    Hello! Everyone I'm New here,but not too Atkins

    Hello,

    My name is Brandy, I am 29 and from Dallas,TX. I am embarking on another low carb endeavor. I lost 35lbs in March , on Atkins and gained it all back when I became to comfortable with the loss. I thought that I could eat the same ol' junk. Now, I know what is good and what is bad for my body. I know this plan works, I just need to stick with it and I believe I can get the support I need here at ADBB. I love the challenges and the motivation everyone gives to one another.

      Welcome
      Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
      he said, 'Don't count calories.'

      Male 6 ft 3in 60 years old. Married 28 years.
      Began Atkins March 04 at 260lb, reduced to 203lb by April 07 and maintained.

      Atkins makes exercise mandatory - I took up cycling - see last pics at 203lb.

              Hi there fellow 29 year old!
              It's amazing to me the stories of people who have lost weight on Atkins and then gone back to High carb eating and gained it all back!
              But let me say this - I believe you only do that once. I think it takes a rebound like that to teach you a valuable lesson.
              I lost 30 kilos on Weight Watchers. Of Course I couldn't sustain that, so I re-gained, and gained some more! That's when I learnt the message - this way of eating is a way of life.

              It's easy to say WOL (Way of life) but it's a very hard lesson when learn't from experience!

              Good Luck!

                Welcome to ADBB! Since you have already tasted the success of Atkins and generally know the rules, let me just welcome you in the door and hope you find the key to doing it long term. I know this place certainly helped me find the support I needed to stick around and on the WOE, and I only hope it does the same for you. Glad to have you here!

                  Hi bdnlp and welcome to and back to Atkins!!

                  I think that is common, once the weight is lost people move back to their old ways, and the old, bad habits come roaring back! But lesson learned, right?
