    Repeat Offender

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm Joe, 43 years old. I lost about 130 lbs on Atkins afew years ago. It took over two years to accomplish. I went from 291 to low 160's. I felt great and kept the weight off. I strayed for a while and gained 30 back. Under pressure of others I decided to give Weight Watchers a try. I lost the 30, but I also found it more difficult to control my cravings to overeat. So I strayed away from WW. Now I have about 25 lbs to get me back to where I was. So here I am.
    I look forward to meeting you all.

    Welcome back! Great job your first time around.

    Isn't it funny how many people try to talk you into doing weight watchers? They are convinced that this WOE is so unhealthy, and weight watchers works so well. I find it the other way around.

    Good luck! I'm sure you'll be at goal in no time!

      Hello there Roadshow and welcome aboard!
      Many congratulations on your awesome weight loss the first time around. It's great that you've come back to Atkins before your re-gaining any more.
      I hear you on the ease of Atkins as compared to WW. Definitely easier to control cravings low carbing than on many other programmes.

                Morning person? Yeah. I get up at about 3 am. I do my exercises at that time. My family thinks I'm a freak of nature.
