I noticed that the second time around losing it was WAYYYY harder and did not come off as fast. Do any of you have this trouble? Oh, I am so scared as this is such a long journey. I really need encouragement......  I love the smilies by the way, really say what I am thinking.....lol Thanks for reading this and wish me luck. I am starting July 1st! | Welcome to  !
Did you climb the Carbohydrate Ladder in OWL and did you move to Pre-Maintenance and Maintenance when you did Atkins before?

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.
Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"
