Back to Low Carb

Dreams · 08-26-2009, 06:34 AM

I'm back. Just started this week.

You'll be seeing my face more often in the Main Lobby because I find it helps me stay on track.

Wish me luck.

HerBoudoir · 08-26-2009, 06:42 AM

Best of luck to you. What plan are you following?

Lisa M · 08-26-2009, 06:43 AM

I wish you lots of luck! I come on here instead of just the PG to get remotivated to lc correctly, too. I sometimes forget what brought me to lcf!

Mazzie · 08-26-2009, 06:53 AM

Wishing you tons of luck! You can do it!

Good luck!! I started back in June and am almost down 20... It's easy now! I hope you're down 10 pounds by next week! I love the results of the first week of induction!!

Thank you and that's great!!

I lost 16 pounds the first time I did induction. Well, the first real committed time I did induction. I have always lost fast. That was five years ago and I was 25 then....now I'm 30, so we shall see how it goes.

SmileySue · 08-26-2009, 10:13 AM

Good luck to you!! You can do this!

Jannybunny · 08-26-2009, 10:16 AM

Welcome back to the ML! I came back here last year and with all the support and inspiration, I made great progress

You can do it...good luck!

I think I've had probably the same amount of attempts. But they weren't committed attempts. They weren't planned...I had more of a wing it type of attitude. So, the first attempt was serious and committed and now this will be my second serious go at it.

Yup. you will.

Portia · 08-26-2009, 01:01 PM

Me, too Dreams. After another failed attempt at WW.

I will look for you on the ML. Today is Day 1 for me.

I started a couple days ago. WW did work for me but I like a faster loss and LC does that for me. And also on WW - I could have whatever I wanted (just in moderation) and that obviously was too much of a slippery slope for me.

lil miss · 08-26-2009, 01:07 PM

Inquiring minds want to know - what are you gonna have to give up?

Oh sorry

Beer.

ReneeBW · 08-26-2009, 01:12 PM

I was one of those people who said, "not me, I'll never fall off the wagon, I'll stick to it." And low and behold here I am restarting after losing 100lbs and gaining 30lbs of it back. Frustrated, embarrassed and resolved to lose the weight and keep it off. And not be afraid to be thin...

Good luck!

lil miss · 08-26-2009, 01:20 PM

awww, beer. Sigh. yes, wine is my vice....

NeverGoinBack · 08-26-2009, 01:41 PM

Yay! Good for you, good luck! I had lost about 25 pounds pretty easily on WW, but I was always hungry and craving something. I am not back to a lower cal/low carb lifestyle and finally am at the point where I am losing again and not starving all the time. It is really the only thing that consistently works for me, so I am stickin' with it! Good luck to you!

Yeah, I won't be touching any for a good month. Then I may have a couple every other weekend. Last time around, I was able to drink on weekends and would still lose but I don't want to push it.

I guess not

I won't dare mention your other favorite thing. Not to eat, but to do. Nope, they will have to venture over the PG and find out for themselves haha.
