I'm a returning low carber that's spent several days lurking the TDC's best of stickies. Much better conversation than the rest of the board. At a beginning weight of 259, I believe I meet the criteria to join the group!
My last successful stint was in 2002-2004. I've managed to regain it all following the "I'll start this weekend so eat like a pig now" way of life for several years.
I'm now at the end of my first month back on plan with no cheats and feeling very good about myself. I've convinced myself that it's the first cheat that will seal my doom. Atkins is the only plan I've used that actually works for me and I'm a believer in the health benefits.
I look forward to chatting soon!
