  • Introduction- Need motivation!

    Hello All,
    I have been reading through the forum for a few weeks now but haven't posted anything so far. I am back on Atkins after being out of this WOE for about a year. I lost about 25 pounds a little over 3 years ago and followed Atkins until I got pregnant last year. I still have about 10-15 pounds that I can't seem to shed so I thought I would try this again. It is so much harder the second time around. I went on Induction about 3 weeks ago and did a clean induction for 2 weeks then I slipped and gained back 5 pounds of the 10 that I had lost. I have 4 kids, work full time and finding the time to exercise is my toughest problem that I face now. I am finally going to join some of the challenges on this board to help motivate me to exercise!
    1st time- 2/1/03 - 30 pounds lost
    Kept off for over 2 years following Atkins WOE and took a break when I got pregnant with 4th child- she was born 10/05
    2nd time- 5/2006 - 20 pounds to lose - 10 down so far

    Welcome aboard, TBurns!!! Chasing 4 kids around HAS to count as exercise! Maybe you could wear a pedometer and see how far you really are walking every day. You might be surprised!!

    The exercise challenges are great. It is really nice to be accountable to a group of people.

    Good luck!
