The Sweet FEEL of Success

[jade]

Hey All,
As many of you know, I leave for my bike tour on Saturday. Tuesday/Wednesday of this week I got some nice long time in the saddle. It felt great and I'm really looking forward to the tour.
But last week I went to our local Goodwill to find some shorts to wear on tour. I found some nice army green ones and tried them on. They were sort of tight through the hips but otherwise they fit fine so I bought them.
I didn't think about them until this morning when I needed something to wear as the weather has turned quite warm where I live. I slipped them on and NO MORE TIGHTNESS!!! It was great! They are so comfortable and they look good too! Those two days of cycling really paid off.
Exercise is such a key part of the Atkins plan. Without it, the results just won't be the same!

Here's to the 'Feel' of success!
Be well-

Tru dat’
Today I am wearing some jeans to work that 2 weeks ago were too tight to go out of the house in.
But I’m wearing them today and they feel great. I guess 2 weeks of clean induction and my workouts
Are paying off

Couldn't agree more. Hope you have a great trip, jade.

Hey "californiacasey"
Congratulations! YES! It IS paying off! I went to WalMart yesterday to buy another pair of jean shorts and was able to SLIP on (not push myself in to!) a size 18!!! That is tremendous for me!

Keep up the good work!
Be well-

Hey "Isabeau"
Thanks! I'm SO looking forward to just getting out of the city! I'm encouraged by the fact that this will be only the second time that I've went on tour and had control over what goes in to my mouth!

Thanks for the encouragement!
Be well-
