Re: No Tricks, Only Treats Challenge: Look BOO-tiful by Halloween!!!

Good Sunday Morning, All

I'm very happy to read the good news here. Liz, it's great that you were able to lose weight during the reunion activities. While a lot of fun, I'm sure that it is a relief for it to be over. Well done.

Yay, Caryl, on the 2 pounds loss! I love the weeks when I can pull that off.

Julie! Ah, this is really awesome. You have been due this for a while now, and I think it is a sign that you will start seeing movement on the scale again. Enjoy!

My weigh-in was this morning. Never considered for a moment to put it off because of TOM... way too nosey to do that. Down a pound, and I am happy with that. It did finally change the 2nd number in my weight, and we all know what a boost that can be, so I'll take it. Because TOM is in the picture and I lost 1 pound instead of 2, I am going to continue to eliminate cottage cheese and greek yogurt until next Sunday's weigh in. I want to see if I can pull off a 2 pound loss again when TOM is not around. I do miss the cottage cheese and yogurt very much, but I'm so close now that I know I can stay away from them until Pre-Maintenance if I have to. If I only lose 1 pound next week, I think I am going to add one of them back and see what happens.

Have an excellent day, Everyone

Hi, I know the start day is Sept 3rd, but I was kinda hoping to jump in. I just started induction yesterday and am hoping to lose 10 pounds by Halloween. I think it's a good goal being that you normally lose a good bit during induction. Well, my starting weight is 300lbs.

Re: No Tricks, Only Treats Challenge: Look BOO-tiful by Halloween!!!

ooh, ooh me! me!
Startin kinda late since its the 16 already, but todays my first day of induction.
Ugh my dad just came home with -CHINESE FOOD- and is like "hey I brought home dinner" He knows i'm on atkins! oye. I think he's trying to sabatoge me. he wants me to eat the shrimp he brought, at least the non-fried ones. But I dont want to touch them though, I dont know what they're cooked or marinated in!

I think i'll put my Goal by Halloween to about 13 lbs, thats around 2 lbs a week, which is what my other goals in my siggy are based on.


I'll check back in in a few days and let y'all know just how many lbs have slid off me!

2 out of 5 are gone for me!

My scale's home (thanks to hubby hiding it in the garage making me think he took it away from the house)! I weighed in at 192.0 this morning....I'm a happy kid!

Re: No Tricks, Only Treats Challenge: Look BOO-tiful by Halloween!!!

3.6 out of 10 for me, Jules

Re: No Tricks, Only Treats Challenge: Look BOO-tiful by Halloween!!!

APPLE! Good going, girl!! Outstanding way to start the day.

Kibskix, way to go on skipping the Chinese food. Gosh, I LOVE that stuff... but I let a single trip to a Chinese restaurant on my first time around on Atkins turn into a month long binge... I avoid it like crazy now.

Stefanie... 3.6 pounds is a nice chunk of weight! Keep it up.

See ya!

Re: No Tricks, Only Treats Challenge: Look BOO-tiful by Halloween!!!

Stefanie...3.6 pounds is SUPER! Keep up the good work!

Welcome Amy and Kibskix...good going Kib on not eating any of the Chinese food. I love the stuff myself, but you are right, what is it cooked in, or marinated in?
