  • Round 3

    Hi all, I'm new to the board but not to the Atkins way of eating. I've been successful in the past loosing but have not managed to stay on plan for more than a few months.

    I really want this to be the final re-start, I know it works, I feel good when I'm doing it, and my bloodwork always proves what we all know, when I am doing it right.

    Last time I went off because I had a few cheats that led to some hypoglycemic episodes that were very scary, and I realized then that I had to be into it all the way or I was going to just make myself worse. You can't do 20 carbs a day for 4 weeks and then sneak in 4 homebaked cookies and not expect your blood sugar to freak out the next morning.

    I haven't officially re-started induction yet as I need to get my kitchen properly stocked, but plan to start in the next day or two.

    Just wanted to take a moment to introduce myself.
    1st Goal ~ 199 Onderland -Met 3/29/10
    2nd Goal ~ 174 No longer obese
    3rd Goal ~ 150 In the home stretch
    Final Goal ~ 145 or below (I'll know when I get there) No longer overweight
    (Next pic at 187)






    Current Mini Goals:
    1) 35 pounds lost
    2) 40 pounds lost to move to Rung 5
    3) 45 pounds lost to update 15 pound loss picture series

    Welcome to the board and welcome back to Atkins. Don't worry about falling off the wagon, that's the past. Most people fail, but the key is to keep going. Good luck!

          Hi, Barb

          As you can see from my stats, it has taken me more than one time to get this Atkins thing right. There's a lot of us "multi-timers" here.

          Even though you are not new to Atkins, I'd like to provide a link for you. I put this together to help newbies, but it can also serve as a pep talk for those of us who are back after straying from the Atkins path. It also contains some links to popular places on the board. Here you go: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...-new-read.html

          If you haven't checked out the STAC (Second Time Around Club) forum yet, take a look. Lots of great folks and support there! There is a link to that forum in the post I referred you to earlier.

          Best wishes to you!
