starting again after 10lb gain

[shellyb_78]

Here we go again have been saying to myself I'm gonna get back on it and kept putting it off I finally forced myself to weigh myself today and I've put 12 lbs on an I can really tell
In my face and clothes I feel dead bloated, puffy and fat ! The only way is atkins from now on for this kid it's gotta be done I spent a bomb on a dress for my sisters fancy dress party at crimbo and meeeeeeeeeee to get in it so wish me luck people x

Good luck - I take it you've done Atkins before - I'm sure you'll lose it - I have just lost 10 lbs in my first 2 weeks xx

Welcome and good luck!

good luck...

I just joined today and am in the same boat. Lost all my weight on Atkins about 5 years ago and have been maintaining easily until a holiday to America in October (the curse of the all-you-can-eat buffets, I think). Now all my clothes are too tight and though I haven't weighed myself I believe that an inch round my waist probably equates to 8-10lbs. Have been back on Atkins induction since last Monday so fingers crossed I'll be able to zip my jeans up again shortly.

I'm really confused by your stats because they say you started your diet on 17 December this year.:hmm:

Unless this is some new backward diet where you start with the goal and work back in time (and up the scale)? I'm just confusing myself now. :sad0071:

 

[shellyb_78]

Hi boggins I started in January at 197lbs and went down to 178lbs then gradually put 10lbs on have been back on atkins for a week and lost 5lbs so am now 185lbs hope that explains it a bit better ! I don't know how to change my stats properly !

Hiya Shelley,
Thanks for your support. It worked. This morning I did my jeans up without lying down <g> I'm going to stick to induction for another couple of weeks though, I think, because I've been 'between sizes' for a long while (except for two weeks ago when I was moving to a definite size but in the wrong direction, LOL) so my new target weight is 4lbs off by Christmas. Fingers crossed for your next lbs.

 

[boggins]

Thanks Shelly, that explains it!

And congratulations on your jeans ajj! Good feeling.

 

[shellyb_78]
