Here we go again! Atkins to the rescue. It's time. It's 'been' time! I am jumping of the diving board, ripping off the bandaid, stepping off the plank. That's it! I am tired of being uncomfortable in this skin I live in!

34 yr old wifey and proud mommy of two devilishly handsome boys.

When I quit my full time job one year ago and started freelance work out of the house, I fell in love with luxury of sleeping in and staying up late. This new schedule has been my destruction. I put on 50 lbs. Late night snacking when hubby is asleep, lazy days on the couch while he is at work, uncontrollable cravings that I always give into, yada yada............you name it!

The worst part....I don't go anywhere anymore. I don't want people to see me like this. I am definately not the same person.

I am here to change that and find that this support system may give me a tad more motivation. SO! Got the ticker, got the forum, got the ketostix, got a BOX in the frig with my weeks worth of food that I'll strictly pick from, got the snacks, got an excercise cd (turbojam)...now let's see if I can STICK to it this time!!!!

INDUCTION ...here I come!
I think I can!
I know I can!
I will I will I will!

You can do it ChristyAnna!!!!
We're here with you! ~Cheryl

It's easy to fall right back in the same old rut - I still have to watch myself too. You can do it hon.

Good luck good luck, you can do it!

Welcome to the forums!

I'm also back on Atkins. You can do it and I find that this webiste is very helpful!

The only thing I can say is to take it one day at a time. The thing I am doing different this time is looking at myself in the mirror and saying, "My Life Needs to Change." I am going for mini-goals instead of trying to break the whole 150lbs off in one fell swoop. I wish you well!

Welcome and best of luck to you!
