Talking Back on the Wagon :)

Hi,
I am new to this bb and I am hoping it will be something to keep me moving in the RIGHT direction!
I was on PP in 2003- 2004 and went from 213 to 183 pounds and I was thrilled! Then I thought I wanted to eat "normally" and went off the plan and after about a year gained back 20 pounds. So like a YOYO went back on a modified combo of Atkins and PP and got back down to 187, and after some big emotional issues went off the plan again...
Now I am at 198 and I HAVE to get this weight off! My BP is back up and I was diagnosed with celiac disease and I have a high risk of diabetes and heart disease... so enough with all the happiness!
Tomorrow is a new day for a new me. No backsliding - well at least not backsliding completely off plan. So expect me to be asking LOTS of question
s!

Welcome! I also have to avoid gluten- but when I first went GF I ate way too much rice, corn, etc. and didn't lose any weight for over a month.

For your health's sake, if you do any backtracking, I hope you at least stick to gluten free carbs (and boy, are there a lot to choose from! )

What better time to prove to yourself that you can do it and how truly applicable PP is to real life, right? But anyhow...LUCK!!!!!!!

Hey, welcome back! Nancy LC could be a lot of help to you, as she has eliminated gluten from her diet and seems to be doing great.
