  • Why I KNOW I will be sticking

    I KNOW I will always stick to the Atkins way of life!

    I have just thought that 2.5 years ago when I started my journey I was wearing trousers with a 44 inch waist. Yet now, 2.5 years later I am in 32 inch waists. Not just jeans, but also smart trousers and shorts also.

    This is me for the rest of my life now, as there is no way I am ever going to allow myself to but weight on again!

    Thanks if anyone reads this, but I just had to pass on the info. Hopefully it will encourage others.

    Now, if I could just get into a pair of 30" trousers (very unlikely that will happen).

    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!

    You can do 30 inches, but you are NOT allowed to have a smaller waist than me! Well, I take that back. If you had a 27 inch waist right now, I could raid your closet for clothes!

      I totally want to wear 30's. I'm stuck at 34, but I'm catching up!

      That reminds me, I need to buy a new belt. This one ran out of notches, and is loose.

        What waist were you before you started, SkaPaladin?

                  I just need to tone up my belly now and I will be content. I won't get any smaller than a 32.

                      A friend of mine is a 5'10" male and weighs just 9 stone (126 lbs). But thats almost abnormal for a male.

                      I am happy with my 13.5 stone weight.

                        If you DO get smaller, put on a loincloth and send me a PM with a picture! My brother is skinny as a rail and a 32.

                            You would prefer it without the loin cloth?
