Thanks! They were $18 at Shopko. It's sort of frustrating because I know when I started Atkins, I was wearing clothes that were too small and that isn't what I'm judging my success on, but there are people that have lost this much weight that have dropped a few sizes at least. I suppose, if I think about it logically...I probably should have been wearing a 30/32 or larger at 356 and now I'm wearing 22/24 top and 24 jeans. I didn't try on the 22 jeans, but in hindsight I wish I had because who knows...maybe I'm overestimating the size I should be wearing (plus there were plenty of 22's in the clearance rack!). I actually know my measurements now but I have no idea what size I'm "supposed" to be in. Why can't they list the measurements on the tag? :)
I started on August 15th, 2005. I have been doing Atkins the whole time except for Christmas, Christmas eve, New Year's and New Year's eve. Both of those weekends I gained 7 lbs and lost it in 4-5 days. I have lost 9" off my bra band, 11" off my waist, and 10" off my hips so far. I wish I would've measured more than those three in the beginning, but oh well. At least I have pictures from the start because if I didn't, I don't know if I'd notice much of a change because mentally I always thought I looked smaller than I actually was (I know that now after seeing the starting pics). Thanks for your compliments! They are so encouraging! Andrea |

Thank you! Hopefully it won't be too much longer and the negative stuff will be in the background.
All I can say is that I'm not used to all of the attention from guys. I don't know if it's the physcial difference or a change in attitude, but I'm trying not to get a big head ;) Let's just say, I'm definitely enjoying being single! :) Thanks for being there for support Andrea |
Way to go Andrea. You look great.
