  • Hello Everyone

    I am coming to you from the sunny state of Florida. I don't know how much I weigh because I cannot find a scale in stores that goes up high enough.
    BUT I have been on induction for about a week and I feel great! I am here for the long haul.

    I have about 175 pounds to lose, but one pound at a time.

    Welcome! Keep us posted on how those clothes are just getting looser and looser!

    Seriously, have someone help you take some measurements so that you can selebrate your accomplishment later on!

      I love your name LovingMeAgain...you should be proud of yourself for that alone! Welcome and know that you're not alone. I too am too big for the scales, and in a way it's a good thing that I don't have numbers to focus on. Just focusing on what I'm doing, making myself feel better, and giving myself a better chance at life, is important enough for me. We're on this journey together, so good luck!

        Thank you guys so much. I just got a computer at home, so you will be seeing more of me. LOL at my screen name, I just couldn't think of anything else. And that is the reason that I am embarking on this journey, because I have begun to once again love myself. Looking at the photos and reading the posts, you guys are such an inspiration for me.

            Welcome! I'm so proud of you for starting this journey, your attitude is terrific!

            I second the recommendation to get your beginning measurements. You'll be AMAZED how fast those inches will melt off of you, I know I was!
            Female / Currently on Extended Induction (again), begun 6/2/08.

            I did Extended Induction from 1/3 to 5/9 (2006) and lost 55 pounds, so I know I can do it again!

            The reason I quit...

                Hey loving me! I'm so glad you found your way back to the board! You can do this, post often so we can see how you're doing. Do you have the book to refer to to refresh your atkins-ing skills?

                  Yes I do, as a matter of fact, I have both the DANDR and the essentials. Just coming through a difficult personal period and fell of the wagon, but I am ready to melt again....I am not weighing myself again until October 31st hopefully I won't be too far off the weight that I was when I last posted...I REALLY DO NOT want to change my ticker or push it back.
