For me it was putting on my favorite jean skirt one day and I could hardly zip it up. Now, this is a skirt that has always (even when I "felt fat") ALWAYS fit, even felt a little loose sometimes. I was so horrified. The next morning I weighed myself and got another shocker; I'd put on close to 20 pounds in the last 7 to 8 months.
I did Atkins before and it worked so well, but we moved and I let it go. So here I am, determined to get down and STAY down!
