35lbs down - 70 or so to go
Hi to all from Oz!
I started a new job on 09 Septemeber and ATkins the next day. Lost 11 kgs (24 1/2lbs), and in total over 8 weeks 16 kgs.
Joined the gym this week, I get there at 0530 each morning before work (good thing I'm a farm girl and an early riser), and while my legs are aching, I feel great, I haven' had this much energy for 10 years.
I put on a lot of weight after an injury to both Achilles tendons at Christmas time 1996. Had it operated on 2 years later but the damage was done. My former weight control method was walking 8 miles or so a day - now I can't do that, the ankles hurt too much.
But I can stick to this - I've given up evil junk food and my big vice, potato crisps, am eating like a horse and never hungry. MY goal is 60kgs, but I may find 61 or 62 is right, I have no idea what I'll look like at that weight - just have to wait and see. My tentative goal (at a rate of 1kg per week) is June 2006.
