Hi everyone,
Today is the beginning of a new life for me. I did Atkins about 4 years ago and lost about 30lbs. I was happy and felt really good about myself then. I also had a new wardrobe. Now I have put back on the weight plus some. I know that part of the weight is also because of beign pregnant but now 10 months later, and I need to take it off. This morning I checked and I am now 171lbs and for my5' frame this is a lot of weight. So I am committing myself to this diet like I have never done before. I have read numerous success stories and I hope that some day I will also be a success story. Also I plan to start my journal today so I hope to keep sharing with you all. Thanks for being here.

Hi Lisa -

Welcome Aboard! I share your pain of reputting on the weight ... I also did atkins , then wandered away from the low carb lifestyle .. and found my way back after I put on WAY too much weight ( 50 lbs - ick). I just restarted low carb last week - and looks like there are others on the forum who have also recently "re-started" - so there are a bunch of us who know what we need to do, just need some help staying on track.

Congrats on making the decision to get healthy again :) And Congrats on the new baby!!

See you around the forum...
