I am coming back to the Atkins life after a weight gain and some depression over that....I joined a long time back and never did post..This time around I am asking for help and maybe I will be able to stick to this way of life and get healthy and lose the weight...
I lost 50 #s and gained back almost 25........its creeping back..I feel like Oprah that 200 mark is so close...10 last year and another 10 this past 6 months...I need to get back on track....

Hi, Kerri

Yeah... the weight can come back really easily, can't it?

No fear, though... you've come back to ADBB!

Have you checked out the STAC forum yet? (Second Time Around Club). Here is the link, in case you haven't: Second Time Around Club - Atkins Diet There's lots of wonderful folks there, who have "been there, and done that". It is a great place for support, motivation, and accountability.

You CAN do this! Best of luck to you.

You are very welcome.

You can do it! Check out the stats in my siggie... it took me more than one time to get this right, too.

Just follow the plan to the letter, stick close to the board, and post often.

Hey Kerri! I saw that you posted in the morning roll call in the STAC forum. Good girl!! Nice to have ya! I agree being anywhere near the big 2-0-0 is frightening. Let's climb down together! Since you're in induction, you should race right past me pretty quickly!! You'll feel great by next weekend. I'm glad you decided to come back! Again, welcome to !!

Welcome back, Kerri!

I am so glad you are posting this time. It makes a big difference when you have friends to cheer you on in the good times, and encourage you in the bad times.

Welcome back Kerri.
It's totally unfair, innit? How it takes so little time/effort to put weight on, and it's a struggle to get it back off. But you know what they say! Things that are worth having are worth fighting for.

Best of luck to ya! I'm sure you can reach your goal.
