It's time for round 2. I'll be beginning the Sonoma Diet this week (after being throughly discouraged and depressed about regaining 40lbs on Atkins). I am encouaged by what I've been reading and the recipes that have been posted on this site. Hopefully, I can start to definitively meet some of my life and weight goals. As I start diving into this, I'll let you all know how it goes. Any pointers are welcome. Thanks, in advance, for "listening".

Hi

Maintenance is a toughy, no matter which diet you lose it on the first time around. I didn't maintain either, and am doing it again. We have a GREAT forum for maintainers here, and I need to spend some serious time in there reading their advice so I'll do it right the next time. Maybe they'll be able to help you, too In the meantime, the Sonoma diet looks like a good one for getting it off, and keeping it off later, if we can stick it out

Good luck!

Hi and good luck, it's going to be fun getting to know you on this journey.
