  • Back - after a 5 year hiatus!

    Hi - Im Cathryn!

    Way back in 2001 - I lost 65 pounds thanks to Dr Atkins!

    But then slowly but surely it alll came back.

    But I'm an adament defender of all things Atkins. I know it works, and it works GREAT!

    So, Im here...restarting for the last time.

      Welcome back! I am back too after falling off the Atkins WOL. All 'diets' are almost impossible to maintain. This time I am not thinking about it as a diet but more of a lifestyle change. Good luck to you!

                Hi Cat! Welcome to the board. I'm glad you've found your way back to this way of eating. You lost before, you will do it again!

                  Happy New Year, Cathryn! Happy to have you aboard! Have you gotten rid of what you WON'T need (temptations, for instance)? Got what you WILL need (DANDR 2002!!! revised edition & induction-legal foods)?

                  Have you taken your starting weight and measurements, perhaps a photo, so you can really measure progress you make?
                  Have you been reading up on the "sticky" posts in the forum lists?

                  Got any questions? We're happy to help! Welcome back!!)
