    so close I can almost taste it!

    Hey gang,
    Just an update. I have been following extended induction, and I started Atkins on 4-5-05. I started at a shocking 372.8 pounds. I have dropped 64 pounds and can now shop in stores ( still the plus section but they have my size now!) I am 8 pounds from 299. I am kicking up the exercise, and water to see if I can get this off a tad quicker. When I started in April I told my DH that I could not do this it is too much weight to lose. Now I am positive that I can do this!

      Congrats on your success - 20 pounds a month is phenomenal! Keep up the great work and that milestone as well as more are just a matter of time away, a short time at that.

      BTW - I see your sig fine (at least the ticker).

                          Thanks you guys! Wouldn't you know it TOM showed up the day after I posted this, and now I am holding water ( gained 2 pounds so I am figuring I am holding about 4-6 pounds of water since my rings are tight again) Oh well, will let you all know when I get there.

                            That is so awesome. You are my inspiration. It is my TOM right now, too. I am just trying not to weigh until the week is out. I am on day 16 of atkins and slowing moving out of induction. Last time I did atkins and stayed in induction for so long I forgot that I could move on.

                            1st goal: 139 (earlier weight)
                            what the rungs mean to me:
                            rung 1 - more veggies
                            rung 2 - dairy (some milk in coffee)
                            rung 3 - seeds, nuts (mostly sprinkled on salads)
                            rung 4 - berries, melon
                            rung 5 - wine -
                            rung 6 - beans, hummus
                            rung 7 - other fruits
                            rung 8 - carrots/ potatoes (nah, prolly not)
                            rung 9 - whole grains (fresh Dutch breads...)
                            Major Goal - 128 lbs/ healthy range
                            (on to pre-maintenance)
