WAY TO GO!! I always have to remind myself of how I feel after I exercise, because I never enjoy it while I'm doing it either lol.

3 hours, Sarah, you are CRAZZZZZY!!!! lol but that's a good thing, that's awesome!!

I am back down to my pre-thanksgiving weight finally and so I am much happier. 195.2 today and ready to keep losing. Next goal; Between 193-194 by Thursday, Dec 1st, so I can claim 10 pounds down for the month of November. 10 pounds per month has been my average so far, so I really want to keep it going at that rate!! Gotta get my exercise in this week to make it!! If I can get there by Thursday I will be so proud of myself because November has been such a trying month for me!!! Can't wait to say goodbye to it!!

I'm also so excited because my sister might be coming to stay with me for a month, and I know me and her are going to go hiking a lot while she visits, she is so much fun, I can't wait! It will be nice to have a walking partner in town.. I love my fiance, but his idea of being active is walking from his car to the Best Buy entrance if you know what I mean lol!

Take care, have a great day!!

Hi guys, haven't posted for a while but I'm here lurking around and reading all ya'll's posts. So glad everyone is doing good. I've been able to resume my walking. Today I was able to walk 1 hr at 2.5 mph on the treadmill. I haven't tried to go to Curves yet. If the walking is going okay by Monday, I will resume Curves 3 days a week and continue walking 3 days a week - then 1 day of rest. I haven't lost any more weight but I did get in a pair of 20 pants I had in the closet that I haven't been in - in years. I could wear a smaller size except that my abdomen is still larger than the rest of me and the zipper is an issue. So I must be losing inches even though I haven't lost any weight. That means I gone from a size 26 pants down to a 20 with my 35 lbs weight loss. I'm really tickled with that.

Re: CC "Fat Blaster" challenge!

I've been working on my Christmas card cards today. Hope all that are participating will enjoy getting one. It's really nice Kent put this list together for us. I appreciate being allowed to be included in this activity this year. I've already gotten my first card. It was from dreamof145. Boy, is she on the ball this year.

[yankee]

Re: CC "Fat Blaster" challenge!

I got one from her already too! First card of the year. I sent mine out early this week. It's keeping me in line.

Haven't done the official weigh in at the doc's yet but will try to get there later this morning. Between the post-Thanksgiving strict menu plan and losing that monthly bloat we women have to deal with the scale has hit an all time LOW!

Re: CC "Fat Blaster" challenge!

Hi! I am new to this forum as of today. I will be starting Inducution this Sunday. I would like and need a challenge to take me to the end of the year. I have joined another challenge and just realized it is to take me down into the One hundies, which I am not there yet. I have 41 lbs to lose to get me to the one hundies, and I don't want to set myself up for failure and say I will lose all this weight in 3 weeks. With that said...

I would like to join in on this challenge to lose 10 lbs by the end of this year...I think this is a reasonable goal to achieve.

I, _Terra__ swear to be faithful to the Atkins Way of Life in order to become healthier and look and feel better about myself. Whether facing fluctuations of the scale, fourth of july picnics, birthday parties, or mean jerks who want to tear us down..., I will not waver in my determination to the promise I have made to myself on this day! For I know that if I am true to the Atkins WOL, health and confidence will surely follow!

My goal is to _Lose 10 lbs and get through Induction__ by christmas (or the end of the year).

I know that when I achieve my goal, I will _give myself a pat on the back and plan for the next Fat Blaster Challenge_.

And I promise that when I am having trouble, I will come to my fellow teamsters to help! In addition, I will help my team out by also providing encouragement, wisdom, and understanding when they need it.

Re: CC "Fat Blaster" challenge!

Hey Terra! I applaud you for diving in at this difficult time of year. I'm losing very slowly right now and will not meet my challenge goal BUT have realized that it was very unrealistic and made early on when the opportunities to exercise were many and the weight was coming off quickly. Not so easy right now but the downward trend continues. The inspiration to stick with it is alive and well on this board.

Checked in with the doc today. High blood pressure is mine no more!!! The scale confirmed my 46 pound total which will be 50 by the end of the month. Not such good news on the neurological front so pain management will be a big deal in the new year. Looking back over this past year though.... too many blessings to count!

Welcome to the challenge!! The "Winter Onederland Challenge" is open to anyone - not just those trying to get into the one hundreds - we just liked the name . But post in whatever challenge you're most comfortable in - or both of them, there are no rules!! Glad to have you aboard

My December has been very slow going so far. Hopefully this week I can pick up some lost momentum.

Yankee - Congratulations on the healthy blood pressure and the amazing 46 pound loss, rock on!!

Re: CC "Fat Blaster" challenge!

You are all so adorable,
dears!

Here are some good wishes
And some fairy dust
A little whooshie
from your bust,
from your stomachs
from your thighs
You're shrinking now
Before our eyes.

Re: CC "Fat Blaster" challenge!

Well christmas is almost here, not quite at the goal of being under 190 by christmas yet, but I am close (192.6 this morning). If I can still get there by New Years that would be wonderful. Either way, I'm extremely thankful to have come as far as I have and hope everyone else out there is happy with their successes as well. I appreciate all the support I received in this challenge, Thank you to all who post here, your support meant more then you know!!
