getting off the couch now!!!

[fennela]

Hi Everyone,

I am about to do my third round of Atkins starting this Thursday. I did my 2nd round earlier this year and had great success. I decided to have a dinner party and got swept up in the moment and jumped off the wagon. I thought I would just pick myself up and jump right back.
I do not know if this happens to anyone else but instantly I dive bombed into a deep black hole emotionally, I craved comfort food and puffed up. I was tired all the time, moody and felt ugly.
It's been 3 months and Thursday I will be getting back on the horse. I am actually excited.
Wish me luck

Fennela

Good luck, Fennela. You can do this!

I can SOO relate to the emotional roller coaster. I get the same way when I eat junk carbs, or even too many complex carbs.

Is there anywhere on this site that I can talk to people about problems in my life that are causing me to not eat? It is not about diet...but problems in my life that I have no control over?
