If any of you remember me, it's been quite some time!
I've slipped big time with this. Since December, I've been on medication and no matter how hard I tried, I kept gaining because of it.
I've come off it, and everything from the last year has caught up with me. Some of you may remember the endless list of problems I had last year (broken engagement/dumped, death of a close family member, getting fired etc etc) It's spiralled into depression and I'm now getting help by counselling, but it's not going to be over anytime soon. I'm pretty much housebound throughout the week because I keep having panic attacks when I go out and basically rely on my mom to take me out, but my Dr has suggested I do something for me, something to focus my mind on, and as anti-atkins as he is, he sees that it worked for me before and that I stuck at it for over a year, so he's happy for me to go for it again.
If you dont know me, then I started Atkins in October 2005, weighing 170 lbs. I got down to 136 in 6 months, and by the time my fiance and I broke up in September of last year, I was down to 134.
Now I'm back up to 151lbs and devastated by it. None of my clothes fit and I feel tempted to label myself a failure, but I know that won't exactly help me right now...
Hope you are all well, and I'll be catching up with most of you soon enough.
