Hello everyone 
I just started induction on 7/22/08. I had done Atkins a few years back and was successful, so I am giving it another go around
I've gained 25 pounds since I was last eating Atkins WOE. Though, about 20 of those pounds happened in the last few months. My weight was creeping up and I upped my activity, started going to the gym a couple extra days a week, cut back my calories and I still continued to gain, plus I was so hungry all the time to boot. I started to panic because I felt my weight was starting to get out of my control, I've always been able to shed when I needed to with no problems. Nothing was working and I was so frustrated.
I've lost 8 pounds thus far with Atkins, and this is INSANE progress relative to how hard I was busting my butt for a few months on a low fat diet, only to gain 20 pounds. Now only 12 more to go.
I've already found so many helpful tips and awesome recipes on here! I wish I had found this years ago and I'd probably never would have strayed XD
Keep it up, so glad to be here!
