Same Title Different Person - reintroduction

[Slingnmom]

Well I was a member back in 2005 and I did real well. I lost a good 45 lbs or more. I can't remember. But then I got pregnant and fell off the wagon. Since my last login though I've had 2 more kids, LOL

But I am back and looking to lose all that baby weight and then some.

My name is Stephanie and I am 32, married, and a SAHM of currently 7 kids. We would like to have more, at least 1 more if not 3 more, but until that happens I will be trying to get healthier.

Um, I started Monday when I couldn't stand what the scale was telling me. Since then (yeah only 2 days ago) I've lost 5 pounds. Monday was the worst in that I had the most cravings and even sugar withdrawl I think because my headaches were horrid, but I was able to lose 4 lbs! Tuesday was better, no headaches thankfully, but I did succumb to some temptations still I was able to lose 1 lb for the day. I think my temptations will lessen as I go along and I believe today will be a great day.

I always carry a 1gal jug of water around with me too.

So that's all I can think of for now.

Well howdy and welcome back! Congrats on the 5lbs! I think the first few days of induction are always the hardest...but it's a leap of faith. Keep up the super work! Hope to see you around often.

Greetings, Stephanie

Welcome back to the ADBB.

Oh my! Seven children... my hat is off to you. I think I would be insane.

It's great that you have made the decision to come back to Atkins. I am a second-timer, too. Be assured, that this time around on Atkins, can be your best, yet. In fact, I'd like to remind you that we have a special forum for those of us who have strayed from plan, and are ready to re-commit. It is called STAC (Second Time Around Club), and is a great place for support. There is a daily roll call there, and is great for accountability.

Here are a few links to refresh your navigation skills around the board. The first one is to a website that a lot of us use for recipes, and the others are for forums here on the board. Always a good idea to brush up on the specifics of this WOE, join a challenge, or start a journal. Enjoy!

Welcome back! I was gonna say if not logging in caused you to have babies, you better stay logged in--until I saw the pictures of your beautiful babies! I love the kiddies! They would all have me wrapped around their pinkie fingers with those sweet little faces! You get yourself healthy so you can keep up with them!

I am the youngest of 11 children and 10 of us are still living. It's a great way to grow up.

Sunny!
