Exclamation Third time's a charm!!!

Helloooo atkineers!!!!!

This is actually my 3rd time starting atkins.

My first time was back in 2003... I made it about 3 weeks (only lost 8 pounds) and quit. Then I attempted to try again, lasted about 3 days and didn't lose anything. lol.

Now... here we go... The third time, i'm on day 4, and i'm doing better than either of the previous times!!!

I got a little of that induction flu yesterday and it almost dissuaded me from continuing and then I looked through all of your beautiful before and after pics and kept going because of the motivation you all inspired in me!!!!

I'm 27, I weigh about 188 pounds or so... I think. and my goal is 145!!!

My mini goals are:

1.5 litres of water a day... but I tend to get to 3 litres, YAY ME!
10 pounds by Valentine's day (I haven't seen below 180 in years)
exercise 3 times a week (excluding Curves.. eg. crunches, push ups)
attend Curves twice a week (i'm not a big fan of the people there)

hmmm... any other goals anyone can recommend!!!!

I didn't want to post on this board until I was at least half way through the week!!! and here I am... a little over half.

The weekend will be the most challenging for me though!!
