  • Half way to goal. Before and during (52lbs lost)

    So, I'm half way to my goal. I've been on Atkins since January 9th and have had a LOT of hiccups on the way (3 times coming off plan due to illness and 2-3 weekend long cheats).

    I'm kinda disappointed due to know that I could probably be down another 10lbs or more if I haven't had those hiccups but at the same time I am estatic at my progress.

    I notice the loss mainly in my face, everyone else notices it in my mid-section (I personally don't notice much but also don't have a side view to compare). I started off wearing a 44-46" jeans, now wearing a 40"-42" jeans (the 42"s are starting to get way to big.

    I am hoping to be in the 220's by my birthday which is a little over 2 months away. Once I hit goal, I plan on enlisting into the Canadian military (served 5 years in the USMC, so time to serve my other country when I get healthy enough).

    First picture. 308lbs.


    Second picture. 256lbs front.


    Third picture. 256lbs side.

            Work out injury? The closest thing to a work out injury I had would be when I blacked out playing hockey Saturday but that was due to low blood pressure and not eating in about 14 hours.

            I've pretty much completely recovered from when I was wounded in Iraq. I still get some back pain when I work out pretty hard, but other then that I'm fine.

              Oh you did not log in your workout in the strength challenge last month so I though you were hurt. Sorry must have gotten that wrong.
              Anyways glad you are fine.
