    Starting Over

    Hi,

    My name is Dayna. I did Atkins successfully about three years ago. It worked out great. I lost 40 lbs in about three months. Since then, I have gotten married, and become "comfortable", this meaning, I have gained back about 25 lbs. I got to college full time, work full time, student teach, and have a four year old son that I have to take care of. I just quit smoking yesterday and figured that now is a better time than ever to start dieting again. I have tried several diets, but this one has worked the best for me. I have tried several times in the past year to start dieting again, but can't seem to get motivated. Hopefully this time will work. I want to lose the 25 lbs I've gained back. Wish me luck!!!

          Hello there Dayna and welcome back to Atkins and the ADBB! Really glad that you've decided to take control of your weight again and chosen this way of eating. Seems you already know it works!
          If you can pin point why you strayed last time, it could help you avoid similar pitfalls. Sounds like you lead a busy life... even so, you'll find it a wonderful help if you find time for a little exercise (if you don't already do this).

          We're all rooting for your success here and hope to read about just that, soonest!
          Happy losing! Oh.... and congrats on quitting smoking!
