    This is soooo worth it!

    Well when I was at my Highest weight I wore a size 26 YIKES!!! So anyway I went out today to browse some clothing. My pants I wear now are a size 20. Well I saw a cute pair of jeans in a size 18. I bit my lip as I picked them up debating if I should dare try them on. Finally after arguing with myself I took them into the dressing room. I slid them all the way up... then took an enormous breath as I reached for the zipper. They zippered as well as buttoned!!!! And looked absolutely fantastic!!! I am so overjoyed! Just had to share
    Hoping to be @ 180 lbs

          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.

                      Keep up the good work!
                      Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
