  • 20 Pounds!

    I don't know why this particular number is so exciting for me, but I figured I'd share my glee at seeing 205 on the scale this morning. 6 more till ONEderloand! I may just meet my mini goal!

      You should be very proud of yourself. 20 pounds is a lot of weight. Are you dropping sizes? Just try to lift a 20 pound bag of dog food the next time you go shopping. It's hard to do and you lost that much weight. Kudos to you!!

            Congratulations!!! 20 pounds is awesome!


            I dare you to walk around the grocery store with a 20 pound sack of potatoes, putting them back after a few rounds in the store, of course.

            Best wishes on your next mini goal into Onederland

                Congrats thats amazing! I did the potato bag test and 20 lbs gets very tiring lugging it around. Imagine what it did to our bodies while on our frame!

                  I just read about your 20 lbs lost. Congratulations!! I can't wait until I'm at 205. I weighed 217 this morning and am so looking forward to achieving the 205 goal like you have accomplished. I started the Atkins lifestyle, AGAIN, on Thurs. I'm a "second time arounder" and did not realize this bulletin board existed until this Wed. There are so many supportive people here. Good luck reaching under 200. I know you can do it!!!

                      No stats. Not weighing anymore ever. Will post "before and after" pictures when I want to. The end.
