yummummum

yes yes yes. sexy is not a weight at all.

I am having success on Atkins also with a Paleo twist. I can not do anything artificial or processed. I don't eat as many carbs/fruit as paleo right now but will move toward that on maintenance. I do not think I will add in grains. I do SO much better off them. South Beach not nearly enough fat to keep me full.

I like that! Underwater salad! :-)

Incredible! Your hard work and discipline paid off. You look amazing!!!!! Very inspiring. xoxox

you look great!!! great job!

wow! you look great now, are you sure you have 40 to go? Don't get too skinny! You are hot now!

SAME HERE!

SAME HERE!

AH-MAZING!!!!!! WOW.

I am a new person since cutting out eat wheat! I guess I need to stay away from touching it too! I have heard of that book, but have not read it! I will look for it, thanks!!

This was me for years! I was a die hard weight watcher gal. People say it is unhealthy so I was afraid to try something so "radical". Clearly many people seem to lose great eating carbs, but for whatever reason I could not. I tried my hardest!!! Don't be afraid to try, it is a bit of a mindset change, but if you do it…

Where are you getting your info?

I have seen this happen to a few people I know actually which was part of the reason I was always "against" low carb and a die-hard weight watchers person. I definitely realize that I will NOT be able to return to the way I was eating. SInce I believe I actually have a gluten intolerance that will make it a little easier.…

It kinda makes me laugh that any low carb thread turns into a debate! No one really asked for your opinion on low carb! Just letting you know what my side effects were for the past three months! Feeling SASSY ::laugh:

Craving went away completely. It is almost odd to me, I used to have HUGE cravings! It took me a 2 weeks to really level off, no longer have "withdrawal". I really try to eat natural, clean, whole foods so I don't really do meal replacements that often. I do on occasion slug down a Jay Robb Protein whey shake after a…

I vary the amount of carbs I eat every day bc I don't obsess over them really any more. I high day would be 80 and a low day would be 25. I would say on average I do around 40 a day.

I think I definitely have a gluten intolerance. I was scoped for celiac which was negative but was miserable to cut out ALL sources of wheat on my own. But was eating all kinds of gluten free treats still and feeling bloated and depressed. I think for me it is the combo of sugar and carbs effecting me.

I generally eat around an average of 40 carbs a day. About every week or every other week I will have a higher day around 80-90. The first 1-2 weeks of cutting out sugar, wheat, and carbs was def tough and I wasn't sure I was doing something "good" for myself bc I felt so lousy!!! But I was assured by people here that it…

Wow, you people are so hard on yourself! hotness=state of mind. sexy is an attitude not a size.

10 all the way!

HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How did you get in my head :-)

You asked about the inner dialogue in my head. I focus on my KILLER new bod in my AWESOME new clothes and think.... remember??? Not that long ago I would eat that and feel like CRAP and I was bigger!!! (much) Do I want to feel bad? Do I want to back slide? Is it worth it? For me I am just NOT good at the moderation thing.…

This is a controversial subject but I could not lose much weight until after years of trying FINALLY cut out wheat all together and went low carb. Suddenly, I had energy to workout and the pounds have melted off me. I know it is not for every one but for me cutting out grains was huge. I eat huge amounts of veggies and…

Fruit is nature's candy. If you are losing while eating it then ...... I have cut out sugars while I get lean and lose fat. A typical day for me has around 15 gr. through veggies.

I have a big butt and boobs too! 34 DD ! Thankful for my tiny waist. Dangerous curves :-)

money kids

oh had never heard that about fat!! i eat a ton too! not afraid! helps me lose weight! I am eating chicken with skin as I write! Let's hope it helps "the girls" :)

OK, so I guess the 30 pounds left will come from all over! Truthfully, part of me was hoping that might be a little added bonus for all that kid rearing :-) slightly bigger boobs! haha

I weigh every day. I watch the scale go up and down. It can be frustrating BUT I was finding that when I did once a week I didn't always lose and that was worse! For some odd reason, I tend to lose on a 10 day- 2 week cycle. SO I will drop -2.5 pounds then hover around that weight for a while then drop again. I hated the…
