[chiloe]

I started Atkins on September 1rst and recorded my measurements on Fitday.
As of today I have lost a total of 11 inches! Yay!
3" off my chest, 2 inches off my waist and 1.5 inches off my hips.
I was also glad to see 1.5 in. off my thigh although they still look thunderous to me!! . The other lost inches were from a combination of the bicep 1" and neck - .5in., forearm - remained the same and calf 1.5 in. Maybe I will actually be able to buy a pair of those nice tall boots with the side zips this winter. I've stopped trying those on as it was always depressing to have large calves and not being able to get the zipper over. Made me feel like the hulk!
I could feel it in my clothes although the scale isn't moving much - I am very physically active at work so it's probably muscle messing up the scale.
I am very happy with my results and motivated to continue and see what my measurements read on Nov. 1.
Thanks for all the great support, motivation and humour here on these boards. Couldn't be doing this without you all!!
