    Anyone to restart 2/9?

    My father died December 18 so I have been struggling with
    my emotions on that and my eating has not gone well.

    I aim to restart Atkins Monday 2/09 because I know Spring
    is coming up and I will feel better emotionally if I exercise.

    Anyone else to start Monday?

    I am not re-starting but please feel like you can jump right in and make your self at home here. I think everyone is at different places in their weight loss and we would be happy to have a new face in STAC.

    welcome

      I have been back on plan, but reading your post I figured the 9th is as good a day as any to commit to really getting my exercise back on track too. I would be happy to join you.

       It's not about the results. Its about the process.

        I am not re-starting tomorrow, but I am finishing up one week of induction and start the second week tomorrow. I allowed myself to get sloppy and I am trying to get back on track with food, water and exercise. I am buckling down and getting back to what I know works.

        I am sorry for your loss. Losing a parent will throw you into a tailspin. Be kind to yourself.

        Sunny!

            Good food day today, but fell a bit short on exercise--not a good start but I will do better tomorrow!

              Certainly, you can join! Welcome! I know I do way better if I commit to other people.

              It's gorgeous outside, after record cold for the last couple of months, so I'm going for a long walk.

              Although I didn't eat anything illegal last night, I broke my own rules about eating after dinner, eating when not truly hungry and eating dessert type stuff when I said I would use minimal Splenda and not eat any dessert type induction foods.

              Maybe we should start some kind of challenge that encompasses food, exercise and water. We are not really doing Atkins without all three. We could restrict it to only members of STAC. It has to be approved by Jimmy-Jo first. Any thoughts?

                Okay, after taking my measurements a little earlier, I am giving my own self a swift kick in the butt! So, I will be starting over today. I am posting this so I don't cry hysterically and eat the box of chocolate chip cookies I have on the kitchen table. So, I am officially holding myself accountable, and committing 100%!

                      I am starting today and I have done well but I have the HORRIBLE caffeine withdrawal headache! I know this is what I have to go through..... I am just glad I exercised this morning becasue I feel like I am in a fog today and the only thing keeping me awake is the throbbing in my brain! Tomorrow will be better.....

                        welcome and welcome back to all of you!! Any day is a great day to start Atkins - Pie4Me, the loss of a parent is so hard to deal with, there are so many who understand where you are right now so go slow and take care of yourself.

                        There are plenty of challenges out there to help keep everyone accountable...check them out and join a couple. Before it started raining here this afternoon I took my little pup and we took a 2 mile walk around our sub-division, it was 72 when we left and 68 when we got back, but it was a wonderful day to be outside.

                        You have all kinds of support here if anyone needs anything all you have to do is ask!!

                            I don't eat after 7:00 p.m. This worked well for me for over three years. You would think in that length of time it would be so ingrained, I would never go back to my old ways. I did it a couple of times and soon I was eating non-stop until midnight--just like the old days. I am struggling with it still, even though I stopped about 6 weeks ago. It's getting a little easier, but I still think about food every few minutes.
