  • Second time around

    My husband and myself first did Atkins in 2001 with great success. We have started again with hopes of not going back to the bad eating habits as we did before. Before, there weren't many sites that I found that offered the support as what I have found here.

    We often found ourselves bored with the same foods we were eating. This time around, since I have found this forum, I hope to keep inspired with new recipes and ideas that others have to offer.

    Welcome to the board Dreamcatcher!

    Yes, there is lots of support here as well as lots of delicious low carb recipes so you don't get bored. I'm sure you and your dh will do fine.

    Check out the different forums, read some recipes, drink your water and maybe join a challenge or two. It's the challenges that keep me going!

      Many of us "second" time around folks here. It's a learning curve.

        Hi DC! Welcome to ADBB and congrats on taking the first step to a healthier you! I know that becoming bored with food choices is one of the main reasons I allowed myself to stray, but after reading lots of post and with the encouragement of many wonderful people here, I have decided that after two weeks of a clean induction I will move up to Ongoing Weight Loss (OWL). You don't STOP losing when you move up to OWL, actually many people find that it bumps their weight loss up if they have been losing slowly or are in a stall. Not to mention the benefits of having more food choices!
        There are TONS of yummy recipes posted on this forum and you can always check out Lindas Low Carb where there are TONS more. Also, you should swing by the Second Time Around Club forum. There are alot of fantastic people over there and they do a daily roll call, which I find helps to keep me accountable and on plan!
        Good Luck on your journey and I hope to see you around!

          I didn't realize there was a "second time around club" when I first posted and put that title in. I will have to check that forum that. Thanks!
