Red face I'm back and ready for induction!

Hi everyone! Wow, I never thought I'd find this forum again. I joined ADBB back in 2004, and lost thirty pounds before the stork paid me a suprise visit thanks to the Atkins WOE.

It's been a long time off the diet (as well as the forum). My little bear is 3 years old now. It shocked me when I managed to log in here and see my old signature. 29 years old and 5 months pregnant. Wow!

Since then, I have let myself go in the hustle and bustle of toddler and teen raising, but I no longer feel good about myself so it's time to reign it in and take control. I need to reacquaint myself with induction, so I'm rereading the book for motivation - and as a reminder.

If anyone else is restarting, I'd love to have you as a "diet partner". I have my first two weeks mapped out when I start induction on December 1st! I'm nervous about starting again, but excited too.

Glad to be back!
~Cory

Hi Cory,

Welcome back! Have a great start tomorrow!

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"

Welcome back! I was also around in 2004 - lost 30 pounds and then got pregnant (on honeymoon in July 2004). I now have two daughters (one born in April 2005 and the other born in October 2006) - they keep me busy

Good luck on induction. x
