  • Lost another 4 lbs - now that's what I'm talkin' 'bout!

    I was so bummed when I did my weigh-in this week, that I was motivated to hit the gym (finally) after about 3 months of not going. So far my "workouts" have been walking, running up & down stairs (for my BBQ party), and yoga. This week I was serious -- and by golly, when I weighed my this morning I was down from 190 on Monday to 186! Woohooo!

    Tonight I'm hitting the gym for another 1.5 hrs AND doing yoga with my girlfriends. This is exactly the butt-kicking I needed to start doing some serious exercising.

    By the way, a couple of my friends have been commenting about how good I look these days. Frankly, even with the numbers and my clothes feeling a little loose, I haven't really felt like I've accomplished anything so far, but hearing 3 different people about how the weight loss is really apparent on my face (I have very chubby cheeks!), midsection and butt (my problem areas) was the affirmation I needed.

    Okidokes, thanks for listening.

      I'd drop the weigh-ins and just focus on loving your body where it is. Leave the scale watching behind you.

      Congratulations for moving that skeleton. May we all be inspired by your example!

        woo hoo weigh to go.

        Dr Atkins wasn't kidding when he said exercise was a mandatory part of his plan and if you were not exercising you were not doing his plan in chapter 15 of DANDR!
