  • They fit!

    Heaven only knows how, but I am now wearing a pair of SMALL boxer shorts!

    I havent worn any item of clothing which has an "S" on the label for probably 18 years!!!!!!! It has only ever been "XXL" "XL" "L" or "M". I never thought I would ever get into an "S" again. Granted they are a little tighter than I would normally wear! But an "S"

    On the label, they suit people with a 31 inch and 33 inch waist!

    I still way in at 190 (ish) so I am by no means anywhere near where I need to be (please note that my pictures do flatter me a bit, you cant see my tummy in them).

    Anyway, i am extatic, and its making the last 2.25 years more worthwhile.

    This Atkins diet lark has been such a life changer to me, and is by no shadow of a doubt been the best achievement I have ever had.

    Thanks for reading. Keep up the good work everyone...

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

                          Well I'm in Marks and Spenser's Large (36-39") - down from XXL - and don;t envisage getting into anything smaller. Mind you I have a pair of Speedo swimming shorts that are marked "M".

                          And come on, Rich, put on a pair of decent summer shorts and let's see you without a shirt. If Kent and I can do it . . .
                          Atkins didn't say 'Calories don't count',
                          he said, 'Don't count calories.'

                              Dave, the rate your going you'll get to 190 lb before me.

                              We are the same height, but you are half my age and this old man can't lose the last few pounds.
