  • 80.5 lb gone

    I am new to this site and I am loving it! I received some very very warm welcomes.

    I started my low carb journey on 5/23/03 and within about a year I lost around 70 lb. My average loss was 7 lb per month.

    On Jan 13 2005 I had a full tummy tuck with muscle repair and breast lift to eliminate a ton of extra skin.

    I recently started counting calories, and was able to drop an additional 10 lb within the past few weeks.

    I am 27 lb below my original goal, and the feeling is GREAT.

    You can do anything you put your mind to. If I can do it, anyone can. In my past life I was THE POTATO QUEEN. Anyone that knew me then can testify to it. I had potatoes for breakfast, lunch AND dinner every single day.

    Now with a wealth of excellent recipes, I don't crave crap anymore.

    Check my website in my profile for additional info and pictures (I have photo albums there).

    I LOVE ATKINS! And I am very very passionate about it.. to the dismay of some people, but they'll get over it.
    Keep doing what you're doing & you'll keep getting what you're getting!!!

    welcome to the board.
    congrats on your success from all the hard work you did working your Atkins program to become the big loser you are today!

                Welcome to ADBB Alliecat! You were very kind to me when I first started at the other site many moons ago. I was quite inspired by your weight loss in the beginning and still am today. Your transformation is amazing. Congratulations on being such a great ambassador for the Atkins WOL.
