Before Atkins, you would not reveal your weight for love nor money - now you happily tell everyone and their dog
You're slightly amused that your breath is smelly, meaning your diet is working!
Your dh goes from "maybe you could lose a few pounds" to 'ok enough, when you gonna stop"?
You are the only person who does a happy dance when FINALLY fitting into a size 18
Your manager brings in a box of hot krispy kremes and you think 'yuck, who wants all that sugar, why didn't you bring bacon instead'
You're the only person at the conference who has a ziploc bag full of ham cooling in her hotel room ice bucket!
You say "I need more fat" and people just LOOK at you
Squeezing into a pair of jeans that you had to lie down to zip up is a miracle - because you haven't been this size in over 3 years!!! Now if you could just breathe, life would be perfect. Maybe next week?
You pee every 5 minutes
You could not stand those perky morning people before Atkins, but now you ARE a perky morning person.
You get excited when veggies are on sale
You happily discuss your bowel habits with an entire bulletin board
You know what fat goggles are.
