    Compliments

    I've just reached the 35 lb. mark. During the last few days people have really noticed. It's such a motivating thing to hear that. I told her that I have a ways to go still, but I WILL do it. The support from this board is great!

    WOOT on you, vikski! Good job losing your weight! Yes, ADBB is here for all of us, but no one is sitting on your chest and forcing the spinach and other Atkins-friendly foods into your ever-thinning body! You're handling that bit just fine!

    Anyway, the last person I sat on never recovered. :^O

    Way to go!

        What I wouldn't give to be 35 pounds lighter! Actually I'd be pretty close to goal with that achievement.

        CONGRATS!! Keep up the good work

              It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




              I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

                  Thank you! I'm so pumped up right now. This morning I came in wearing a pair of pants that I couldn't wear in the beginning. They are bunched up at the waist and the belt on tight otherwise they would be slipping to my ankles. That would be horrible! This is the last time I can wear these pants. I love them, but it's time to say bye bye. I'm also wearing a pair of sandals that were too tight, so i'm even losing in my feet thank goodness. I feel I have Barney Rubble feet. LOL. This morning people are really noticing the weight loss in my face as well. I wish that I took progress pictures but don't have a digital camera. Thank you to everyone for their support.

                    I think that you're doing great, take time to bask in your accomplishments.

                    This is the stage where I usually fall off for a minute, not using carbs, but partying or drinking. What I mean is the minute everyone notices that I've started losing...my inner self sort of panics - because I don't like the attention. Hopefully I'll be like you, and just sort of go with the flow!

                    Sounds like you are well on your way to achieving your final goal!
