  • my first epiphany!

    today i realized this pair of pants i wear weekly were HUGE on me and nothing is huge on me considering i weighed 380lbs a few months ago. I'm down to 339 right now and they are huge and that makes me pretty excited!! i realized some weightloss in some shirts which hadnt fit me at all since i bought them last sept. but now they fit me pretty well. so far so good! i'm excited the weight is coming off except my scales retarded. It first gave me 341 then i got back on and it was 339 then i got back on and it was 340 and once more it was 339 so i went with the lowest lol who cares all i know is its coming off!!!! WOO! :icondance

    Wow - 41 pounds kicked to the curb
    I bet you would have a hard time carrying a package that heavy around even for an hour - and you used to do that 24/7
    :joy :joy Weigh to Go :joy :joy
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

      Congrats on your success. Buying new smaller sized clothes is one of many pleasures of being an Atkineer. Good job on the 41 pounds gone for good.

        That is so wonderful! Congratulations!!

        And don't worry about the scales. They are not to be trusted. They will say bad things about you (and your loved ones) that are not true. Grrr. Scales.

        But big pants. Big pants don't lie! Way to go!!!

            weigh to go Keep shrinking. Soon you will be tossed out of your larger clothes store cause you will be too smmall for all the cholthes they carry.

                            Ahhhhh, one of my favorite epiphanies!! This has happened for me with shirts. Suddenly, one day I notice that the shoulder seems are hanging down well below my shoulder, and I have stopped pulling at the front of the shirt to move it away from my stomach, because now it is hanging so loosely!

                            Anyway, congrats on your successes, and keep up the hard work.

                              Most excellent! I love the way the clothes fit better, much more satisfying than the scale! I loved it when my underpants got baggy! I had to pull them up like old man pants! Funny, but now I have new panties, much more fun, much smaller size! :nod
