NEW!... again

[cheertiff710]

Hello, my name is Tiffany and i'm trying atkins...again. I'm 22 and 173lbs and would like to be around 135lbs. I've tried this diet before and it was great. Somehow i fell off of it (could've been my love for chocolate and sweets) and I want to get back on. I always feel so much better inside and out when i'm eating healthy, so why can't i stay on it? I know that i need to do this for myself. I could really use some support in trying to stick with this, i don't have much self control but i'm going to try my hardest. I'll keep you guys updated. THX!

Re: NEW!... again

Oh lets not talk self control..I dont have any either. I was on this plan about a year ago and lost a bunch of weight. I too fell overboard for a good looking piece of Chocolate and it took me a while to let go of it.

I started back up on Atkins on the 2nd and so far so good. I am not sure what took this time around, but I have been doing very well. I hope the same for you.

If you should ever need a shoulder to lean on just let me know. There are other places to post on the boards...check out all possibilities and it will help you to stay strong.

Good Luck to you.

Greetings, Tiffany!

Oh, I REALLY like the post by Shaunawa! She's right - you CAN do better on your second (third, fourth, etc.) time around on Atkins... just check out the stats in my siggie. I'm one of those people. Just make sure that this time is the real deal, and it will be.

She's right about involvement on the board being a big help, too. I didn't have it on my first go-around, buy I've had it since the beginning of my re-start last year, and it has made a big difference. Use it!

Click on this link, if you haven't read this "sticky" yet. http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...-new-read.html I've included links to some of the most popular places on the board. You should check out the STAC forum (Second Time Around Club). Lots of great support there!

Best wishes to you, and remember - get involved with this board. It will become an addiction (a good one!). See ya!
