Day 32 of Extended...I'm shrinking...bwahahaha

[SlimmingObjectivist]

This is so great man, everyday i wake up and look in the mirror..my face bloat is leaving, my body is shrinking. I did buy a scale, not 70 $...$15, at target. it's a taylor lithium. was on sale and...i'm not a tightwad...but is it necessary to spend 70 dollars on a scale for crying out loud? Here's the kicker...it wont work for me until i lose enough lbs to register 330lbs. Big reward+motivation....i did this purposely. currently it just errors out. not for long though... ha

scales are kool, nothing matters more than feeling comfortable and/or being able to get on those new pants that dont fit you anymore and were just taking up space in your house. my shirts and pants are falling off and on my grandmothers grave....*Love you and miss you grammy* I'm not affiliated with/or being compensated in any way by atkins inc. If you can't stick to it and do it the right way...maybe you shouldn't be knocking it and wondering why "i'm not losing anything". Sure, if you eat low carb and just think it's ok to eat small no-no's....you'll gain like mad. I just see alot of ignorant people on other bb's not following the plan and angry because the're not seeing results that they don't deserve.

Bye..........thanks for reading my rant. :tounge

Good call... I did this exact thing when I first started Atkins. I purposely bought a scale (analog, not digital) that only went to 300. I started off around 340lbs, but before I knew it, my weight was registering. (You won't believe the feeling of accomplishment you'll feel when this happens to you, too.)

Congrats on the shrinking! :dancing

Congratulations! See, it is possible, it just takes time. And the tip about the scale is a good one.



You look great, keep up the great work!

thanks all!! ha :ThumbsUp


P.S. had a dream the other nite that i was only 4 inches tall. everyone i knew kept pointing at me hysterically saying, "told you atkins wasn't good for you" i was yelling "it's not suppose to do this..it's not suppose to work like this"

next morning i got to thinking about it and spit coffee all over the place...hehehehehehe.

4inches tall? :laughing

Nice rant.

I bought a scale shortly after I started Atkins.. it ended up somewhere in the garage and then the kids started playing with it.. and well, now it says everything weighs about 25lbs!

The 'rents got an fancy shamncy scale (my dad has to weigh every night because of medical reasons) and I haven't set foot on it yet.. kind of afraid what numbers will pop up. :yikes Hope you have better luck with your scale! Ohh.. I did weigh my little dog the other day, he's a mini-pin/chihuahua.. he's supposed to weigh around 10lbs and he weighs 13! I guess it's time to put him on Atkins huh? :yes
