  • Back Again for the last time!

    Hello All,

    This isn't my first time on the board, this is actually my fourth time here. I have stopped and started the dieted, this time is going to be different, I really don't like what I see, I have thought about surgery and the lap band and to my surprise my insurance won't cover it. To me this was a sign from God saying that I had to try and win this battleon my own, with him by my side. That there is something deep with in me that is going to get back to working out and enjoy doing it.

    I have nothing to loss but the weight and a lot to gain, loving me!

    So, if you are looking for a buddy that is going for the gold, let's motivate each other and keep to the plan. I look forward to hearing from you all.

    Welcome back GG, glad you remembered us. We can do this and a lot safer than having the surgery. This WOE makes you healthy, while the surgery might have other drastic results.
    So, you remember the drill, get the tape measure out, start up a journal, join Century Club and Second Time Around Club, dust off the fitday account and the water bottle and we'll watch the pounds melt away.
    I think there is an new Exercise Challenge going on also.

      Hi! Glad you chose this over surgery - you'd have to learn to eat right, the right amount and exercise anyways - might as well do it without any side effects or risks of infection. Welcome!!!!!

        GoldenGirl!!! How can you do that to me, staying away and giving me gray hairs and droopy armpits?

        Wait... ok. Nevermind on the armpits.

        I'm glad you are back!!! I was going to have weight loss surgery. Atkins was my last resort and now I'm 112 pounds lighter! I know you can do this! you can! I believe in you!

            Welcome back. Sounds like you have the determination that it takes to Make it Happen. I also considered getting surgery, but thank goodness Atkins worked and I didn't have to go that route. This is definitely the place to be for motivation and support. You will meet people who are just as dedicated as you to getting healthy and taking off the weight. Join some of the challenges, post and get to know people for inspiration and information that will help you. Keep us posted on your success!! You are important. We need your support and inspiration and want to give you some as well. Together we can all make it happen and reach our goals.

            Dedication gives wings to our dreams and keeps them in flight! In One Word...COMMITTMENT.

                I honestly have to say that there is so much love and support here! I can recall a lot of the faces and names on the board from before and to see you all and all the progress that's been made is awesome. I can't wait! This is the first official day on Atkins and so far so good! One thing I have learned is I have to plan in advance or I will sabotage myself. Today, I'm going to have a chef salad for lunch and I'm already on 64oz or water and it seems like I can't get enough of it.

                  Dear Golden Girl,

                  I am so glad too that you're back on Atkins - I am not a medical expert, but feel that the surgery is too radical and risky... you have inspired me even further, and I'm already bouncin' off the walls with enthusiasm!! You are going to lose quickly and will keep going until goal. Just keep asking Him for the strength, and it will be yours. He is so amazing to carry us. Have a great day. Go to the store for $ale turkey! Walk just a little today, and smile! Thanks for sharing your current story. Take care!
