Hi everyone! I'm not new to Atkins, but I'm fairly new to this site. Everyone has been great, and I appreciate the support I've received thus far.

Quite frankly, I'm just tired of continually feeling bad about myself. My husband is extremely in-shape (he does cardio and weight training 4-6 days a week), but he has always been very supportive of my endeavors. Thankfully, he loves me for who I am, not how much I weigh.

I've always been overweight, but in the last ten years or so, I've gained about 125 pounds. Nothing seemed to help me lose until I started Atkins in July 2003. Unfortunately, I didn't stay with it, and I gained my lost weight back, and then some. As of April 19, 2004, I'm fully committed to this lifestyle and I look forward to great success in the future.

I feel better knowing that I'm not alone in this battle, and I look forward to getting to know all of you better.

Hi jennilu and welcome to the TDC!

I know exactly what you're talking about as I've been in exactly the same place. I was doing quite well last year on LC and then really blew it and gained it all back. I re-started again in January of this year and I'm almost back to where I was last year at this time.

I know you can do it with the help and support of all the wonderful people here and with your renewed committment!

Hi Jennilu, congrats on finding your way back! Sticking with it is hard sometimes, but just ask yourself what you will feel like and look like this time next year. The time is going to pass anyway, so why not try losing along the way. Just focus on each meal, each day and you will get there.

Good luck!
