  • 12 days in and big loss!

    I started atkins 12 days ago with 131 lbs to lose. I just came from my doctors and weighed in at 268 down from 296! 28lbs!!

    I didn't believe it at first...but it's true!

    re-starting atkins: 4/28/09 - 220.7 pounds
    current weight as of:
    goal: 168-175 pounds then we will see if I need to lose any more.

    **well...I had a cheat, after a great start- and I'm starting again...just because I owe myself a clean slate.

      I told my Doc 2 weeks before I went on the diet that this was what I was going to do. She was all for it and was happy I was doing research- she wrote up the reqs for all the tests I needed to do and I told her I was going to start after my hubby's birthday (I needed to enjoy that last piece of fudgy cake, although I only had a bit).

      She was so happy- she also said to make sure that when I hit a plateau, that I don't get discouraged.

      All my tests came back fine- My HDL is very good- she says that means that I am pysically active.
      My cholesterol is slightly above normal but still ok

      Basically the only reason I am overweight is because I eat too much. But I don't care about that- I've lost 28 pounds! I'm so excited!

      She's totally behind me all the way- i wish all doctors were like that.

                thank you all for your support- this forum really inspires me to keep going everyday. The exercise challenges are awesome to keep me motivated...I've only joined 1 so far but I'm all in next month- looking forward to the vidiots challenge for may! Got my "walk away the pounds" vids all ready...I actually just did the 3 mile...I forgot how much I sweat with that one.
