KH135 is on a distinguished road
Default Another Newby!

Hi, everyone. Well, tomorrow is the first day of Spring, so I decided that would be a good time to get back on the Atkins wagon and turn some things around. I will be 42 at the end of the month, and am the mother of three grown teens. (At least, that's what they think.) My husband and I live in the Olympia, Washington area. I have been off and on Atkins many times in the past, always seen success, and always come up with some excuse to go off of it. Usually it was because I had it 'up to here' with counting carbs and just threw in the towel. Right now I only have about 20 pounds to lose to be at goal, so I figure by the first day of summer I should be pretty close to that. Wish me luck, and I look forward to getting to know some of you. Some of the successes I have seen on this board are phenomenal! Very inspiring. Thanks all!

Welcome KH135! Welcome to the spotlight! Great to have you with us. Why don't you hop on over the the Second Time Around Club and hang out with us there since you're not a stranger to this way of eating! We'd love to have you.

Don't throw in the towel, maybe it was boredom in what you were eating, or temptation or whatever, we can all talk about it and try some suggestions maybe!

Anyway it is great to meet you, we look forward to hearing about your success!

Hi KH! Welcome to the board. So, you're familiar with eating the great Atkins way, good for you! This board will offer you tremendous amounts of support and friendship, so post often.

There's a women's forum on this board as well, which is a nice place to visit. You can PM richt or lauren to get access to it!

Hello there KH135! Welcome to ADBB... we're happy you decided to join us.

Seems you've had success with Atkins in the past, and I'm sure that'll be repeated this time. As Scooter says, you might like to hop into the Second Time Around Forum where everyone has lost their way at least once, but then on recommitting, many have gone on to reach goal. You can too!

Ask any questions you might have. We're here for ya!
