  • So here I am...

    Stopping by to join the century club.
    I have approx 140 pounds to lose to reach 150 lbs...(DAMN, THAT's ANOTHER WHOLE PERSON) YIIIIKEES..man....that just blew my mind...let me take a minute here...

    Okay, anyway, will put my official starting weight tomorrow, going to the gym tonight to join and that will be the scale I use to track my weight loss.

    Okay, now I have to sit back and think about how really really fat I am...

    Hey Thumper! Welcome to the Century Club. YAY! That's awesome you're joining a gym. That will get things off to a GREAT start. Don't think about how much you have to lose in the long run...just take things day by day or it does get a bit overwhelming, I know. We can so do this! We're all rootin' for you!

      Hi Thumper:

      Glad to have another starter. This is my second day and I feel so positive about the changes I'm making. I can't wait to shop at regular stores and not get nervous about plane seats. I'll be getting a gym membership tomorrow (payday) and I can't wait to play with all the different machines.

      Now go and drink water. I know I still need to.

        Thanks Liz and Tim. I'm glad I have someone to share this journey with who knows what it feels to NEED to lose more than 100 lbs. I promise to support you (and sometimes bug) if you do the same for me!!

                ATKINS BABY! That's right! I followed Atkins to the T. I also chose Atkins allowed foods that are lower on the Glycemic Index. I don't drink anything but water and 1 cup of decaf in the a.m. Water, water, water! It's so important. If your interested in learning more about the Glycemic Index here's a link www.glycemicindex.com .
                My Type-2 diabetes disappeared in 48 days. I no longer needed two types of medication to control it. It was and still is controlled by Atkins life-style alone! Also my high blood pressure stablized once I lost 100 pounds and I no longer require medication for that as well. This is the healthiest life-style there is for LIFE!

                  Wow Sherri!

                  That is amazing and inspiring. My mother was just diagnosed with diabetes and her doctor took one look at me and gave me that serious "doctor" look and proceeded to tell me about my high risk factor due to my weight and they fact that I suffer from low blood sugar. It's wonderful to know that Atkins is such a healing tool concerning so many issues.

                  Thanks for the support. I can't wait to tell you about the 100 pounds I'm going to lose.
