Back for round 2 after 3 years

[Fat Cat Mama]

Hi y'all! I am Denise, a homeschooling stay at home mom to 3 teenagers in Atlanta. I enjoy gardening, sewing, and reading. I am the volunteer coordinator and orphan baby keeper for a local cat shelter. I was on the Atkins WOL 4 years ago and lost 70 lbs. My grandmother died and I have gained back 50 in the last 3 years. I am back into a 16 and refuse to get back to a 20 ( I got down to a 10 ). I have fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, arthritis, and irritable bowel. When I am eating properly, I don't hurt much at all. This is my second day and I am doing well so far but oh what I wouldn't give for some ice cream!! I will make it through though, I can do this. I can't wait to get to know all of you.

Denise - Wellcome to the ADBB! My mother has fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue, she really has a tough time. I should get her to jump on the atkins. LOL Good Luck and Keep your eye on the prize. You will succeed again as long as you have you mind made up.
