Congrats to you Jake. A job well done. It shows that not cheating does pay off. If I remember correct you dont exercise much, have you been able to do more now since you are consistantly losing weight every week?
I have had backaches all my life and now since I walk and have lost over 50lbs, I rarely have a backache.
Keep up the good job and keep inspiring others.

You are like the Atkins poster boy! Discipline and perseverence paying off over time. Your calm approach is what makes you an inspiration to others.

Great work!

That's fabulous, Jake. I'm so happy for you. Just think - by Christmas you can be at your goal weight! What a wonderful present.

You've been doing so well, and now all your dedication is paying off. No cheating definitely works!

Thanks Bead; Imagine...ME...a "poster boy"...LOL!

Kaillaen: LOVE your newer pic, by the way. Meant to PM you about it! HOT baby...HOT!

Stacy:
I do not exercise at all. Not yet anyway....My Doc says maybe after another 20 pounds I can begin!

I walk as much as I can...my work is quite abit of exercise at times...I have plenty of muscle mass anyway so that is no problem...just need to tone-up and can;t wait to get to it!

I feel ALOT better as far as my legs/knees...back...and YES, I do ALOT more then I used to and am much more "mobile"!

Congrats on YOUR 50 lbs!!!!
Best always;
Happy Jake

great job,
I too have lost 35 lbs started may 1st.

Way to stick with it.

I agree once i stopped thinking diet and started thinking WOE it is so much easier to not plan cheat days as how can u cheat if it is a WOL..

You can only cheat on a diet...

Keep it up i too am hoping for an additional 50 lbs by christmas but if i dont make it oh well only thing I can guarantee is that i will be eating LC..


once again congrats and keep it up

Awesome Jake!!

Your refusal to quit those couple of weeks where you didn't lose any weight was very inspiring- so was your refusal to eat sugar alcohols even in the face of... you know

I have been happy to see the scale moving again for you lately- Way To GO!
