I'm On My Way (again)!!!

[mommyto3]

Well, it's been a week and I'm already down a solid 5 lbs.!!! I'm starting atkins again after 6 years (in which time I managed to have 3 kids). Amazed at how well its working this time around! Seems much easier to stay on track. Maybe I'm just much more motivated. I'm just not feeling hungry like on other diets...

Also, has anyone in the STAC heard about Vitamin C supplements helping second (or more) time Atkins dieters? Someone suggested it to me, just wondering if anyone else had heard of this?

Hi there!

I have also re-started Atkins on 5 August 2008. Have never reached goal weight, because I never stuck to the plan. This time around I am more aware of how stubborn my body has become with digesting carbs!!! It gets worse as we get older, I'm sure.

I have lost about 1.5 kgs over the past 6 days. Better than nothing.

I am holding thumbs for you. Things can only get better.

Congrats on your great loss and your 3 little ones!
And RJ, you are doing great. I'm not sure what 1.5 kg is in pounds, but any loss is great! Even little ones add up in time and at the very least the scale is going in the right direction!
I restarted on this past Monday as well. I guess we all picked a great time to start. I had a great successfull go at Atkins before. WEnt from a size 22/24 to a 8/10. I had a bonus baby in December! While I love her dearly she is finally sleeping so I am back on board for Atkins at size 16/18 now. Hoping to make it back down and stay there this time. I had a great week with a loss of 9 pounds!
Keep up the good work ya'll! Hope you both are very successfull!
