Good day to everyone out there! Well, or evening if that's when you happen to read this. 
My name's Alanna, and I'm from Ontario (Canada). I've been reading these forums for some time now, and I wanted to finally join in.
I started Atkins on my 28th birthday (Which was December 10th, of 2009). Sheila of Sugar Free Sheila had been a great help to me thus far (and she's as sweet as the sugar she's free of ;P). However, unfortunately I've had some hiccups, and due to some emotional stress I went off of this WOE this last week. However, I'm returning! I refuse to just hang up the gloves.
I've realized, as with most things in my own life, to be successful, I need a game plan. I usually plan out most things within my life (I'm one of those weirdos that love to plan), and I thought - well, why am I not doing it with some of the most important things in my life (if not THE most important things) - diet and exercise? So! In order to correct this, I will figure out a plan of attack! I am going to be joining up with a lot of these challenges, as I believe they will keep me motivated to work out and such.
One thing I have been neglectful on is support. Considering for me to succeed in most things, I usually need a little bit of a cheering squad sometimes. It helps me stay motivated, even when these emotional times happen (and I get shaken enough to want to turn to food - baaad).
Anyhow, it's a pleasure to meet you all, and I look forward to the friendships, advice, and chatting!
