  • Re: Lose the Love Handles Picture Challenge

    I haven't tried mine on. I don't dare. My loss has seemed to be from the oddest places.
    Are we supposed to be posting pics for the half-way through the challenge?





    290 lbs. on 11/02/07 Goal: 145 lbs. or size 14 whichever comes first!

      I don't think so. I was just so excited that I had to post.

          Thanks!! Before Atkins I really thought my thyroid was going to totally ruin my life (kept gaining and gaining). I'm grateful to have gone back to Atkins and to have found this board (and to have met awesome people like you).

            Thank you I love this board too. Gives me something to do besides eating!! I had no internet the first time around, and no one else that I knew doing Atkins. The 2nd time, I had the internet, but misused it------finding sites where to buy "low carb crap" for lack of better terminology. Third times a charm

              Well I'm excited - I have a belt which I now HAVE to wear to keep pants on that were tight before. So far everyone has commented that I have lost weight who hasn't seen my in awhile (besides my in-laws but honestly they can be so out of it they don't count).

              I'll probably try the jeans on in another week

                  You just wait until you get in trouble with Disco for trying on your challenge britches early! We all got in trouble last challenge. We all got sent to time out.

                  Cat--you look great! You've still got 52 days until the end of the challenge, so those jeans will be falling off by then. You'll have to wear suspenders to keep them up while taking the pictures.

                      Why did you get in trouble? Isn't this about progress? I guess I can delete the prior email then.

                        I think she is yanking our chain, Cat. After all, what kind of trouble can a forum challenger be

                          'Cause we weren't supposed to try on our challenge clothes until after the Thanksgiving meal. Some of us failed to read that little rule and we started posting about being able to get our stuff on. It was all in good fun, 'cause Disco gave us a lot of grief, and we pretended to be afraid of her. Well, the rest pretended, I'm really sceered of her! (j/k) It made that challenge really fun!

                          Don't delete your pics!

                            Catrenia,

                            The new photos look great, you are doing such a fantastic job! I'm hoping my shirt will fit once the challenge is over.

                            What I know:
                            1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
                            2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
                            3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
                            4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

                              Thank you Bluebelt! Don't worry, at the rate you're going, your shirt will be hanging off of you.
