Hi all. I have been kinda busy (I work retail) and haven't posted much but I been checking in. I just want you guys to know I chuggin along. I was hoping I could be under 200 by my company Christmas party or Christmas itself. Today I got on the scale and I was 205. Can you belive it 205, I still remember the end of July when i thought doing anything about my weight was impossible. I also can squeeze (with comfort) in my size 12. They are tight and Im not really a 12 yet, but I can zip and sit in them, which means alot. With only 5 pounds standming between me and my Christmas wish goal Im moving onward and upward (or downward) :0) As always I think God for his love and support and directing me to Atkins and this site. And I thank God for you guys each and every one, you will never know how many times I have come here to lift myself up when Im feeling down.

If God is for me, who can be againist me?

July 21, 2003 - 246.7/205/145 or 165 (we will see)

Hi, Hartensia!

Glad to be hearing from you! Sounds as if you're doing very well, indeed!

Whether or not you make your exact deadline for 200, you're on a course to get there and beyond that, on your body's individual schedule.

Good for you!
