:wave Hi all!
:icondance Well, here I am! I have made it to day 14!!! The longest I have ever stuck with most things, actually! LOL! I can't believe that I made it this far! It is so unbelievable but I can't believe that I wasted so much time in the past cheating over and over and over again; lying to myself.
Now that I look back, maybe it was because I was truly not ready. Like I heard Dr. Phil say once, "when you are serious about losing weight; really ready, then you will take the steps, walk the walk and do it; no question." I don't think that I was truly ready or serious as I thought about losing weight. Sure, I have said so many times over so many years, I was tired of being fat....blah, blah, blah, like I am sure many of us have done. I had many opportunities to lose weight and each time, I could never stick to it because of on reason or another. Most of the plans were not right was part of the problem but 99.999% of it was ME. Not willing to committ and do the work.
I have learned alot about myself these past 14 days and what I can do if I really put my mind to it. I finally reached my "rock bottom" 14 days ago and really did the work this time. I owe most of my success to all of you. I don't think I would have tried Atkins again seriously, if I hadn't come here and read about all of your struggles, gotten great/terrific/wonderful support and encouraement and read all of your success stories and Atkin "do-over" stories (lol!). To know that no matter if I failed my induction or succeeded, that you all would encourage me and still support me. Ok I am getting to wordy, sentimental and all that crap. Just want to say thanks to all and I will post my numbers tomorrow! I am so excited! :dancingb:
