    Encouraged

    I am now sitting at 240. I was 274 in February. I am happy, but too poor to go buy new clothes right now. Especially if they hopefully wont fit again in 2 months. I cannot believe I am 5 lbs from my second minigoal. I am 21 lbs away from being off of the obese list on the stupid BMI chart. Thank you Dr. Atkins for thie WOE!
    Age-36 years old
    Height- 5'11( I tell short people I am 6'0. they'll never know)
    All time high- 274 (Feb 2010)
    Atkins Start date- 2-26-2010
    Start weight- 274
    1st Minigoal- 250(reached 3-25-2010)
    2nd Minigoal- 235(reached 4-22-2010)
    3rd Minigoal- 219 (that would make me no longer obese)
    Goal- 200

        woo hoo congrats. Checkout the second hand or thrift stores to see if you can find a few bargains. if you get them from a second hand store you know you can sell them back or trade for smaller ones when they are too big.

              Great progress
              Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
              Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



              Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!
