Re: In need of support
Welcome Motherly! I'll wish you luck, but actually you won't need it. All you have to do is follow the plan to a "T" and the losses will look after themselves!
Happy losing!Before and after:

Re: In need of support
Hello and welcome, sounds like you got a plan, I am also getting started, and have been for over a month, I have lost 2 lb, but it so hard me to stick to anything, but I am going to take each day as a new beginning and start again from there. I have learned that I can start my day over as many times as I want to and I do just that. I try not to be hard on myself, I already know that doesn't work, so I try to be kind to myself and give me another try because the reasons are plenty. You have a good day and don't give up and if you do get down, just say " OK, I am down, but I am not going to lose site and I will Start from here. That is the way things are finished. You Go Girl, LindaHello Everyone, not sure where I have surfaced but at least I am somewhere. When I first joined I wasn't sure of what to put but now I hope I know a little more
. I want to be in the Christmas Chanlenge and hope to meet my goal head on
I want to lose 30lb total and have lost a few but I am strugling with the same 3 back and forth, going to hange it
. I want to ware a size 12 and be able to go shopping and have more fun by finding things that do look good on me. Thanks to everyone who has helped me. LindaComment

Re: Thanks4support
You will never be alone at this board Motherly. I hope you come back often so you can gain the support and motivation you need to nip this weight thing in the bud once and for all. I sound like Barney Fife, sorry.
We were all emotional eaters at one time or another so don't be upset over that. You should know by now we are all in this together and we want everyone to be a success here at ADBB, Good luck to you dear.Male

Re: Thanks4support
I never realized I was such a "carburetor" until I started Atkins! And, being the only person in my house that (a) has a weight issue and (b) has to monitor their diet...sometimes it really stinks. Especially because I love to cook and I still cook all the yummies for everyone. I just take long, slow, deep sniffs before I hand them over!!
You're not alone - we all walk in the same shoes no matter what stage of the journey we're in!
