    well ive had to get dressed up today and as my weight has stayed the same and i actually had put on a pound yesterday,i was dreading putting my smart trousers on,well omg they are too big yessssssssss and as ive got big ankles i pulled out my ankle boots which i could never do the zip up fully and they have zipped all the way.

    so thanks again for listening as im in heaven today and when i get home from work im going to try loads of clothes i couldnt get into.

            Great job done so far

            Just you wait till you start to see collarbones

                Congrats on your achievement! As for the scales, Ive considered cutting back to weighing twice a month; but not sure I can stay away!! lol I wish you luck in continued success! You are doing great.

                  Woo Woo moomoomu! Looks like our bodies have much in common! Inches lost but no show on the scales starting my 5th week on the diet! I ran out and did my 45 min tan yesterday and today behind our privacy fence, I have a Tback tan line showing today! GASP! Well I had to celebrate my drop from 18s to 15/16, 16 and a 14 (which really makes you wonder about these designers and sizing!)!

                  I have jumped on the stupid scale atleast 3 times today just hopeing it would budge!

                    hi blonde,

                    well im guessing now as ive just weighed and im down nearly half a stone,so when i stall the inches fall off then the pounds,either way im in absolute heaven with this diet. i am now going to update my tracker wooohoooooo.

                      Im sooo happy for you moomoomu! Do you x off the days on your calendar? I do, it helps me stay commited. The biggest thing for me though are those keto strips and turning purple. As long as I see that purple I know that no matter what the stupid scales say, I'm burning fat! My inches burn off even as I sleep! The magic of Atkins! WOW! Science at its best!

                        yes the ketosis strips are my best friend and im just like you when i see that they are pink or purple i know im a walking fat burning machine lol.

                        it is an amazing diet and im determined to do it as on other diet i was hungry and i missed fat,so i wish id done this years ago.

                        i cant stop smiling and thankyou for listening blonde,its good to see someone roughly on the same wavelength as myself.
