    How much weight have you lost on Atkins?

    Any before and after pics? How long have you been on it? What exercise do you to? What keeps you motivated?

    Re: How much weight have you lost on Atkins?

    I've lost 87 lbs since January 2006.

    I also quit smoking in July 2006 and started running. I also lift weights and just started doing some yoga.

    Not regaining all the weight I've lost keeps me motivated. I NEVER want to go back to my "before" picture. NEVER.

        Pictures are in my siggy

        82lbs and 68 inches from May 2002-July 2004.

        I regained 20lbs in 2005 and removed that from August 2005-Dec 2005.

        Regained 19lbs in 2007 - Started 2 1/2 weeks ago and 7lbs of that is gone already.

        The goal is to keep all of it off this time for good.

        I'm in Slim in Six fanatic, but also do several other video programs (power 90, hip hop abs, turbo jam, slim series, the firm, watp, yoga booty ballet, project you, zumba), & I go in spurts with running - I can run, I just don't like it! - But always some combination of strength training and cardio.

        Motivation: That's easy. I have 3 kids I plan to be around for for a long, long time and have the energy to be the kind of mom I want to be. That and I really do enjoy having one instead of two.

            I've lost a total of 118 pounds, now. I'm not done yet--I've got 30 pounds to go. I haven't posted any pictures since I weighed 182 pounds, but here's a link to my before and during pictures. I plan to take pictures on Saturday, my Atkins anniversary. Before and During Pics

              I've lost 100 lbs. I've been unable to get below 175 so far but eventually I hope to get to 150.
              For exercise I prefer to run. I also do the eliptical. I've always slacked on weight training but that's going to be my main focus from here on out. I want to scultp my body.
              I also like to do aerobics (video's) and roller blade.
              My motivation is that I never want to look or feel as bad as I did. It's not so much looking fat for me, it was my self consiousness and self doubt. I never want to go back to hating myself again! Plus I want to look good for my hubby.
