    ok. I was back at 250lbs

    I was back at 250lbs and can say with all honesty since I have started back on ATKINS on July 1st, 2008 I am now down to 246lbs woohoo. It will go much faster if I eat right (per atkins) and exercise this time around. I see the stretch marks turning purple and everytime that happens it means I am losing weight....yahhhhhhhhhhh

    I will only be weighing myself once a month, sick of being obsessed with that mechanical evil monster and food.


    anyway I'm back for good.


    Restart: DEC. 16th, 2009 (why wait for Christmas)

    Mini Goals:
    240 :

    MAIN GOAL :
    180lbs

    Re: ok. I was back at 250lbs

    Hi ya!

    We are about the same weight... I was 247lbs last weigh in. I have also decided to weigh in monthly as I do far too much scale hopping & that dictates my mood!

    Crazy I know! I'm on day 16 of Atkins had a bit of a wobble on monday & its taken me til now to get back in ketosis... won't be doing that again in a hurry!

    Good luck with your weight loss... what day are you weighing in on?



    If I can repeat failure.. then I can repeat success!

          Welcome back to your ADBB family, Mirya
          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!

            Thank you so much guys. I really appreciate it. I have missed you all so much and talk about the bulletin board and how supportive it is to everyone I speak to, especially when they ask how I doing it this time. Tell them all ATKINS is sooooo the way to go but you HAVE to follow it correctly, its not hard, just a little time consuming, but well worth the effort.


            I think I did what a lot of people do, get to the stall point after induction (in my case extended induction) and get frustrated think well i lost 20lbs, its good enough. ITS NOT GOOD ENOUGH, not for me anyway. and see had I stuck to it b4 I would prolly be down to onederland

              Welcome back! Sometimes it takes a while for it to sink in that this is the right way to go to thin and healthy. This time, it will be for life!

                It bet it feels good to be back. I wish I had the strength to weigh in only once a month. I step on the scale about 4 times a day. Good luck to you and welcome back
