Sadly, this is not my first time as a 'newbie'. It's my first day back on Atkins after a LONG absence. I've gained back all but 2lbs of the 30lbs that I had originally lost.

After trying on some clothes that I had bought only 4 months ago and realizing that NONE of them fit me now, I am starting from scratch and am back on Induction as of today.

I was never a big poster before, but I am really struggling and hoping to find advice and support (my family is totally anti-Atkins). If there's anyone out there in a similar situation and looking for a buddy, let me know.

Here's to all those starting again!

Welcome back to the forum! I went away for a long time too and gained back 40 of the 43 pounds I had lost. Really sucks eh?? Well the important thing is to get back and just get going :). There is a lot of support here especially when we are struggling. At least we didn't gain back ALL of it LOLOL - we need to keep a sense of humor :).

Hi Hippy Girl,
I have only been on the diet a week, so it will be fun to make a new friend who is going through the same thing :)
Sorry your family is not supportive of the Atkins. It is hard when you can't moan or complain to your spouse :) But hey.. You can do that with us eh? It worked before, it will work again!
