    I don't need no stinkin' scale 'cause....

    I can put my jeans on!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    When I re-started Atkins in January I had no jeans in my closet that fit me. I tried on a pair the day I began induction and they would not even go over my bg ole butt. Well... I put those jeans on today. They went over my butt AND I could button them even!!! Gotta tell ya.. I felt so dang proud walking around in that beat up old faded pair of jeans today.

    I am really doing this! I am really going to succeed this time! What a wonderful feeling that is to know in my heart that I am on the right path and that this time the weightloss is for keeps....

          That's just the greatest feeling!

          I had a similar experience. We had a funeral to attend and I didn't think I would be able to wear my good clothes in the back of the closet, but they fit again!!!

          Yeaaaaa for us!

          Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, Champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, screaming "WOO HOO-What a ride"

                What I know:
                1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
                2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
                3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
                4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.
