Hi
My name is Sarah, I have been doing Atkins/low carb for 4 weeks now. I did do Atkins about 3 years ago and lost 42 lb, but have since but it all back on and some more, about 20 lb more.

Re: Hello

Hi Sarah!I am new here as well, but am just starting induction. I did the same as you, lost weight, fell off the wagon and gained it all back plus some.
Good luck looks like your already well on you way!

Re: Hello

Hi Sarah! Welcome back to atkins and to this board! You've done it before, surely you can do it again!

Re: Hello

Thank you for all the replies, tomorrow is weighing day, so I'm hoping to have lost more, dont think it will be a lot (have cheated and weighed myself mid week) maybe a pound or two, but every little helps. Last time I remember that I would stay the same for a couple of weeks, then woosh, then stay the same. Does this happen to anyone else?

Hello there and welcome back to Atkins! It worked for you before and it'll work for you again, I'm sure.
Why not check out the Second Time Around Club? It's a wonderful place for support and inspiration from many who've lost the Atkins way before, and then gone on to find it again... many then reaching goal happily!

Keep us posted!
