I'm new!

[aprilf]

I have tried Atkins before and did it somewhat successfully. Then I gave in to the kiss of death by eating carbs just once. That just-one-taste turned into an OMG I am 166 pounds! I now weight as much as I did when I was pregnant with my son. He is now 3 1/2 years old.
What has kept me from doing Atkins again has been the fact that I drink alcohol on a regular basis. Well, I have now quit drinking all together (YAY!) and am ready and motivated to start Atkins again.
I was searching on the internet and ran into this site and figured that any help and any support would be great.
So here I am....JUST starting and I look foward to the life style changes that I have decided to make.
I know I can do it!

Welcome back to the plan. I am a newbie myself. I also gave up alcohol. I used to have a glass of wine every night and now I drink a cup of sleepy time tea. It works!. I sleep like a baby and I dont miss the wine anymore. I look forward to hearing about your progress!
