Question Introducing myself

Today is my first day of induction. Ive done atkins before but quit before induction ended because i thought i could finish it on my own. So this time im making an effort to do it from start to finish. My goal is to lose 35 lbs. I recently got a 10 day punch card from my neighborhood gym (which is walking distance so i have no excuse) Im not overweight at all but I still want to get back to where i was almost 2 years ago. I think halloween 2007 i was 110 and i decided that i would eat candy (which i NEVER did so i dont know why i even started) after that, I couldnt stop and my blood sugar got really bad and i gained 50 pounds in about 5 months, so i guess that shows how easy just one little candy binge can turn into a huge catastrophe. So now, here i am again, hoping i can get off my butt and finally lose this for good.

There is no "finish"... if you really "do" Atkins, then you never go off it.

Do you have a copy of Dr. Atkins' New Diet Revolution (2002)?

I believe that the best way to overcome temptation is not with willpower, which is so often in short supply, but with our brain power, a potentially unlimited resource.

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 to ADBB. This is a lifestyle choice not a temporary detour--at least not if you want the weight loss to stick. Wishing you success this time around.
