Hey, this is the point where you come back to this board and look at all the pics of the people that started when you did the last time and you think; that could've been me. I hate, hate, hate, that I didn't stick to this the last time! I feel awlful, my blood pressure is back up, I'm have trouble with fibromaylgia again, it had actually gone into remission sort of. I am starting this way of life back tomorrow !!! One more time!! Wish me luck!!! I am excited!

Wow that is exactly what happened to me!!! That made me so motivated. I had dropped out on diet when a friend did not. She went down 30 lbs. and I felt horrible!

anyhow... welcome back... this time you will and can stick to it!

best of luck/wishes

Welcome back Brenda! It's great that you decided to re-commit to Atkins again. I know that very soon your BP and fibromyalgia issues will be vastly imprved again and you'll be feeling healthier and slimmer.

Keep us posted!

I know exactly how you feel! I started back in March and I would be close to goal now had I stuck with it but NOOO, I let little cheats get me and didn't put this adventure (and me) first. I have fibro too and my body is trying to rebel against my exercise (I am mostly swimming) but I just hold up a hand and say "Not listening right now" to the pain. I am lucky though, I was given something to help me sleep and it has made all the difference in the world.
