  • progress proof!

    I started atkins with a 24 pant size. Friday I broke out some clothes in the back of my closet I hadnt worn since after having my 2nd baby. (I have 3). The pants were size 20 and FIT GREAT! I could button them easily with no hang over (the nice jelly upper belly). I put them on with a nice smaller t shirt and my hubby came home from work and the first thing he said was , wow you look good! This is something considering my hubby isnt a compliment giver. Hes also pretty clueless about stuff like that so if he noticed then I know the rest of the world can and its really working...

    But sunday I pulled out my old size 16 denim skirt and IT FIT TOO! Its a tad snug so that it might be a bit constricting when i sat but still not hang over, but that may be because its highter waisted. Still its unbelieveable!!!

    A friend of mine has a daughter my age who was my size and she gave me a few bags of clothes her daughter cant wear anymore. I tried them on (all 24's) and they are all too big. The shirts swallow me! (I am smaller on top though now, loosing more weight there). I noticed that they were the same size as the stuff I had in my drawers but for some reason didnt fit so after rebagging up all her stuff, I went thought my drawers and ended up adding most of my stuff too after trying it on.

    It wont be long at all till I can shop in the regular area of the store instead of plus sizes. Im so happy I could wear an atkins bumper sticker across my butt!

      Awesome job!!! Keep up the great work, mc. Instead of the bumper sticker, how about a tattoo? )
