Anyone ever loose weight during TOM? I dropped another half pound.. 2.5 lbs since the day before thanksgiving!

I weighed in on Wednesday the day before thanksgiving at 177 and today I am 174.5. I started TOM on Tuesday and loosing weight when I thought I would be holding water weight.

5 lbs to goal!

Re: New YOU in the New Year's Challenge

Hi All,

I know the deadline is not too far off, but I'd like to join this Challenge. My name is Rae, I started Atkins Oct 24, 2008. My mom has been doing Atkins for years and has lost a lot of weight and kept it off so I decided to give it a try. My start weight was 187 lbs and I'm down to 174 lbs. I'm in OWL Rung 1 - 2.

I'd like to set my goal for New Years to be 169 lbs. Might be tricky as we are travelling to my boyfriend's parents house and mine for the holidays but I am committed.

Good work everyone on the losses you have reported in here.

Re: New YOU in the New Year's Challenge

Okay here we go, I'm on board as well seeing that New Year's is in a little less than three weeks away. I'm gonna aim for 20lbs which would be 5lbs a week. I'm pretty sure I can do this considering that my Anniversary is on New Year's eve. And I would really love to buy a little black dress ; )

Re: New YOU in the New Year's Challenge

Wow Scandalous....Best of luck to you and welcome. I so wish I could lose 20 pounds in three weeks.

Re: New YOU in the New Year's Challenge

Hey People!

I have dropped another pound for a total of 8 out of 15. I have 7 pounds to go until I reach my New years goal.
I could not have done it without you guys! I have been doing the ABS challenge as well as the squat challenge and the push up challenge. I measured myself and I was very excited. I have dropped 8 inches in my waist, 6 inches in my hips, 4 inches chest, 3 inches each thigh and 2 inches each arm. Thats 28 inches down.
I think its amazing. Thank you all for your help!

Re: New YOU in the New Year's Challenge

I am on cloud 8..

MY official weigh in day is today and I am down 4lbs this week! Whoose, whoose, whoosie! It must have been those salmon cakes .I started the day before thanksgiving at 177.5 and just weighed in at 173.5. Only 4lbs to my New Years goal of 169.5. I really didn't think I was going to get even close to goal because I had stalled out for 3 weeks at 177. And I was only losing .5 lbs at a time since induction. My body must have been holding on to some water getting ready for TOM. TOM is still here in full force but hopefully leaving soon.

I am down 13.5 lbs since I started Atkins on Oct 22nd and I have lost a total of 17 inches.

Just wanted to share in my news..
