    41 lbs down this year!!!

    Don't post here a lot, but wanted to keep you updated! As of today I am down a total of 41 lbs since the first of the year. Went from a 40 inch waist to a 36, and a XXL shirt to a L. Low carb is my salvation!!! Lots of exercise and water, and few carbs...

    Original goal: Lose 30 lbs by Mar. 1st, 2006. I made it!!!

    Calling it GOAL at this point. I'm happy with where I am now and hope to stay there, or maybe even take it down a little more.

      Thanks Bren,
      I'll feel like a million bucks when I get below 200... into Onederland!!! I feel pretty darn good now, but I still have my goals, and then on to maintenance... I'm off to a good start, and it's been pretty easy really. I say that, but it's been a total change of lifestyle as far as eating goes. But still, it hasn't been hard. And, if I can do this anyone can!!!!!!!!!

      It really isn't that hard!!!

          Hey Barb,
          Just been hanging out at the sister site mainly... not as much action there, but I fit in better there I think. Still doing "mostly Atkins" according to some, but it's been all good for me thus far. Thanks for wondering!

              Well done Rick. It's time for some pictures.
              Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
              he said, 'Don't count calories.'

              Began Atkins March 04 at 260lb, reduced to 203lb by April 07 and maintained.

              Atkins makes exercise mandatory - I took up cycling - see last pics at 203lb.

                      Thanks Elishia... mutual admiration society here I guess... you just keep looking better and better with all of those pics!!!

                      Labarum, Yes... I know I need to get some pics done. Summer time and boating season is coming soon, and I'm sure I'll have some then. Just haven't had any done yet.

                      Thanks Sheshy and Austlyn! It's always good to feel pats on the back!

                      Susie, yep I'm still doing low carb and loving it!! Low carbs/good exercise equals better health!!! I'm loving it!

                      I still have my moments, and have had one long stall, but it's still all good. I have more energy than I've had since being young, get more exercise than maybe ever.... And I just feel good about myself... something I've had issues with in the past. Life is good!
