Hi, whereami

Welcome back to the ADBB family.

This is definitely the beginning of a new you! As you can see from my stats, I didn't reach goal on my first time around. But with the support of this board, I have made this time better than ever. You will to! As long as you commit to this time being the real deal, it will be.

I'm very proud of you for getting through these first few days. They are the hardest... the longer you can stay clean, the easier it will be to stay that way.

Have you been in the STAC forum? That's the Second Time Around Club, and it's for people like us who have strayed from plan and found our way back. There's a great bunch of people in there who are in the same shoes, and can offer wonderful support. If you haven't yet, be sure to make an appearance in the daily roll call in the morning. Here's the link, in case you need it. In fact, I'll go ahead and post a few links in case you need a refresher about what's available on the board. Good luck!

Warm welcome back Whereami! It's awesome that you decided to re-commit to Atkins.
Pretty soon you'll be feeling good about yourself again and that's worth far more than a few carby "treats" (so called). You'll probably remember... it gets easier and easier as you go along.

Post lots and keep us updated. We're with you!
