Default Hello from Sonya

Hi,

I am new to this forum, trying to psyche myself out so I can stat Atkins again. I started back in 1997,lost 45 pounds, but gained it back over the course of three years. Wish me luck, I believe in this diet and I am ready to do it once again.

Hello. Welcome. Glad you have joined us.

Have you made a plan to succeed? Write out the things that caused you to regain the weight and make solutions to overcome those obstacles when and if you face them again. Having a plan made out is the best way I've found to stay focused. The ADBB is filled with lots of people to share your journey and help you get to goal. Best wishes and keep us posted on your progress.

Hello Sonya and welcome to ADBB! This is a great place for support and good advice. I'm sure you'll fit in well here.

Try to remember what it was that caused you to fall off the wagon last time, so you are better prepared this time around. Why not take a peek into the Second Time Around forum where there are plenty of people who've 'come back' to Atkins a second time or more... and who will be able to share their solutions.

Feel free to ask any questions you have about this WOE. We're all rooting for you.

Happy low carbing!

Hi Sonya! Welcome back! As you already know, this WOE works! There probably have been many changes since you last ate this way in 1997. I would highly recommend picking up the 2002 DANDR edition, so that you can do this properly from the start! You did it before, you CAN do it again! Post often around here!
