Hello!
My name is Laura. This is my 2nd time around on Atkins.... I lost about 30 lbs about 5 years ago and it slowly crept back on. I am a very emotional and boredom eater, I always eat even though I know I am not hungry! I re-started Atkins in February of this year. I did Medidfast for a month before that... it was my New Years resolution to lose weight and begin a healthy life. Medifast was WAY too expensive and too strict! Low carb is by far the best thing for me! I started at 199 lbs and am now at 152. My goal is 135. My constant setback, however, is the fact that I like a bit of a drink in the evening. I am stressed out at work all day and it is my crutch. I was good all year up until now.... the last few weeks I have had some nips of either brandy or vodka mixed with seltzer... and my weight loss has stopped. Does anyone have tips for stopping? I am having a real will-power problem at this moment! I absolutely love all of the choices on Atkins.... I am enjoying reading so many posts and getting so many great ideas!
