            I noticed our stats are almost the same but I like your "next goal 199" - much better than 200! I might have to change mine!
            We CAN do this!

                Welcome back, Angie, and best of luck to you! This place makes all the difference... stay close! 5 days is a great start, and hopefully you're over the induction flu/initial cravings. Hang in there!

                  Hi Angie!
                  Boy did your email sound familiar to me! You WILL succeed! I will be rooting you on! Your starting weight is where I'm at now, can't wait to get to where you are now in your current weight, I need to lose 19lbs for that. My ultimate goal is close to yours too! And I understand about "busy times" and how hard it can be to stay on track when things are hetic but I, like you vow to not fail! I'm trying to plan better too. I know from end June-Sept. will be busy for me so I'm gonna check in with ya and maybe we can help each other stay strong!

                    Thanks so much for the replies -- this place is filled with AMAZING people.

                    Adena -- I am over all the bad stuff and feeling GREAT - I do find that like before, I am not hungry much at all.

                    Pinkwoman -- I put 199 because I want to be in onederland

                    ActressinLA -- first I refuse to call you fat LOL -- we WILL succeed. I am here to help keep you strong too and appreciate you helping me !! Planning is the key in everything, because if you don't plan you have to wing it and that could be dangerous

                    Thanks again for the support - looking forward to getting to know you all !!

                    Have a GREAT cheat free day !!!!!
