  • Finally Decided to Post Before Pic




    Hi I’m Cher for those of you who don’t know me. I have been on Atkins forever. At least it seems that way. I started about 7 years ago at 230 pounds. I’m sure I weighed well over that but just wasn’t willing to weigh. This was my before picture when I first started Atkins. I dropped most of my weight the first year. Kept the weight off for about 5 or 6 years ( I forget now… it was a long time. I maintained at between 127 – 134 during that time. Then I had to go on 4 medications that took me up to 192 pounds within 3 – 4 months. A couple of months later, I came to this site again for support and now I’m at 154 pounds (a year later). I am trying to get to my goal weight of 140 pounds by July 4th.

    I’m 51 years old… I’ve still had to take medications… and I don’t believe in excuses. But I do believe in Atkins

    Mostly I believe that you never give up... no matter what

        Ohmygod. You're 51?? I never knew that! I always thought you were early 30s. Well, if that's not a reason people should do Atkins, I dunno what is!

                    I’m posting a little late… I went to a concert this evening. They actually asked to see my ID…lol!

                    Thank you Jimmie… you’re always so sweet . I wish I was at goal. I have definite target areas I need to work on with those measurements. But it keeps getting better! I’m really glad that I took them. Now, I know exactly where to focus.

                    Thank you CathyJo… but the way… I love your “I may not be perfect, but I’m always me”. Great motto to live by!

                    Musical Dreamer – Congratulations on your weight loss! You’ve done an incredible job! Thanks for stopping by and supporting me. I’m impressed with you !

                    Sally – Thank you (smiles). Look at you! WoW! You look great… plus you get to live in Italy… lucky you!
