Frustrated
I have been on Atkins over a month and I feel like I have lost weight. Problem is I don't know what I weighed to start with. I just bought a scale and I am much more then I thought I was! Now I feel frustrated and annoyed with myself.

Re: Frustrated
More importantly, Annie...how are your clothes fitting? Scales can be a dieters nightmare. If mine are to be believed. I've only lost 2 pounds in the last 4 months, yet my thighs are shrinking! Measure prime areas, bust, chest, arms, waist, stomach, hips, thighs....and track them once a month.
Welcome to ADBB and come join us in the Century Club for those with 100+ pounds to lose! -

Re: Frustrated
And SOON those clothes won't fit at all!! Let me strongly encourage you to measure. It's sooooooo important to have a number you can feel great about and the tape measure is kinder than the scale! I wish I had measured everything in the beginning but I didn't...just the waist, hips, bust. I learned when I joined the 6 week exercise challenge to measure almost everything. Here's a thread that gives some guidance on where to measure. I wish I had known it existed before I started!! I try to measure every Sunday morning. You will lose inches before pounds after you've been with this WOE for awhile. It sounds like you're doing great. Don't let that scale bring you down!!Originally posted by annie09 View Post
The picture that accompanies the thread doesn't seem to work anymore but hopefully this will help!Comment
