  • 50 pounds lost, old clothes fitting!

    Hi people!

    So I have been doing Atkins for 4 weeks tomorrow, and I have lost 17 pounds on it. And...as of yesterday, I have lost a total of 50 pounds, yippee! I initially started trying to lose at 340, and I started Atkins at 307, now I'm 290...still so far to go, but I can do it! I am so much more motivated now that I made it to a milestone I set for myself. I've NEVER EVER done that before, I think I'm really ready this time for a BIG change. I've just had it with being fat, it just isn't any fun... My next goal is 260.
    This afternoon, I went up to my closet and tried on a few clothes I had tucked away that haven't fit me in at least 3 years... and they all fit, some were even a little too loose! I'm going to give away all the clothes that I'm growing out of (or should I say shrinking out of...) so I don't have anything to fall back on!
    Life is good.

    - Kimberley

          Closet shopping is the best!!

          I loved going to my wardrobe and seeing what fitted me. Make sure you check regularly as I managed to miss out on several sizes on my way down from size 32 to my current 14 by not checking what fitted me!
          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!!
