Hello!

[Girlee]

Hi, everyone! I am new to this forum, but not this diet. I did Atkins when I was 17, and had some amazing success, but didn't stick with it and gained the weight back. I went on a low fat diet when I was 21 and lost a lot of weight, kept it off for several years, and then gained it all back. Today, I am heavier than I have ever been in my life. I am depressed and desperate, so I am trying Atkins again to get my body back in shape for summer. I need to lost approx. 70 pounds total, but want to lose at least 50 by summer time. I am motivated, but also terrified of failure. I am joining this forum because I've always done it alone, and I need some motivation this time.

Good luck to all of you, and please wish me luck :)

Hi and Welcome Girlee!

This is the BEST LC support site around for real. I've just recently come back after a bit of a time away and found so many of my old LC friends still here and still offering tremendous encouragement and best wishes.

Stick around - You'll find tons of support and make some great cyber friends.

Good luck on your journey back to good health.

Nancy
