  • A third of the way there

    I was taking my before pictures for my Power 90 program and after thinking about it, I realized that I took before pictures in Nov/Dec when I first found Atkins. While I only stayed with the WOL a couple weeks it was a huge deal for me because the experience led me to where I am now. I knew I had found the right program and I knew I was ready. But first, I had some cleaning house to do. The pictures sat and sat until I found them today. I knew my body had been changing but I forgot just how big I was just a little more than 3 months ago. Today I am still smoke free, coffee and latte free and my inhaler usage is down SIGNIFICANTLY. I don't know how to post pictures next to one another but you get the idea. Pardon my hair, in the first pics my locs have that fresh out of bed look and in the second my afro isn't much better

                              You can't choose were you lose from. My butt is shrinking but my thighs are just barely starting to budge. So it looks totally out of proportion right now. Luckily, it is temporary. Just keep going; when your body is ready and done reducing in the easier areas then the harder areas will start shrinking.
