  • For once Im happy!!!

    Im very happy for myself for the 1st time. Ive been so down on myself throughout this whole diet thing. Today is my 60 day mark. I have a mini goal coming up on Monday to be at 30lbs lost. Today I weighed in at losing 28 lbs. Wish me luck. For the 1st time today I had to dress up for My son's parent/teacher conference and my dress pants were so big I had to safety pin them to keep them from falling down. I actually looked skinny!!! YIPPY!!! The girls said "skinny minny". Trust me Im not skinny but Im looking much better day after day!!!! I just wanted to let everyone know how happy I was!

                  Great shrinking going on even if the scales are not co-operating as much as you hoped!!
                  Sometimes following Atkins means we lose fat but also add muscle so the scales are not good measures of our losses and people post that though they are not down to the weight they are aiming at they already have surpassed the dress size goal they set, so maybe consider setting a dress size goal as well.
                  Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?

                    According to your stats you do not have a huge number of pounds to lose so the thing you might be doing wrong might be that you are staying on induction too long

                    Many people who did overstay their induction period and stalled have found that moving to OWL restarts their losing!
