Talking OMG!!!!!!!!!! :great:


Ok, I'm only a month (yesterday) into Atkins. And since I don't have a measuring tape... this was the biggest reavelation!!!!

I bought a cute pair of capris like 4 yrs ago, with the thought " Oh, I just need to loose a couple pounds and those will look cute, they are on sale too!" Needless to say... I havent... UNTILL NOW... lost those "Couple pounds". My first realization that they might fit now... yesterday the slacks I had on for work were barely hanging on my hips!!!!! I could slide them on and off w/o unbuttoning or unzipping them!!! And they were tight in the waistband 2 mos before!!!!

Total weightloss so far is only 19#'s... but this is SUCH a big motivator now!!!!


Just wanted to share

That is the best feeling in the world!... of course right next to trying on clothes and find out you skipped some sizes! LOL


Great job! Keep it up!

You say ONLY 19 lbs.. Only??? Common, that is great! 19 Lbs in a month is not only a great start but a healthy one. You don't want to lost too much too fast. It takes a horible effect on your organs. As nice as it would be to skip carbs for a few days and wake up at your goal, you know that it would be bad for you for the long term. You are doing great. Congrats!
