Hey guys, its me again! I posted last week in the main forum and someone suggested that I introduce myself here as well.
Okay, my name is Amanda, I am 25 years old, 5'6, started Atkins on April 17th, 2005 and, my SW was 266, my current weight 255, my goal weight is 145...but I will be happy with 155.
Anyway, this coming Sunday--->May 1st will be my last day for induction. I do have a question though...when is the best time to weight..in the am or pm? My weight in the am is 253.5 and my pm weight is 255.5. So, I am not sure which one to go by. One of the reasons I ask is because my church ladies and I have started a Christian Weight Loss Challenge and we weigh in the evenings. So, for that, I am going by my evening weight. If the am weight is the best, then woo hoo :icondance ...I have lost 12.5 pounds.
I have stuggled with my weight since I was in 4th grade and I am ready to find that skinny person in me, cause I know she is in there...lol! Last year I almost made the biggest mistake of my life..I almost had Gastric Bypass Surgery, but changed my mind the night before my operation. I kept asking God for some guidance with this issue and I was walking around my house (outside) praying, and then all of the sudden it became so clear to me that I could do this without having to eat like a bird. It took me until April of this year to finally start the new way of eating but I am here now for the long haul!
So, again, thanks to you all for soooo much inspiration and advice. You are my new family in a sence!
