      Welcome back Kiwifraise

      Make sure you reread your DANDR and plan your menus to stay on track.

      Congratulations on the baby! You may find your body reacts differently to Atkins after giving birth, so you may not lose these pesky pounds as quickly this time but I am sure you will soon be a loser!!
      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
      Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

            Welcome back and congrats on the baby! My numbers are remarkably similar to yours BUT I don't have the excuse of a pregnancy in mine! I did the "stop and start Atkins" bit over and over while I was regaining the weight - actually, I am CERTAIN that that only made things worse. Now, I too am back and focused. I am at day 9 and refocused in a way I couldn't seem to get until the Christmas photos and the scale on New Year's Day snapped me into reality...You see, I was in serious denial! The good news is that while I wasn't expecting it, I do believe that things are going even better than they did the first time around...I am attributing this to starting exercise on Day one. If my current loss holds through day 14, I will be ahead of where I was when I successfully lost the weight back in 2003 - and even then I was considered to have low metabolic resistance. I know that you can do it too!!! I don't have MSN, but feel free to PM - We have the same high weight and goal...I'm waiting until I finish induction to put all my info in my signature!

            Here's to your success!
