TEAM 6, SEXY SIXERS!!! February thread!

[Becky Sue]

I'm still here and cooking along. I had quite a surprise the other morning when I weighed for the first time in a few days and had lost 3 pounds!

Today's my 15th wedding anniversary. :yikes Steve sent me a few pics yesterday, and this was my favorite:



I like the reassuring body armor and the fact that his helmet is fastened securely to his head. Good boy!

WOW!!! 3 pound loss! I am so proud of you.

You have one handsome soldier there. I know he is so proud of you too. Just visualize when he gets home you are going to be One SEXY SLIM wife. He won't believe his eyes, but it is so possible to get your weight back down to normal and the WOE is the way to do it.

Keep us updated on how Steve is doing. We are interested.

Happy Anniversary, 15 years!!!! The rest of your anniversaries will be as a slim woman! Isn't that a wonderful thought! Our 34th Anniversary is coming soon, Apr 3rd. this will be the first anniversary that I am pretty slim. Not quite there yet but dang close.!!!

Thanks Dr. Atkins!!! You are changing our lives and we so appreciate it!

Hello Sexy Sixers!! Hope everyone is having a good Saturday before EASTER. It's beautiful here in Utah today after having a week of snow and dark skies. The sun is out and it is warm and sunny. (Great walking weather!)

Becky Sue, I know you are leaving to go to OKC and we won't hear from you for 5 days, so be careful and have a wonderful ATKINS FRIENDLY WEEK. Hope you have an exciting week!


Anyways, hope everyone is having a great EASTER WEEKEND.

[Becky Sue]

Thanks for the good wishes for my trip to Ok City, Becky!

My DD and I are going tomorrow and she is going to school for her job and I am hanging around the motel. They have an indoor swimpool and an exercise room, so I plan on using them. Hope they aren't doing maintance on the pool. LOL Or I will be disappointed!!

I will be home, apr. 1st. I sure hope I can show a weigh loss. Since I hurt myself I have been up a bit. This morning I was 198. Thank goodness I am still in ONEderland, but I am stuck at the door and can't seem to find my way.

Everyone Have a Happy Easter! Tomorow while we travel I will be thinking about the significance of Easter. God Bless you all!

Just wondering how the Sexy Sixers are doing? I haven't heard anything from anyone for a few days. I hope everyone is having a WONDERFUL ATKINS week. I talked to Becky Sue on the phone and she is having a blast in OK City with her daughter. She took lots of Atkins friendly food with her, has a pool and an exercise room available -- so she is definitely having an ATKINS FRIENDLY VACATION.

It snowed here in Utah last night. Boy did it snow!!! It is still snowing. I went to the gym this morning cause the sidewalks were not cleared yet. And...it was very cold and wet out. But, I did my daily two miles on the treadmill and will do another tonight when I get off work. I actually ran for 3 minutes on the treadmill, which as you know was quite an accomplishment for me. I have arthritis in both knees and it hurts like crazy to bend my knees much. But I am so happy I did. It feels great to push yourself and know that you did something you didn't expect.

GO SEXY SIXERS. WE ARE MAKING IT HAPPEN!!!

I'm still here! Not much to report. I'm so glad Becky Sue's having a good time. It's nice that you guys are such friends. It's actually starting to feel like spring here. It was about 12C today and the birds are making their way back. Unfortunately, I still have about half a metre of snow on my property, but we're north facing, and it's shrinking fast. I think it's supposed to stay this mild for a while. Still no running or walking for me, but I'm really enjoying the total immersion swimming I'm doing twice a week. I'm cycling indoors every other day and still doing upper body weight training. The only lower body is ab stuff right now. I've set a goal for myself that once the weather is nice and the roads are all dry, I'm taking my bike outdoors and am going to ride to work twice a week. It's only about ohhhh....8 or 9 kilometres to my office with one really big hill. Anyways, that's my plan. I just introduced some berries this week on my OWL plan, that was a treat.

I hope everyone else is well. Go Sexy Sixers!

Hi Team!! It is April Fools day, so be careful not to be caught by jokesters. Also...if the scale says you gained weight today...its just a joke. Don't be upset.

Hope everyone has a WONDERFUL weekend. (Atkins friendly of course)

[Becky Sue]

Hey!!! SEXY SIXERS!!! How's it going!

I made it home after my trip with DD. We had a nice time just being together. She did well in her class and I went swimming quite a few times at the motel.

I did have a gain of water weight when I got back. I was disappointed but the water is gone now and I am happy again. When I cook I don't use much salt and the meals we ate in the cafes were salty!! So I swelled up(water).

I had planned to work in my yard today but the wind is blowing 60 miles per hour, so here I sit at the computer.

Hope everyone is doing good.

Welcome home, Becky Sue. Sounds like you had a nice visit. I've been sooo sick the last two days. I got hit hard with a stomache flu and haven't been able to eat a thing since Monday morning. In fact, I've only began drinking water again today. I felt like I'd been run over by a truck. It even hurt to brush my hair. I may try to eat something today, maybe some broth first. I don't remember the last time I was this sick!

Hope everyone else is doing great!

[Becky Sue]

OH Diana,
I hope you are feeling better real soon. Take care of yourself. I just said a little prayer for you.

Our Isabeau is a new moderator. Congratulations!!!

[Isabeau]

Thanks, I hope I can do as good a job as the others! I'm finally feeling better today. I managed to hold down a bit of supper last night, and breakfast this morning. Still some diarhea, but that is much improved too. I even managed a little exercise today. That was the sickest I"ve ever been with a flu virus. I can totally understand now how flu bugs can kill the elderly or those with other things going on. Very nasty! Good to be finally on the mend!

[OnlyDo]

Congratulations, Isabeau! You'll do a great job -- your posts are so helpful!

I got on the scale this morning and had lost a couple of pounds. It wasn't until hours later that I realized I'd hit the 40 pound mark! :icondance

When I started back in November, I didn't think I could stick to Atkins. I started feeling so much better right away that I knew there was no other way to go. My weight loss hasn't been the fastest, but who would have thought that I'd lose 40 pounds in six months eating food I like and feeling great?

[Isabeau]

Awesome, Onlydo! I know exactly what you mean though. I still can't believe it for myself.

[Becky Sue]

Diana, and Toni,
I know what you mean about being amazed that this WOE is working and wishing I had known about it years ago.

I know i will eat this way the rest of my life. I feel good, I look good( other than my fading black eye, LMAO) and I like myself.

I am so proud of all us SEXY SIXERS! We are making a difference and it is changing our lives for the better.
