    51 and losing weight

    Hi,
    I'm 51 years old and cannot believe that I lost 13 lbs during the induction period.

    I love all of the recipes, different ideas and not being the only one in the pool..........

      Su-weet! Way to go. I love it, too. I feel really good about all of it most of the time. Stories like this make me remember why. Great job sticking to plan. Will you continue extended induction? If so, for how long? Just grillin ya!
      149.8/no weigh/ 119



      1st goal: 139 (earlier weight)
      what the rungs mean to me:
      rung 1 - more veggies
      rung 2 - dairy (some milk in coffee)
      rung 3 - seeds, nuts (mostly sprinkled on salads)
      rung 4 - berries, melon
      rung 5 - wine -
      rung 6 - beans, hummus
      rung 7 - other fruits
      rung 8 - carrots/ potatoes (nah, prolly not)
      rung 9 - whole grains (fresh Dutch breads...)
      Major Goal - 128 lbs/ healthy range
      (on to pre-maintenance)

        This is a wonderful way to live our lives, especially when the first signs of age are starting to creep into our world. I can remember when I didn't have aches and pains but with the exercise I've been doing them seem to be getting less and less. I guess when your body is use to doing something other than just sitting and gets use to moving again and the aches and pains diminish.

        Good luck continuing along your journey. We have a little group of 50 year olds that say hi -- hope you stop by and say hi. http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...me-say-hi.html

          I am a bit late to welcome you to our little corner of ADBB, but wanted just to say hi
          Congratulations on your loss so far
          Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
          Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
