After Almost 16 Month's On Atkins Iam Finally Coming Into My Own !!!
When I started Atkins almost 16 months ago I was a whopping 230 pounds, very sick (health wise), sad & depressed !!!
I don't measure my body like alot of other's do, but going by my clothes I have been losing a lot of inches lately more than pounds !!!
To date I have very happly lost 65 pounds, which may be a slow loss for some but due to having Lupus I have a very slow metablolism.
I now no longer take med's for my Type II Diabetes or High Blood Pressure, only 1 Anti Depressent instead of 2 & my Inhailer is only as needed instead of 2 types 2 to 3 times daily !!!
I even have had to go down 2 inches smaller in my upper under garments which has not happened in a very long time !!!
Iam now starting to admit to myself & others that I can see all of my hard work & feel really good about it !!!
When I picked~up my new glasses yesterday I was very nerverous, eventhough I had spent a long time picking them out last week !!!
Iam very happy with this pair they DO make me feel pretty & that is RARE for me feel let alone to say !!!
With Spring upon us & Summer on the way this is the 1st year in a very long, long time that Iam not dreading wearing shorts & tanks tops !!!
That will be a very, very AWESOME feeling this year !!! YEA & WHOO HOO
Also last year with my 5y/o Granddaughter when she would ask me to push her on the swing. After a few pushes I was tooo tired & out of breath to keep going & she would get up set with me. The tree swing is a good walk down our property by the water. I didn't even want to walk there & back up the small grade in the ground each time !!!
Well this spring we have a new Trampoline I jump on & push her on the swing all in the same afternoon several days per week !!!
Even with my Lupus "65 pounds lighter" I still have some discomfort afterwards but Iam able to spend the quality time with my special little Lady with No More Dispointments !!!
Thanks for letting me share once again, I could not of gotten this far without this AWESOME
Forum & all of the GREAT Folks here !!!
