    Wanted To Share!

    My weight has been going up and down a pound for the last two weeks. I just couldn't understand it. I was following my extended induction to a tee. Well just to cheer myself up I thought I would measure myself even though I had just measured myself on the 27th. I couldn't believe my eyes I lost 12 1/2 inches!!So Since I started measuring myself on august 22 I have lost a total of 24 3/4 inches. I am so excited I'm doing a happy dance right now.

    Oh my gosh! That's an awesome loss right there! It sounds like you built muscle mass and shrank those fat cells right off of you!

    Way to go, thinnie minnie!

                Cleo - I hope that the reason my weight is not dropping is because of "my body trying to maintain it's shape" and that one day I'll have a big wooshie (sp?).

                Mcotton - I also noticed that our stats were almost the same. How has everything been going for you?

                Dreamof145 - I lost 6 inches around my waist, 6 inches around my chest, and the rest was spread around.

                Bugaboo - I do love my tape measure! I am almost to the point of not even bothering to weigh myself.

                Thank you softnred & mamakimberly for your encouragement!

                  Actually things are going very nicely. I have not weighed or measured since around the 12 of Aug. I am waiting untill the 6 week challenge is up to do so. I would love to move my little ticker, but it will have to wait. My clothes are fitting so much looser. In June I bought a short and shirt outfit and was disgusted because I had to buy a size 26. Now I can fit into my 22s. I am very happy with that.
                  I will keep rooting for you. You keep up the great work. I would love to chit chat with you more.

                    You go girl! How exciting to be able to fit in smaller sizes. To be honest I haven't tried any of my smaller clothes yet I'm too scared. Right now I am wearing my 3x - 26/28w size clothes. (I have clothes ranging from 22w to 28w) I think I will wait till my month anniversary to try some of the smaller ones on. I would definitely like to chit chat with you also. Just let me know when you need encouragement & I'll be there!

                      I have clothes in sizes from 16 to 26. I had lost 70 lbs before(not atkins) and kept it off for about 5 years then it all came back on. I wouldn't get rid of my clothes because I kept saying..."i'm going to lose weight"...well now I am. Can't wait to fit back into them.

                        If you're like I am I have so many clothes that I couldn't fit but I couldn't bear to get rid of & now when I can get back in them they'll probably be so outdated anyway.
