Anyone starting over today?

[mjlanham2]

I have not done Atkins in 3 years and I am really excited about getting started again. I have almost 50 pounds to lose so here I go. I was just wondering if anyone else was starting today so maybe we could help each other. Have a great day!!!!!

Welcome to STAC !! The good thing about starting again is you already know what to expect. If you think about it, you probably can figure out what caused you to quit last time, and can use that knowledge to prevent it from happening again.
Look forward to reading your progress on the daily roll call.

I also started Dec1st for the 2nd time. I've got to loose over 80 pounds. I was 292 and now 6 days in i'm at 278. About the third day I was walking back and forth to the fridge looking for that quick snack but i would just fill my glass with water. Now I don't even have food cravings any more and i am eating smaller portions when i do eat.

starting now for the 4th time. my biggest pitfalls are hunger; no matter how much i eat i never feel satisfied and slow progress. my first attempt i lost 7 pounds the first week. last time i tried it took me 3 months to drop that much and then a quit..also its lack of variety. i'm not a big fan of cooked veggies and there is only so much salad a person can eat. i'm hoping that having support on the board will make the difference this time.

I restarted today, not because I "fell off the wagon", but I was sick with the flu for 9 days, and ate some things that weren't in the extended induction list ...I couldn't really cook when I had 104 fever and slept for a week! And for days I barely ate anything, except drank tons of water.

The day i got sick my DH shopped for groceries and had to go back out of town. He got me to the Doctor, and went out before his flight and bought food things easy to grab and eat when getting out of bed for 5 minutes and back.

I am soooo happy to be back on track today.
