Hey ya'all! 
I have been missing you! Yeah, I know, my own fault that I have not been here! Life has a nasty way of getting in the way of me getting around to the things that are important to me...like logging on to the 
site. Summer has been busy keeping up with the kids and working 2 jobs. One of them in which I am actually asst. manager at our local water park! (Ha! Me working at a pool! That wouldn't have happened before Atkins and my 100+ pound weight loss!) Anyway, I am busy AND getting a tan!
Here is where I need some encouragement! Although I am maintaining well and exercising every day. Also continue to lift weights faithfully, I have put back on about 10 pounds. (give or take the daily water fluctuations!) I have been letting myself taste bits of sweets here and there and I know I am on the road to trouble. I must get these 10 pounds back off. I had made myself a promise that if I ever gained back more than 5 lbs. I would deal with it right away so as not to let things get our of control.
The thing that is worrying me most is that I thought I would be able to drop them pretty quickly and it is not working. I am the only one that knows about the 10 # gain. My clothes still fit pretty much the same and hubby says he can't see any gain. BUT I KNOW BECAUSE THE SCALE TELLS ME EVERY MORNING! I have to get them off. Does anyone have any great advice for me. I must confess that I have been dabbling a bit also with diet sodas again. Not excessive but definately more than I had been allowing previousally. Can this really be enough to cause me to hang on to the pounds?
I guess secretly I am afraid that my body is turning on me and that I am not going to be able to bring my weight back down. OK! I am now rambling
I will stop. Please advise. Has anyone been where I am? I neverl want to be overweight again. And thanks to you guys, I know I have all the encouragement and love I need to be a lifetime achiever in this area of my life!!!!
Please post I am looking forward to hearing from my old friends!
