          I hope people would not say that your dumb because those pictures tell a story. And the joke is on them in that case

          But us old timers do remind people that they do want to keep the weight off too because we know (some of us from hard earned experience) that we can put weight on amazingly fast too once we jump to what we used to do before Atkins. So it is important to look a head too. But it sounds like you are doing that as well.

          Thanks for the pics. I loved this positive news.

            Congratulations!

            I haven't seen anyone say you're "dumb" for staying on Induction.

            However, Dr. Atkins wrote that we should progress through all the phases of Atkins by the time we reach our goal.

            OWL takes way longer than most people think... you need to test each food that you add back... and find your CCLL.

            Pre-Maintenance takes quite some time as well.

                          Fantastic accomplishment. Are you sure that's not your dad in the first pic? Even though I've seen it often, I'm always amazed at how weight loss makes a person look so much younger! Of course, I envy your tan in either pic.
