the worst thing i EVER did was to get off this woe!!!!! i am sooooo mad at myself. i started on october 1st originally and did it until january 3rd. thats when my husband and i went to florida, opened a sandwich shop and, because of all the chaos, atkins went out the window (slowly, i mean i tried, but it was just near impossible). anyway, the month of january, while working 100+ hours/ week and eating 1 sandwich per day i still managed to lose another 8 or so pounds and i got down to 275.

great, right??? business got under control, hired great people, and i didnt really have to work anymore. well....i wish getting back on atkins was as easy as opening up a business!!!!! honestly, i NEVER had such a hard time starting back in october. this time its 1000's of times worse (bc now i know what i was missing). the funny thing is, while on atkins, i didnt really have a hard time sticking to it, you know??? i could go to a restaurant and have breadsticks and pizza and whatever sitting right in front of me the whole time, NO PROBLEM. didnt even care to touch them. now, i have become like, AN ANIMAL! i can not stop eating carbs. and its always, "tomorrow-atkins, tomorrow!!" well, that makes it worse too bc, subconsciously i am telling myself, "you better stock up on extra carbs today" and i eat even MORE. arggggggggghhhhhhhhh

ahhhh....anyway i gained about 12 pounds back.

BUT.....
i know how helpful this site is and all you people here are so positive so i know i can re-start this,
i know i can,
