I started Atkins *again* last year after having my first child. I had really let myself go just prior to getting pregnant and once I became pregnant I just kept packing on the pounds like crazy. When I had my son I weighed about 280. I started Atkins 2 weeks after he was born (not sure what my starting weight was as some lbs. had already come off). I managed to get down to 170 by April of this year; then we found out we were expecting again. So here I am, 6 days after having my healthy baby girl :] I am extremely motivated to get back down to a healthy weight. I am on day 2 of induction and doing well so far.

Re: Back again :]
Hi, welcome, and congrats! I had a baby girl in September, so we're not TOO far apart!
If I may, I'd like to remind you that breastfeeding on Induction is not recommended by Dr. A... so if you're breastfeeding, probably not a good idea to do Induction right now...Jackie - Misplaced Missouri Girl, now in fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada!
Lost 15 pounds 9/18/08-01/08/09, Ended on OWL Rung 6 (had a baby!)
Restarted Induction 11/30/09
