  • I am pumped!

    All right all right all right.

    This is my second time around and this time I am focused and dedicated. I have not cheated and I am prolonging my induction phase to the length of Lent...

    It has been 19 days since I started (Lent started 16 days ago, I was eager though)...and today I am down a total of 21#!!!!

    3" off of my waist....and I feel great!

    Just thought I share with you all, I am not really telling anybody because I am a firm believer that actions speak louder than words. I only have 40# more to go and I am hoping for Memorial day.

    ...it feels good to tell someone!

                Well done GettingsmallerGrizz
                Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

                  Way to go Grizz! I am excited for you! I am looking at the second time around as well. Well, I never really quit the Atkins way of eating...just got sloppy. Anyhow, I am worried about taking off 20# that I have gained. But you make me realize that I can do it and that my body will cooperate! Thank you! Keep up the good work!

                      Thank you all, thank you all!

                      I went to work today. It was Jeans day...I have yet to purchase any new clothes as I am not sure what size I will be wearing towards the end. I have kind of plained out on the scale, but the INCHES are melting away...with that being said, people are starting to notice...it feels great to get compliments...plus I got baggy pants now...and I will have to buy a new belt soon...I am on my last hole!

                      The rest of you just keep your head up and stay on track.
