  • Here we go again.

    Hello fellow atkineers,

    Some might remember me from last year. Las August I celebrated losing over 80 pounds 50 on Atkins. I was so excited to be thinner and full of energy, that I started to do everything that lead me to gain weight to start with. I was going out to parties and dinners and over endulging, then winter hit and I was inside more often and eatting all the good stuff that the holidays bring. By the end of the Holidays i was up 10 pounds, not too much but up reguardless. I can honestly say I could of stopped it there and got back on track by getting on that treadmill and moving around a but more. To be truely honesti was happy being lazy! I began to feel a bit tired in the early part of January and that just propelled me into being lazier and unmotivated. Well Here we are July 7 of 2008 and I'm a whopping 235 pounds again. Bursting all my new clothing. 2 weeks ago I went and purchased a few pair of pants with elastic waist bands....ELASTIC waist bands, I felt like oh well the weight is coming back and there's noting I can do about it. Then on the 4th of July I came accross my medical report one from before my run with atkins and one after. Before I lost the weight I was boarder line diabetic my colestrol was throught the roof and everything that could kill you was staring me in the face. My results after were 100 normal. I had regained control of my life and my health and because I was lazy and QUIT on a good thing I find myself again looking at time bomb...tick tock tick tock......Boom Your dead! I need support more than ever to get back to great. The world is loving when your healthly and cruel when your not. This is my second time around and this time I need to learn to change me mental health not just my physical health. Please join me as I reinvent myself again.

    Good for you, I am so glad you are back. Two years ago I lost 24 pounds and never felt better on this WOL. All it took was one dinner at Olive Garden and here it is two years later and I am back. Do NOT give up on yourself. If I can do it, you can do it!! I tried so many dumb things to lose weight these past two years, even spent 300 dollars on NutraSystem. The food was NASTY and I didn't lose a pound. I finally am back, and I have lost 10 pounds in two weeks and feel great (except for a nasty carb hangover from cheating on the 4th). You can do it, and we are all here to help and support you.
    Try to get 80-100 ounces a day!

    Whether you think you can, or you think you can't, you're right.

      Welcome back!

      I wish you great success. You'll do great with your new drive and determination to stay steady on with your goals. Remember to try not to look back at where you were last year, focus on where you're going to go this year.

      Play hard and plan ahead!

          Glad you are back Jorge. I started over today myself. I lost 70 - and put on 20 lbs since December... Funny how that started! My friend who is an event planner had a party cancellation and needed my spare fridge to store 200 boxes of Godiva (4pc) chocolate gift boxes. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? The party never got rescheduled and she refused to take them back! so 800 pieces of chocolate later, my addiction was at full force and I haven't been able to recover - until today!

          Let's do this!
