I'm in a similar boat too it seems. I stopped smoking 11 months ago (only one month to a year smoke free!!!).

I'd lost 40 pounds prior to that and since then have steadily gained back about 20 of those pounds.

I am starting induction again today, but not looking forward to the headaches and cravings, it almost makes me want to start off on OWL.

My other thought is that once we've lost weight, we really need to look at calorie intake and exercise levels, so how does that affect the Atkins food that we eat. perhaps its why we don't see the same results as first time around?

But here's hoping I can stick with it and move on!
