Talking 30 lbs! Yay!


Who else is about half way through their journey?? Or who else has been there recently, or will be there soon?

Hehe Acchand is apparently a woman of few words (unlike moi ). I guess the title of the post says it all!

Bravo!!! You're making grand progress!

Hey 30 pounds is great! I've hit 40 if you go from my highest weight until now. If you only go by my December weight, I'm down 27.5. Almost 30. I can't wait until I reach 232, then I will be back down to my 50 pounds off mark that I hit after starting Atkins in 2000.

But it is going to take some time. I slipped a bit recently and need to get strict with myself again and soon.

But I am proud of YOU! 30 pounds is wonderfuL! What are you going to do for an encore? Just kidding. 30 is great. I've been setting baby step goals and aiming for them. 3 or 4 pounds at a time. Scale was up a bit today, but it will be down soon. I'm craving all kinds of things I shouldn't have, but want today. I guess that is because of my little slips lately. If I'm strict with myself and stay on Atkins, I don't get weak and have to deal with cravings like this. It is only when I mess up that I'm tempted by further mess ups.

I had some wine tonight and it has made me sleepy. Need my bed.

Anyway congratulations we are all proud of you here!

This is my very first reply...halfway there is an awesome feeling, I'm so proud of you for doing it. I'm finding that despite increasing my efforts, my weight loss is slowing down, which is frustrating but not entirely suprising. Just gotta keep on going. Getting closer every week.

Thanks to all of those who gave congrats, and congrats are due to all of you who are making progress as well. I am honored to get the your first post, Jessibug. <bows> and now for my encore... <takes a HUGE box of cookies out and smashes it with a rubber mallet - then opens the box and pours the crumbs out the window for the birds> Ta Da! Thank you, thank you! I'll be here all week!
