Newbie Here (kinda) And Looking For Atkins Buddy

[READY_2_CHANGE]

Hi all
My name is Lisa and this will be my 3rd time on atkins and hopefully my last. After all 3rd times a charm right?? Well I was here about 2-3 months ago lost 9 lbs and then after a week gave in. Felt ashamed and embarrassed for failing YET AGAIN so its taken me a while to get the courage to say I can and will do this I've come to realize I am emotional eater, a carbaholic and fast food junkie. I hate what Ive done to my body and I know I need to make a change. Im 26 almost 27 and have been overwight since the birth of my middle son 5 years ago. Prior to that I was 140 and happy. So in a nut shell I have spent most of my 20's overwieght, dont want to go into my 30's the same.

With that said, Ill be here often looking for and offering support. Id like a buddy to talk with if anyone is interested I look forward to seeing, reading and sharing success stories !!!

Take Care
Lisa

Welcome back to Atkins Lisa! You made an awesome decision in re-committing. Soon you'll be feeling better about yourself and have tangible proof that you're on your way to that trim figure!

Try to figure out what it is that causes you fall off the wagon. That way, you can take steps to avoid the pitfalls.

Post lots and let us know how you're getting along. We all want you to succeed and are ready to help where we can.
