  • Me Too!

    I am SOOOOO back and SOOOO happy to be back!
    Last spring I went on Atkins and lost over 20 pounds. So I went off it and gained it all back. Go figure. Such an easy way of eating, yet we sabotage ourselves and gain the weight back. For my birthday last year I got 3 "fat joke" cards. I vowed then and there that I would not be fat for my next birthday. That was last December and it's taken me this long to realize that Atkins is the only way for me and my lifestyle.The only thing I want for my next birthday will be a new wardrobe! That's over 3 months away, so I know I'll have lost quite a bit by then!

    I've already been on induction for 3 days. Not PERFECT, but I work some days from 6am to 8pm, and if I;m not fully prepared, I may have a bite of something just to get me by. I had a few cherries and a yogurt sweetened with fruit juice. I haven't had any actual sugar though, and I sure am feeling great. The scale even dropped a pound. Today I weighed 188.8. There I said it, and now it's on record.

    It's great to be back. I feel like I am among friends. No one really understands what Atkins is about, so I don't get alot of support IRL. Thanks for everything guys!

    Welcome back and good luck on your continued journey.

    Not very nice that people send you "fat" cards. They probably mean no harm, but still... I get comments on my weight all the time from "well meaning" friends. I try to take it in stride and keep up the constant battle of the bulge.

    How is everything going today?

        Thanks for the welcome back! Day 5 and still going strong, even though I had to work at 4am, which usually makes for a tough day of eating! i've even lost a few pounds, something I haven't seen in a very long time!
