I know I should'nt but I couldn't resist!!! hehe

Hi guys,
I Just measured myself again, I thought I was being silly as I only just measured myself 2days ago for my starting stats!

Though I noticed by belly seemed alot less............ swollen, and I tried an old jacket on that actually fit! I coudln't even zip it up before!!

So I coudln't resist, I measured myself again and to my shock my waist is down to 45 Inch!? I was 47.5 Inch 2 days ago!! I've lost 2.5 inches!!! in 2 days!!!

Granted alot of this I'm sure is water, and I've been working out so my muscles are probably tighter pulling my gut in, but I'm still really impressed!

I'll wait now (if I can) and measure again after my 2week of induction, Just thought I'd share my good news!

Atkins is awesome!!

Congratulations! You are right about some of it being water but isn't it great just the same?
I have only lost 3-4 pounds in almost 4 weeks after Re-Inducting myself but I am down 14 inches! So folks, the scale really doesn't tell the entire story. Measure yourself and you might be surprised!
