Happy dance!!!! I stared at the scale in disbelief this morning..lol

Whoops too big!!!! sorry folks.

Sundays would be a great day for this. Thanks for the tip.

Thank you so much for all the replies. I am taking in quite a bit of sodium. The major downfall I have found on Atkins is that really truly sticking to it, limits some of the snacks you can eat and it usually is loaded with sodium. I haven't measured with a tape and I think that is something I should start doing. Thank you…

I record everything here and I am sticking with MFP calorie limit of 1300. So maybe I shouldn't be doing both?

The darker hair and loss of weight,,, wow.. you look gorgeous.

You look great! Im at 199 but you look much toner!

Thank you. I've stalled out since this post. I almost feel as if I jinxed it .. lol

went out last night to a casino and a concert and I noticed a few nods in my direction. First time that's happened in a long time. I feel great. Despite my having a few chips and salsa, I stayed on track.

Thank you for understanding that I meant no offense, it just sounds like there is a lot more off her shoulders than body fat. A free spirit is also a great feeling. Again, GREAT JOB

Thank you~ with a houseful of kids, its been a challenge!

Good for you. You actually lost a lot more...How much did your ex weigh? LOL... congrats

You look great! And we started and headed the same direction! I started at 232 in the fall and now im 199. Im getting there.

Too bad I cant get the first one to work.... it really shows the tummy I sported around. darn.

Congrats. It's truly a great accomplishment.

Very Pretty

Great story. I love that you explained your motivation for your success as well. Keep it up!

You are looking amazing!

Hello. I am Shawnee/Cherokee and Irish. I started out Jan first of this year at 232 pounds. I barrel race and THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE! I have been on the Atkins plan and now I am 205. I have much more to go but its a journey worth taking. ok...sorry..pics not working

I needed this thread today. The scale is up two pounds this morning and the only thing I did wrong was a handful of chips, one bite of cake and lots of rum and diet cokes...lol. Ok.... time to be good again.

I am on the atkins diet. I eat up to 1500 cals a day and stay at or around 20 gm of carb. If you try this for the first two weeks you should see a big difference. There is a atkins site that has a lot of great information in it. It sounds hard as heck to stay at 20 gm but Im totally used to It now and really don't miss it.…

I am a barrel racer by hobby. My gut no longer touches the saddle horn. That is a big deal to a barrel racer. Those horns can leave nasty bruises.
