    Re: setback!!!!

    Alaska,

    I want to share one of my affirmations that I have been using for the I AM WORTH IT Challenge that I am currently in.

    ~ No one can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.

    Don't dwell on what was done during the last week. Today is the day to start making a new ending. You know what you need to do. You've identified the problem. If you can get a squeeky clean 2 week induction under your belt, you can immediately move on to OWL and start adding some great food in.

    Losing the diet cokes will be hard, but it is for the best. Best wishes.

      Restart Induction: 1/4/08
      Weight:375
      Current Weight 1/16/08: 360.6


      This pic was in 2005, I weighed 372.

      This was taken October 2007, I weigh 375.

      I was on atkins last year in the early fall and lost about 30 pounds. I obviously gained it back...but I know this is the right diet for me as it works very good. So I am back!

        hey alaska, i need to give up the diet sodas too...i just don't want to!! but, i am wondering if they trigger my sugar addiction. so, i am going to give them up and see how i do. i'm stalling weight loss wise too...can't quite seem to permanently give up the 180's...

          alaska, come ON now, we are doing this TOGETHER!! you can do it. if you absolutely CANNOT kick the DC habit, at least cut back to one a day. go back to induction x 3 days, and then move on sistah!
          i also have not lost since induction, where i only lost 4 pounds, but just remember, a MONTH from now you WILL be down, if you stick with it. one day of going over by 6-7 carbs is no biggie. forgive, and forget.
          you can DO IT!!!
