    Perhaps, then, we should be calling you "Smug Tony"?

    I'm stopping by to introduce myself around, being new to the forum as well. I would love to hear more about your music and experiences "living the life".

    As for your great success, Good for you!!! You have all the reason in the world to feel that way! I, too, am feeling very pleased with myself lately, and it's great to have a place to come and feel encouraged every step of the way.

    "Keep on keepin' on!" I look forward to following your progress!

      Nothanks .. hiya .. and thanks for your message.
      Not sure what yiou mean by living the life .. as an Atkins dieter or as a musician.
      The weight loss is slowing down now but it's still coming off and I'm able to wear clothes that I couldn't 3 weeks ago which is very encouraging.

      No beer in 3 weeks for me! .. Neither bread, spuds, rice, pasta, sweets, choc, cakes all that stuff .. an achivement in itself.
      Start weight 233 lbs .. 16 st 9 lbs ..105.8 kg (eek!!)
      .... looking to lose at least 2 stone .. (28 lbs .. for the Americans )

                        LOL!, Does that mean typically you don't wear a shirt?

                        Are you impressed with yourself and no beer? Remember one of your first posts was about the marvelous Beer in Prague! I've barely heard a word about beer since. You're doing very well!

                            Hey... I bet you looked hot, with the temperatures we've been having here in Europe!! (j/k...I'm sure you looked marvellous, for real).

                            Isn't it so worth it? Keep on plugging away! Beer isn't too far away... just a few rungs of a ladder...

                              really Sally .. I can have beer .. when ???
                              Also how would Dr Atkins feel if I started adding milk to my tea at some point soon?
                              does said tea have to be de-caff?

                              Silly the shirt reference was me trying (in vain it seems) to crack a joke. Yes I am surprised by my lack of beer .. it is truly wonderful here and my local barman is very surprised by my resolve.

                              Donna it feels fab .. I've got out some clothes which are 2inches in the waist down from where I am now .. my next goal is to fit comfortably in them.
                              I didn't measure myself before I started the diet, but I 'd guess that I was 41/42 ins in the waist.
                              Once again ladies thnx for your support .. it's great to get a virtual pat on the back

                                You can have cream already! Heavy cream has 1 carb per ounce, just be sure to add it to your totals. Also, keep in mind that heavy cream is lowest in carbs and then half/half is more, milk even more and fat free milk even more! So, moral of the story is, use the good stuff!

                                I got the joke, btw, that was me trying to be funny (in vain!)
