Wink 8 yrs later...I'm back to Atkins

Hey everyone. I'm Jennifer. I just joined a few days ago and I love this place. I am 4wks in today, lost 13lbs. I was on it 8 yrs ago. Weighed in the first day and then swore off the scales. 3 months later, I couldn't resist. I knew I had lost a good bit and so many inches...I had to peak, and it said I lost 35lbs. Then after that something happened,I stopped. Gained it back and haven't had enough willpower until now. (yes I did try in between many many times) . I am so determined this time. I mean, I am at 4wks, thats very HUGE for me. But I do get down because the lbs aren't coming off fast but as of today, I'm not weighing in until this time next month. And after reading about inches, I'm going to measure everywhere tonight. I had only did my waist when I started.
I hope to get to chat with alot of you, and ahead of time thanks in the future for all of your help and incouragement!!!! I need all the I can get ..

Hi Jennifer,

We have about the same amount of weight to loose and we are very close in the amount of time on this WOL. I find that quite exciting as I've been looking for someone who is about the same as me...-smile-

Are you in any of the challenges? Are you thinking of moving to OWL soon?
WE CAN DO THIS!!!

Big hugs

Oops! Almost forgot, no I'm staying on extended induction for awhile. Everyone will die when I say this, but I am not into veggies. I never have and never will eat any except green beans. Sorry guys....and when we do eat fruit...I'm allergic to it all. So I will have to do things different somehow....

Hmmm how long will it take us? I like to think One Day at a Time. I really have no idea. Did you have an idea on how long? I did Atkins many many years ago...1978 and lost what I needed to lose before I joined the military. I've joined a couple of challenges...the six week one and the abs. They are great motivators to get going. You should look through them.
