Good job, Melissa!
I'm down around the 16 lb. mark, weight is coming off slower now that I'm past the half-way mark.
Any other New Years folks still hanging in there?

I had some blueberries last week. Yuuummmm!

As the original posters on this thread are now further on in their Atkins journeys I have moved it into the Main Atkins forum so people on different phases of Atkins will see it and hopefully respond and keep in touch.
Well done all of you

Hi,

I am a "new year's Atkineer" checking in. Down 16 pounds--thought it would be more, but slow is just fine too!

This Board rocks! I check it almost everyday and it has been incredibly helpful. Thanks to all who post because it really really helps---it's like you find a tidbit, new idea, or great inspiration sometimes when you least expect it and sometimes when you desperately need motivation. Thank ya'll!

Wanted to report in. I'm still at 275, but decided to do some measurements for my 55 pounds down.

I measured Neck, Biceps, Forearms, Chest, Waist, Hips, Thighs, and Calves at 330 and now at 275.

At 330 At 275 Difference
Neck 17 15 -2
Biceps 20 17.5 -5
Forearms 13.5 12 -3
Chest 52 40 -12
Waist 54 47 -7
Hips 61 53 -8
Thighs 38 30 -16
Calves 22 18.5 -7

Total for all parts measured is 60 inches lost! Wow!! Will do this again next month.

Gosh, Melissa, you are doing GREAT!!! You should be very proud of yourself--what an amazing accomplishment! And way to go Lamby Pie! I'm down 18 lbs since New Year's ----slower than frozen molasses, but still plugging away and still happy to be a New year's loser!! Us New Yearsters have just passed the 100 day mark!! Hope you'll keep posting your progress---you certainly inspire us! Congratulations!!!

Any New Year's Atkineers still here? I went off for three months do explore another 'plan' but now I'm back because I'm worse off than ever and I feel horrible and it's painfully obvious that I need low-carb because of the Diabetes and the excess weight. I need to feel better soon. I did 3 months of Induction, then 3 months of this other thing, and I can honestly say that I really preferred the Induction for many, many reasons. I start in the morning, bright and early w/ breakfast. I also get to go shopping this weekend so we'll restock w/ lovely meats and veggies. I'll report back w/ my weight from tomorrow morning as well. Yikes!!

Took a bit to get back on track, but I think I'm there. Weighed in at 303 this morning. Sucks that I regained all that weight I lost w/ Atkins this year, and then some.... But, I should get it back off soon. I am glad to be back. I'm glad to see some progress on my blood sugar #'s coming down again. Hope to be back under 300 soon as well. 5 months, basically, left of this year. Where will I be at New Year's...??
