Default Hi Everyone, I'm Pamela

and certainly not new to Atkins or this wonderful forum. I have been away for a while mainly due to many personal reason. I would go into it all but I think it's better to leave the past in the past! Today is a new day and this is my 3rd day back on Induction. Things are going pretty well so far.

I know that Atkins works because I had lost over 60 pounds on the program. But like I said many things happened and I lost sight of my low carb living. I have gained so much weight and now it's time to take control. My blood pressure has gotten high and now I am taking 2 meds 2 times a day! Plus I feel terrible and know that by eating like I have over the past year is only harming me and possibily killing me.

So I'm back! Any help or suggestions would certainly be appreciated! I hope everyone is doing great!

Thanks so much everyone!!!!!!

Pamela

Welcome back Pamela! Glad you decided to re-commit! I'm sure you'll soon be feeling fitter and more energised, not to mention slimmer!

Have you checked out the Second Time Around Club (STAC)? Lots of support and inspiration there from those who've lost their way temporarily and then found it again.

Keep us posted on how you get along!

Hi Pamela!

Sorry to hear you've had personal problems, but good for you for getting back to it.

I would say it is definately worth getting involved in an exercise challenge on this board to get your endorphins going and really get into the weight loss

See you around the board
