    100 pounds gone forever!

    Woo! I have felt great when I reached every goal I have set, but this one is huge! I finally lost my 100th pound! From 273 to 173! Not much else to say other than you guys rock and so does Atkins.

    I keep a kind of picture log of my weight loss, you can see it at:

                      Re: 100 pounds gone forever!

                      Appreciate the feedback. It is hard to believe that I am almost done with my weight loss. I have had to lower my goal weight twice. I feel great at 173 but I think 165 is where I should be.

                      I found some home movies taken 1 month before I started my diet and it just made my jaw drop. It is different than those pictures of me at 273. One of the videos is me scarfing down pie telling my wife not to record me because I hated being filmed back then. It is great motivation to keep a record of how you looked in the past. Between that and you guys I will keep the weight off no problem. Though the biggest motivator for me is being able to run and play with my son without keeling over and dying.
