    You're never going to believe this but...

    I'm new!

    I'm Kelly. I'm 28 from Alabama. I am going to lose 130. That's a whole other person BUT I'm glad to soon be rid of that person. I don't really like her!

    I started Atkins on September, 8th and have so far lost about 5 lbs more or less. Though pounds lost is a major goal, I can't help but feel more excited about the way my body feels, my clothes fit and my over all health! More importantly I have been without Mt Dew for 10 days! That's the longest ever!

    Anyway, I flubbed a little today but it's all cool. I stopped myself and I'm back on track right now (instead of tomorrow).

    I'm just starting to look around all the awesomeness that ADBB has to offer. Any board with a Hello Kitty emoticon can't be bad!

      Hi Kelly, Dr. Pepper was my addiction.....got up in the morining and had a Dr Pepper, drank a six pack a day without thinking twice and now....17 days DP Free!

      I have a whole person to lose too! I call mine "Hefty Honey" and I will be very excited when she is gone! I would love to wear a dress again where people's first reaction wasn't...."I wonder where she got that tablecloth?"

      Welcome, there are some really nice people here who are super helpful.

        Or automatically assume I got it at Lane Bryant.

                I have a whole list of clothes that I want from Neiman Marcus. I have one of those "save your shopping cart" things full of size 6 and 8 clothes. Every once in a while I get an email from NM asking why I haven't purchased anything from the shopping cart.....I am tempted to send them back an email explaining that at the moment, I would need six outfits, one for each arm and leg and one to cover the front and back....not the exact look that Valentino had in mind I am sure.

                I did see in the Anne Harvey (a European big gal store) that next season fat people should wear circle skirts with a cinched waist. Humm lets see, nothing like an elastic belt around my size 44 waist and yards and yards of billowy material to make a "Hefty Honey" like me look svelte.

                It reminds me of a comedian (I can't remember which one) who said that she would never wear Guess Jeans for fear that people walking behind her would...."I don't know 280? 325?"

                  LOL! I work for a t-shirt company designing shirts on these tiny tiny juniors shirts. It would fit on my arm.

                    Good luck kelly. I too miss Mt Dew. I have been on the diet for 5 days and only drinking water.
