Red face Back after 3 years!

wow, it took me all this time to come back, lots has happened, marriage, baby, depression, you name it..
but my wieght was always steady, oops not now, hit 50 last month and I got on teh scale over this last weekend and 15lbs has slipped back on..
part me being a sugar piggey and part me starting menopuase..
so here I am all 150lbs of me, I should weight 135 .I know it doenst seem like much but in a few more months it will be 20 then 25. so oyu all know the deal..

I feel out of control and a big phat pig.. and I know all that I NEED to do and all that I need to stay away from..
So I decided I WANT to be in control of the only thing I can..
WHAT GOES IN MY MOUTH! lol...

I can relate. It's so important to tackle those extra pounds before they get away from you. I was doing Atkins back in '03 and was doing great, I was down to 130, 5 lbs from my target weight and I met my husband. Nothing like being in love to screw up the best laid plans. I have gained 30 lbs since then, the heaviest I have ever been. I just watched the pounds creep on and tried half-heartedly to keep them off, but being a foodie and a wine lover with 4 young kids to take care of it has been an uphill battle. So here I am back again but I am really ready this time. I truly understand that my weight will come off slow and that the only way I will succeed is to be patient. And so far it is paying off.
So good luck to you, and remember the less you need to lose the longer it takes to come off. And age also messes with us. Slow and steady wins the game. Keep us posted on your progress.

Welcome back! Kudos to you for hopping back on the wagon to re-gain your target weight. I'm sure it won't take you long.

Happy losing!
