Wow! Our stats are amazingly similar! (Except I'm old enough to be your mom )

About the tummy thing... while I think that I do look good in clothes now, I do still have a jelly-belly. I have 6 pounds left until I reach goal, and I think that most of those pounds are in my belly.

When I started Atkins at 215 pounds, and even after I had lost some weight, I never dared dream that I could ever actually weigh under 140 pounds. I am a believer now!

I don't often find people with stats so similar to mine because I'm short... I'm glad we're in this challenge together.

I'm going to include a couple of pics here that I have posted elsewhere on the board, in hopes that it may inspire you. I weighed more than 215 here, but I don't know how much... I was avoiding the scale then.

Okay !! Talking to my hubby on the phone and he's about to start cooking BBQ Ribs. After getting off the phone I had to drop mom at the grocery store and as I'm sitting in the parking lot... Emma's voice hits me... (telling Cubby and Desparate) that she could have used low carb. Not bad all the way here. So called hubby back and asked what the carb / sugar counts were... 17g carbs and 16g sugar. So I went into the grocery store and found CHUBBY's at 5g carbs and 4g sugar. Much better. THANK YOU EMMA!!!


Angel: I have the same problem you have. I look like I looked when I was about 6/7 months pregnant. Losing inches, however, not very quickly there. I told people I was giving birth to my twin and they better watch out.

Mitzi: You are a wonderful inspiration to everybody and anybody that see's your progress...

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Howdy! I'm way behind reading here. My dumb scale is up but my inches down. Go figure. LOL

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

I'm down another .4 so now a total of 2 lbs ............ ugh so slow going ....... I know it's because I can't do much excercise right now and that should change soon I hope I didn't make too much of a goal .........I am trying very hard to keep my goals realistic and reachable but of course not too easily reached! LOL fun balance to figure out!


I'm gonna keep on keeping on

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Finally weighed in this week and I have stalled!! Not sure what I'm doing wrong but really didn't lose very much down .6 this week for an even 287.

I am still eating the same things and drinking a minimum of 10 glasses of water plus... So going to write everything down and re evaluate it and hopefully get back on track

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

weighed in and lost nothing. TOM is coming any day now, so I'm not really worried about it.

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Well I weighed in earlier this week and was SHOCKED at the # - so I'm not reporting it - I'm leaving my ticker & stats just as they are because I know that TOM and heavy clothing had something to do with it. I'll weigh in again next week!

I'm very impressed with how everyone else is doing!

Re: *~Christmas Challenge~*

Too scared to get on the scale after being on vacation in London for a week and then coming home to the fire disaster/evacuation etc... so far today I ate Mup for breakfast and 2 eggs for lunch. Getting back on track... may weigh tomorrow if I think it will be better... lol!
