Hey Gang, I just wanted to say hi. I've been out in Long Beach, California for the past 27 weeks on a travel nurse assignment. I'm back in Orlando now. I hit the wall on Atkins and just quit losing no matter what I did. I switched to another food plan 3 months ago. I broke my plateau and now I'm just a few pounds from goal which I'd hoped to reach before coming home. The new plan is working for me but I gotta tell you, I sure miss the heavy cream, bacon, full fat cheeses, salad dressings and alcohol. But most of all I miss my buddies on this site. Sure I found another on line support group for my current plan, but I still think of you all often and wish you the very best. I talked to Chris a few weeks ago and he's having a hard time. He's such a good guy and I wish he'd get back on track. It's so hard to regain the weight physically and emotionally. (been there, done that) I'm gonna do my very best to keep it off. When I got to California I was wearing a size 12, I'm now in a petite 4-6, and this morning weighed 231.5. My goal is 128 so I'm almost there. I couldn't have made it without Atkins and this wonderful Atkins family. I'll check in from time to time to see how you all are doing, and feel free to email me anytime. I miss y'all.

hey Amy welcome back. I sure hope that is a typo about you weighing 231.5 this morning. If not where the heck do you shop to get petites to fit that rock hard muscle body of yours.by the book atkinseer

Hi Amy
good to hear from you.
To change it to read 141 pounds lost you need to change the figures 125 to 141 in the coding. Highlight the image and click on the 'insert image' button then change the numbers in the box and it should change like so:
