  • Size 26/28 to 12/14, getting closer to goal!!!






    I haven't been around ADBB much lately. I have been busy helping a friend get ready for her family to move into their new home. We have been painting.
    My DH and I went on a vacation and life has just been busy, but not to busy for me to prepare my meals.
    I just wanted you to know I am still eating the Atkins way and will do so for the rest of my life.
    I haven't been able to get the weight to start coming off lately, but I am still working at it. I will get there, just not sure what year it will be. LOL!!!! But then... this is not a race, it is for life!
    My DH pulled out his wallet yesterday and showed me a picture of me. He said he needed a new one of me. He said,"You don't look like this picture anymore!!" So this morning I got the ol digital out and snapped these pics.
    Went to Walmart and got him a wallet size. It's a wonderful feeling, having my DH ask me to get him a picture of what I look like NOW!! I am 55 years old and I feel so much younger!!
    Eating low carb the way Dr. Atkins taught me is the most wonderful thing I have done for myself.
    I love myself again.
    Life is good!!!
