The whoosh fairy came last night - down 10 lbs!!!!
The whoosh fairy came last night and took 3 lbs away with her, while I slept.
I can't believe it! The scale has stayed 184 for a week. I Started Atkins on Oct. 20th at 191lbs and have stayed on induction. This morning I was 181lbs!! I got off + on 4 times to be sure the scale was right. So- I lost 10 lbs in a month!!! All those years doing low fat/no fat diets, and getting nowhere - thinking I had a thyroid problem the Dr. wasn't picking up on. I have re-newed hope + enthusiasm now!! Oh- I started "Curves" the same time as I started Atkins, and was re-measured yesterday. I have lost 8.50 Inches in one month!! People tell me they can see my weightloss in my face, but I have the measurements to prove otherwise. I lost 1.50 off of each thigh, waist + abs etc. You all have to hang in there - I now have had my first whoosh - I didn't do anything differently- It really is magical!! |
Congratulations!!!! That's an awesome feeling! Great job!
|
I think the whoosh fairy went in the wrong direction. I know I asked her to come to my house.
Great Job on the weight loss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
Congratulations......u should be real proud of yourself.
|
Terrific job! I love the whoosh fairy....I wish she would re-visit me soon!
|
Great Job!!
I joined Curves 2.5 months ago and feel so much more fit. I won our local Curves Challenge for the month of October. It is so encouraging to see success right away and see that this way of eatting can make a difference. Way to Go! Kathy |
Congratulations! Great Job!...and no sacrifice.
:yay: EVE |
Thanks for posting your success. It's the reason I come to this site before I leave for work and when I get home. My husband even comes in to read the paper so we can be in the same room.
You give me so much encouragement. I know I too can have a fairy visit me!!!! |
Great Job!! I hope the fairy visits me soon.
|
Congratulations! SUPER JOB!!!!
(But, could you please give her a break now !!!! so she visit the rest of us poor souls!) |
Thanks everyone!
Thanks for sharing my excitement with me. I love the way we are so supportive of of each other. I honestly could not do this without you all. Checking this board everyday keeps me motivated. I feel like I am getting addicted to this place. Oh- by the way - The damned scale has gone up 2 lbs today! The hazards of weighing everyday. I know - I know - Still, 3 steps foreward, and 2 steps backward - is still going forward, right? I am still encouraged, and even more determined to get it back to yesterday's weight. I'm going to go to Curves this morning, for starters. Good luck to you all! |
Congrats' keep up the good work. I've lost 7 pounds this week and I can't wait to lose more.
Hopefully the Fairy will come visit me every week taking away at least 2 pounds a week. Take care, Lily |
Yeah !!! I too had a visit this week and it feels great .. when you are having a hard week this helps.
|
Congrats!
[FONT=Georgia][SIZE=6][COLOR=DarkOrange]Hey sunny! Congratulations! I had a visit myself! down three pounds this morning! Isn't it cool? I myself was getting discouraged.. I could see the inches dropping but not the weight.. I love this woe and this couldn't have come at a better time.. right before the evil holiday of Thanksgiving.. Now I will have even more motivation to pass up on the carb fest.
