    Back for another shot

    I did Atkins about 5 years ago and lost weight. I was unable to formally make it a way of life , so of course I gained the weight back and then some. I've tried WW and other types of ways to lose weight but couldn't stay on their meal plans without overdoing on carbs. I've resolved to come back to Atkins...I'm alittle nervous because I was one of those whose cholesterol went up (from a normal baseline). My plan is to progress to owl at some point and not stay on induction for > 3mos.
    This is the only plan that has curbed my appetite, and has shown good results. I'm excited!

    What I know:
    1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
    2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
    3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
    4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

      Glad to have you back on Atkins. Check out the second timers forum and don't forget to re-read the Atkins book. It's easy to forget all those induction rules. I am also a second timer and feel so much better now that I've cut out the carbage. You're going to do great! This board really help keep you motivated too.
