Goal Weight:130.0 lb
following: Atkins
performance: gaining 0.8 lb a week

I'm a 40 year old mom with two kids. I love books, tennis and the outdoors, and I just moved to the suburbs from the big city 6 months ago. I'm still getting used to life in the 'burbs, especially going to the grocery store and cooking for me and my kids. Also, now that we drive everywhere, we're walking a lot less than we used to. Now that my kids are 5 and 6, I've decided to finally get rid of the baby pounds. I've lost a little over 30 lbs on Atkins in the last few months, and I'm about halfway to my goal.

Welcome! There haven't been as many postings here lately, but I still check this forum out every few days, so I'll be around. Glad to hear that Atkins was working for you before - it's my second time on Atkins too.

03Sunshine, it's just one day and sounds like you're already bouncing back. You have such a nice attitude - Sunshine is a good name for you! Great work Chelsey32460 -- getting below 200 is so psychological, isn't it!

Great work everyone! Just catching up on all the posts and it seems like everyone is really motivated and having fun. I am proud of myself because I exercised yesterday for the first time in more than 6 years. Of course I get exercise in daily life, but I'm talking about a focused period of exercise. I hope I can keep it up.

How was the weekend everyone? I always get off track from my good habits on the weekend. On Saturday night I went out to a club with friends, and since I'm trying to avoid Aspartame too, I felt like I had to order a glass of wine, otherwise it would have been Club Soda, which just seemed too boring.

Hi everyone, I just started Atkins again about 10 days ago. I'm glad to see so many new people joining too. I have to lose 68 lbs in total, I lost 6 in the first week. I'm anxiously awaiting Tuesday to see how much I lost the 2nd week.

Well, I gained 1/2 lb this week. Ugh. I can't seem to get the weight loss going again the way it should. Might have to try changing my diet around.
