Wow what a drop Happy dance!

[t0ri08311]

This Sunday will be my third week of induction. I try my best to only weigh in on Sunday mornings. For some reason today I noticed I felt smaller in my tight night pants that seemed to be hanging off my butt and thighs. So I thought hmm I never noticed them to stretch b4 while I wore them and decided I would weigh myself down to 252 woo thats 17 pounds in less than 3 weeks. and 22 pounds in less than 4 weeks. A week before I started Low carb I Decided instead of stopping eveything all at once cold turkey Like I did back in 2003 Id start a week b4 and drop off all my sugary drinks colas kool aids and sweet teas. I actually think it did help Cause when i started Low carb the following week I had none of the low carb flu Back in 2003 I had it BAD!. I know when you have more weight to lose it will come off faster at first but non the less Im happy about the drop .My cousin is getting married on March the 14th if I drop off some more perhaps i can reward myself with something new to wear to her wedding. Though if i get back in the lower 200 range I will have plenty of clothes to wear from about a size 16 to a size 9. I always like to reward myself with clothes ( althought at my current weight seems all clothes are polyester with floral print my my how nice it will be to get back in clothes that are stylish!!) or having my hair or nails done this past Saturday i went with my sister and Neice and we had a spa pedicure it was nice it had been a while since i had one. Lets be honest its been a while since i been out of my house without my kids and my twice a month walmart grocery shopping doesnt count( althought my husband thinks it should since im gone 3 hours ugh men).

Tori, those are awesome stats! Congratulations!

And you were very smart to stop the sugary drinks ahead of time to minimize induction flu. I would never have thought of that.

Do I ever know how that feels!!!

Having your hair and nails done, a pedicure.... planning for new clothes. WOW!!! I wish some of that would rub off onto me!!!

Best of luck at getting down into that new size by March 14. And do post pictures then!

Excellent! You're doing great! I agree, that was a good idea to stop all the sugary drinks before starting the induction. Glad you bypassed induction flu!
