Default 2nd time around

Hello!

So, this is my 2nd time around with atkins, actually ending day 2! This time around I've made sure that I'm set up a little better and have a little better support system, reread the book--- so here goes nothing! Haha, mini-accomplishment today- I said no to b-day cake!

Great start HoldItTogether! Saying no to birthday cake is a major achievement... and you know, it just gets easier as you go along!
Also good news that you re-read the book. Always good to refresh our memories now and again.

Welcome to the board and...Happy losing!

Goal # 2 Have my thighs become less familiar with one another. I am tired of them rubbing up against each other when I walk.
Goal # 3 Be able to see my back without those flabby rolls under my bra line, you know I could store things in those roll creases, a book to read, small toy etc
Goal # 4 Run a 5k in Sept. and continue this WOE.
