    50 pounds down

    I've done this before.

    This is the last time I will have lost this much weight.
    This now a WOL.

    I'm fifteen pounds from goal and am focused on getting there and achieving all my running goals for the year.

    I've gone up through all the rungs in OWL. Carbs around 40 per day. Still adding carbs and any new foods I may have missed along the way.

    Only 5 pounds 'til Pre-Maintenance. Never made it this far actually following the ENTIRE DANDR.

    I'm close enough now that I am getting PSYCHED UP to hang out in the Maintenance forum when I banish these last pounds.

    I'm in no hurry. If it takes a few months to lose these last pounds, OK.

        This pic was in 2005, I weighed 372.

        This was taken October 2007, I weigh 375.

        I was on atkins last year in the early fall and lost about 30 pounds. I obviously gained it back...but I know this is the right diet for me as it works very good. So I am back!

              Weigh to go, Rich!
              Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
              Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



              Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

                    Fantastic!! May I ask how long you have been running? I want to run in a 5K in Sept, but have not started running yet. My plan is to start running when I hit 170, my goal weight is 134. Any advice?

                    Goal # 1 Reduce my waist enough so fitting into a pair of jeans will not make me feel like a sausage with a tight string cinched around my bulging waist.
                    Goal # 2 Have my thighs become less familiar with one another. I am tired of them rubbing up against each other when I walk.
                    Goal # 3 Be able to see my back without those flabby rolls under my bra line, you know I could store things in those roll creases, a book to read, small toy etc
                    Goal # 4 Run a 5k in Sept. and continue this WOE.
