Hi all. I know if haven't been lurking around for a while but I have not dropped Atkins at all. In fact I am so proud of myself for never even cheating. Today is my one year anniversary on Atkins. I think I have done okay. I would have loved to have lost at least 7 more lbs and probably could have if I had revisited induction but didn't want to go there. LOL
Somedays I get discouraged and feel like I'm having a chunky monkey day but then I have to look back at where I started and I feel better.
Anyway, I just wanted to post a few stats to let ya know how I am doing.
I still have a few more pounds to go and a LOT more inches (some of which I am hoping to take care of surgically with a tummy tuck) but I am plugging right along.
Beginning weight 221
Current weight 147
Total weight loss 74 lbs
Total inches lost 52.5
Beginning Size (who knows it was all elastic XL around a 20 I think)
Current Size ( can wear 6 - 8 - some 10's)
I'm a more confident person. More outgoing and not so shy. I am doing things now I would never have dreamed of when I was so much heavier. I am definitely more fit. I exercise but not quite as regularly as I should probably. But I can now jog 3 miles without stopping, do 40 push ups, 400 crunches in one session and not throw up and I love to do weight lifting.
Well, that's me for this last year. I'm in a much better place than I was a year ago for sure!
Thanks to you all for your support and many answers when I first started. I know I drove some of you nuts! ( oh and I know those aren't allowed on induction! LOL)
