I'm back *again* and need to -135lbs

Purple_Orchid_87

So i'm back again, some of you may remember me, most will not
was on here before and lost of couple of stone, around 25-30lbs
fell off the wagon and went back to junk foods and 3ltrs fizzy pop

Am going to do an Atkins Style diet, lower in carbs and higher in protein/fat - its hard to get used to at first but Induction is going to be difficult after all

no full fat coke or diet coke - switching to flavoured sparking water and then to plain water in time
no normal caffeine ladened coffee - decaff to start and then to nothing in time

Feel fre to add me as a friend

I am so glad you made it back...

I'm right there with you, starting back. I have 30-40 lbs to lose this time around. I had gotten about 20 lbs from goal and then let it all go. I have gained back 15lbs and am jumping back on the bandwagon!

I also have decided to try a low carb lifestyle...only a few days in but I'm feeling great so far!

Good luck!!

If you already have a history of falling off the wagon, why are you choosing a dieting path that requires unsustainable food choices?

Why be judgmental and assume that she cannot sustain on those food choices. I do everyday. I eat only about 5-15% carbs and the rest is protein. I am caffeine free, sugar free, and have kept my weight off.

I'm not being judgemental at all.

Why are you judgementally accusing me of being judgemental?

I've been away for months too and, during those months, I've gained 19 pounds! I haven't been controlling my food intake nor have I been exercising. I've let the stress of job situations and family member's health issues derail me. My fault entirely. I need to get serious about this...

To be at a perfect goal weight, I would need to loose 135 pounds, too. To feel much healthier and happier, I would be thrilled to loose about 50...and keep it off!

OMG,, stop highjacking the friggin post!

OP, I know you aren't looking for it but the best piece of advice I ever received when I was starting out, again, was to just make sure I had a calorie deficit each day, regardless of what I consumed. This helped me greatly and in time, I was able to become more restrictive in my intake.

I wish you much success this time around! :flowerforyou:

Welcome back. Take it slowly, change just a few things at the time as this is not a race.

Good luck
