Starting Over

[noregrets]

Tomorrow i will be starting atkins all over again. I tried it once and had gone from 215lbs to 175lbs but i went thru a depressed stage and gained it all back. No one in my family knows but my self confidence and worth is beyond shot and I feel a hint of depression coming back on because of my appearance so here i am ready to create a new start for myself. I realize that a lot of my eating is more emotional than anything so i hope to change all of this beginning tomorrow. I have a dr appt tomorrow so i will add my stats once i weigh in tomorrow.

Re: Starting Over

I like your name, no regrets! I did a similar loss and re-gain, probably because of depression also. I've just been back on for 3 weeks and once I got through induction flu I would have to say, I feel as good as the last time. I'm still trying to work out the regrets-but with your "no regrets" attitude, you'll be a success.

I thought I had beat emotional eating, but I think I will always be susceptible. I am keeping a journal on this board-and even when I reach goal I'm going to keep writing in it so I can stay on top of that emotional eating. This board is a great way to keep your commitment. We'll be here for you.
