  • About 20 days in

    Here's a picture from the day before I started (7/26/09) and one from today (8/15/09).





    Today I weighed 225.4 lbs on the scale and I'm not 100% sure in that first picture (hadn't bought a scale yet), but definitely in the 236+ range.

    So in about 20 days I've lost around 10-11 lbs, I want more though!

    I'll keep you updated.

    EDIT: Oh and for reference here's another picture of when I used to weigh like 170 lbs (my goal) after high school when I had a jaw bone! haha

      Thanks Lia it's one thing to look at a picture of yourself and make a judgement, but it's way cooler when it comes from someone else!

                      Thank you everybody! Such kind words of encouragement.

                      The comments about me losing 11 lbs on my face made me laugh... gotta say though I love Atkins, it makes losing weight sooo much easier than any other method I've ever tried.
