    1 more time!!

    Hey, this is the point where you come back to this board and look at all the pics of the people that started when you did the last time and you think; that could've been me. I hate, hate, hate, that I didn't stick to this the last time! I feel awlful, my blood pressure is back up, I'm have trouble with fibromaylgia again, it had actually gone into remission sort of. I am starting this way of life back tomorrow !!! One more time!! Wish me luck!!! I am excited!

          Wow that is exactly what happened to me!!! That made me so motivated. I had dropped out on diet when a friend did not. She went down 30 lbs. and I felt horrible!

          anyhow... welcome back... this time you will and can stick to it!

          best of luck/wishes

              Welcome back Brenda, you can do this.
              40 year old male 6' 3"

              What I know:
              1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
              2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
              3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
              4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

                  I know exactly how you feel! I started back in March and I would be close to goal now had I stuck with it but NOOO, I let little cheats get me and didn't put this adventure (and me) first. I have fibro too and my body is trying to rebel against my exercise (I am mostly swimming) but I just hold up a hand and say "Not listening right now" to the pain. I am lucky though, I was given something to help me sleep and it has made all the difference in the world.
