:carrot: Yay! for you ! way to go!:cheer:
I know I've lost about 23 lbs and only one size. It must feel great!:)

Congratulations Rebel! :carrot: I love to read others' successes, it makes me think I can do it too.

Thanks Falon :hug: for the vote of confidence. I need that kind of support.

Thanks ladies! I tell my hubby how much I've lost, and he's just like, "oh, that's good". I really appreciate all the cheers!
Now that I'm paying attention to how comfortable I am in my clothes, I think I was probably just squeezing myself to death into those 18's because I didn't want to admit I was any bigger-maybe that's why it's taken me so long size-wise :)

I'm so proud of everyone, y'all are doing awesome!!! I totally backslid for a while there but I'm back on track and staying in there :)

today:

b: eggs
l: steak & salad

Way to go ladies. I think I'm finally getting out of my funk. My eating is back 100% on plan. I was at about 80% for a week or so. Lots of pounds to lose yet.

I am still doing this challenge. I weighed in yesterday at 182!! That is 8 pounds lost on my first week of Atkins! I am so motivated and excited. I am going to keep going - I just need 2.5 pounds a week to make my Fourth of July goal!! Woohoo!!

Thats great news mschris!
I'm sure you"ll make your mini goal. :bravo: :cheer:
keep up the good work!:carrot:

Great job MsChris! Way to go!!!!

Down to 148 with 3 lbs. to go to meet my goal by July 4th. Trying very hard but weight isn't cooperating here at the end. Losing just a couple lbs. a month now. Breakfast today was ham and cheese omelet, Lunch was a cheeseburger pattie and green beans, Dinner was chicken breasts and salad with ranch dressing. Did my 30 min's on Treadmill today. Will drink some more water. Good luck to everyone in meeting their goals for this challenge.

this challenge is closing in fast! I just started losing again this past week. I hope I keep it up. it's going to be tough to make this goal! I am cutting back on carbs a bit more and upping the exercise! I want so much to make this! July 7 is my daughters birthday and I told her if I make my mini goal I will sahre in her birthday cake. ( a small piece) But I have to make it!
How is everyone else doing? I just updated my ticker so as of today that's it!

I hate to say it, but I am not doing so well. My eating is sporadic, and I have not been exercising. I am still at 181. I am going to have to kick it into gear and fast if I am goind to make my goal.

Well, I hate to say that I'm not doing so well and I AM eating OP like a good girl!
My weight is finally moving again after a 4 wek stall but we now have 16 days til the end of this challenge and 8 pounds to lose! That's about 4 pounds a week. I lost 3 this week really pushing myself. I'm not sure how I can give myself an extra boost. I think I might have to just behappy if I make it to the 150"s. but I'll fight to the end!

I am inching closer again. 2 pounds down for last week, which is ok considering. It does not look like I will make goal :( , but I am not giving up yet. I have 9 pounds to go.

since I've been offline I've just been eating whatever looks good and I'm was up to 169 this morning :( I am starting back right this second though. Goes to show that I just cannot live without you all!!!

OK Lets go! A lot of us have taken this challenge. How did you all do?

Unfortunately I'll have to admit defeat! When my goal of 155 didn't seem like it was going to happen I set my mind toaccepting 159 (figuring just to be out of the 160's would be great) Well, I weighed in at 162 this morning.
Not at all happy with thatand the worse part is that it isn't becaue I cheated because I have been really good. It's just the way I've been losing.

So I hope I can read some success stories here today!
Congratulations to those of you who made it and congratulations to those of you who didn't, just for trying!
