Hi!

[prettypotato]

I'm new to the board, but not new to the Atkins WOE. This is actually my third time around, and I'm now doing it because it's what I want, not what will work quickly...well and it will work quickly, but that's not my focus. I think that for the first time, I have the mind frame for long-term success, not a diet on a whim.

I wish everyone luck. Actually, I don't wish anyone luck, I wish everyone hard work, dedication, and perseverance, that will bring success.

It's a tough road, and it's not going to be easy, but, here we go!

Oh ... well done you. Giving you a big grin and round of applause. That is such an important realisation to reach. It's the keeping it off that's the thing, isn't it. So tempting to just go back to high carb. I'm in the same boat. Doing it rung for rung now, determined to maintain when I hit goal again. Lotsa luv to you.
