  • Trying this again...

    I am a 22-year-old college student trying to lose 160 lbs. I previously attemtped Atkins in 2005 for about 3 months, and I was pleased with the results.
    But then I reverted back to my old habits.
    I began Atkins again in October 2007 because I realized that I wasn't happy with myself at 330 lbs.
    Since then (through some struggles over the holiday season) I have lost about 30 lbs. And joining this forum is my latest step in trying to do it the right way this time around.

    Happy to be here!

    Welcome, Sunni. You're going to love all the support you'll get here. All the ideas and suggestions will get help keep you pointed in the right direction. Just be diligent about your health. You deserve to feel good about yourself. Hi-five for getting back on the plan. I know the dorm food can be kinda limiting. Do you have access to a fridge & or microwave 24/7? Keeping fresh eggs, meats, cheese, veggies on hand in a dorm-room can be a bit of a challenge. If you have access to these things, there a LOTS of easy recipes that you can do in the microwave. You might go to the Forums dealing with food & recipes, for more detailed answers. Good luck.

      Thanks for the warm welcome! Yeah, I've already done a post about that in the Food & Recipes section already, but I will definitely look at the rest of the posts for more ideas.
