This is my first post although I've been a member since June when I started the Atkins diet. My problem might be a little different from the rest of ya'lls so if anybody has a similar issue i would love to here from you. I'm a recovering bulemic. I had been bulemic since jr. high and had weighed no more than 110lbs since then. I decided to quit "killing" myself back in November of last year. And just as I thought...once i started keeping down my food...I started gaining weight. I started on Atkins in June to lose the weight I had gained and hopefully build my metabolism up to normal. It has certainly been a struggle for me but have found that this WOE is the only way I'm not going to gain anymore weight. I've lost 7 pounds since starting 10 weeks ago....it's coming off slowly!!! But as I figured...I had totally ruined my metabolism with my disease. Does anybody know how long it takes to bring my metabolism back to normal? btw...i just love this forum!!!

Welcome! Nice to have you here! I don't know the answer to your question about metabolism, but I struggle with it, too. I wish you the best of success! :wave:

It's good to hear that you overcame your bulemia. It seems to me that figuring out your metabolism rate is a tricky thing. I hope someone out there with more medical expertise reads this post because I would llike to know as well.

Good luck to you...
