Default Hi I'm a carb addict.

Having spent the last few days binging and being completely off the rails I've come to a decision. The plan I've been following although in general a good one, and a plan on which many people have lost and maintained their weight loss the plan is not for me. Why? because I'm a carb addict. I've tried numerous diets, eating plans some more successful than others but the only one where I not only lost weight, and felt physically and emotionally stable was Atkins. So I'm starting back on Atkins Induction. I know that I'm going to feel lousy for the next few days as I detox from the nasty carbs my body can't tolerate but I also know that once I'm over that period I'm going to feel better than I have in ages.

Welcome Niki54, I have also tried many diets, and know thinking about it, the only one that really worked for me was also Atkins (many years ago.)
I started this Mid-Monday and have 28 pounds to loose.
Just wanted to welcome you and wish you luck.

Thanks for the warm welcome into this section of 3 Fat Chicks, you've all made me feel at home.

Guess where I've spent a lot of time today! Give in ? The toilet! I should have known that eating up those WW sweets yesterday wasn't the best idea. The bad head hasn't started yet, but in a strange perverse way I'm sort of looking forward to it as it means I'm clearing out the bad and making way for the good.
