    I guess I'm new again

    I was reading my past posts and I have not been on this board for 5 YEARS! WOW! The good news is that once I left, I DID make to my goal weight and maintained 165 for 4 years. But for some reason, when we got back from our Maui trip last October, I just let myself go! I gained 20-25 pounds over the year and I've been back on Atkins for a week now & I'm down 7 pounds. But for the board, I'll just put today as my start date and my CW and my start weight. Now let me reintroduce myself.

    My name is Jeannine, I am 39, married to a wonderful man for 16 years, 2 kids ~ a boy 11 & a girl 7. I live in Arizona & I stay home to raise our kids. I tried the Atkins site forums but they are too quick with the subtle jabs and insults so I got outta there right quick. So while looking for another Atkins site that actually puts support as priority #1, I rediscovered this one.
    So I am looking forward to losing this weight and keeping it off again!

      Hi Jeannine and welcome back! It is wonderful to see how successful you have been over these past few years (notwithstanding the time since your Maui trip). It is nice for the newbies to see that maintenance is real and possible! Don't forget we have the Second Time Around Club and some great exercise challenges!

      HW 298
      HW (this time) 248
      GOAL ONE 228       (take 2)
      GOAL TWO 213 (personal goal)
      GOAL THREE 199 ONE-DERLAND
      FINAL GOAL 165

       It's not about the results. Its about the process.
