I lost 1 lbs and am REALLY happy about it . Really! I've been stalled for about 3 weeks. This past week, I cut out all caffeine and aspartame. I just read in a post that Splenda can stall too. Some people are using Stevia instead. I'm going to try no Splenda and see if I lose more.

Besides I feel fantastic and people at work are noticing that I'm losing. Have a great week #2. I know I will

Congrats Lisa!

Weight and or/size at start of lc plan 255 - size 22/24 short
Current weight and/or size 251 - size 22/24 short
Goal weight and/or size 200 - size 16-18

My March Goals are as follows: Lose 10 pounds, drink a minimum of 64 ounces of water a day, and do some form of exercise at least 3 times a week. This is a great idea!

Challenge Starting Weight:251
Todays Weight:249
Pounds lost: 2

I don't know what my measurements were at the start of the challenge, but since I started LC I've lost 2 inches off my waist. I haven't measured everything else.

Goals met so far: 1/5 of my pound goal gone! Meeting the minimum requirements of water a day, and then some, and twice this week I've been in the garden.

yay!

WTG Gladehaven!!!

no change in inches but down 2 pounds...every little bit helps

When I started on 1/1, I hoped by a 25 lb loss by the end of the first quarter...in other words, a 25% loss to 220...Looks like I might have been a little optimistic but a 4 week stall didn't help!
We shall see

Anyway, I remind myself that Atkins is NOT a quick weight loss diet, but a life long plan for people who don't metabolize carbohydrates properly. I like the food and I CAN DO THIS!

oh yes, I did take at least a mile walk everyday
Sue

Just wanted to say thank you for your encouragement. You're awesome!

Oh NO!!!! I forgot today was friday so I did not weigh or measure myself. I will do first thing in the am and post. Sorry guys!!!!

Hey Challenge buddies!

Is it really better to weigh myself in the AM? I forgot to this morning and I just walked in from work and weighed in, will it really vary that much?
Pleased with this weeks results, I definitley have to measure myself, but have not had time so far. Well, one down, four to go!!

Start of Challenge(7 days ago): 168

This evening: 163

I will still weigh in tomorrow morning to see if that number changes. Good Luck everyone!!

I'm almost didn't make it here to post!

Soething's better than nothing but I'm not done yet!

I have done incredible on water and exercise!
I've alternated weight training/cardio circuit 3 days a week with
treadmill and pilates 3 days.
Plus one night of spin class.
I feel like I am walking better and with nicer posture.
Not that I had trouble walking before but I just feel better!

We have nothing but good things awaiting us all!

Good luck in the days to come to everyone!

Lost 2 lbs! Drank the correct amount of water 4 out of 7 days. Took supplements 5 out of 7 days. Could have done better on the water and supplements, but I am excited about the weight.
