well, i'm back ladies and gentlemen. no one here will remember me but i was on these forums around this time last year. the only thing was, last year? i was about 10 kilos lighter and starting atkins. at that time, during the first one and a half weeks of induction i lost 19 pounds. 19 POUNDS! in a week and a half. unfortunately, i went into hospital for surgery and i came out fatter than ever. granted, some of the kilos ive stacked on since then have been my own doing (eating pancakes right before bed, what the **** was i thinking???) and now? now im heavier and miserable than ever.
so im back, back with a killer instinct. i will do it, this time. non negotiable. im so tired of being overweight. im tired of feeling 'big' around everyone. i feel like everything i do right now is impeeded by my weight. i feel fat, i look fat, i am fat. but not anymore, the buck stops here.
so im in my second day of induction and about to leave for a 20 minute walk (i figure in the beginning, i can manage a 20 minute walk a day, then step that up as i get lighter).
ive heard all sorts of stories where atkins isnt as effective the second time around, so im prepared for some slower results. i wont be deterred, however. i will win this battle.
one thing im keen on doing though, is not looking at the scales every five minutes. i figure im going to know what weight i want to be when i get there. ive got around 40 kilos to lose, but i refuse to be constantly motivated by the scales. im more keen on seeing my gargantuan belly disappear than getting all hung up about *exactly* what i weigh.
so im back. im back here and i will do it this time. i wanted to shout it from the rooftops. so here i am, posting. at least putting this in writing up here makes me accountable.
