Default 41 lbs down this year!!!

Don't post here a lot, but wanted to keep you updated! As of today I am down a total of 41 lbs since the first of the year. Went from a 40 inch waist to a 36, and a XXL shirt to a L. Low carb is my salvation!!! Lots of exercise and water, and few carbs...

Calling it GOAL at this point. I'm happy with where I am now and hope to stay there, or maybe even take it down a little more.

Thanks Bren,
I'll feel like a million bucks when I get below 200... into Onederland!!! I feel pretty darn good now, but I still have my goals, and then on to maintenance... I'm off to a good start, and it's been pretty easy really. I say that, but it's been a total change of lifestyle as far as eating goes. But still, it hasn't been hard. And, if I can do this anyone can!!!!!!!!!

It really isn't that hard!!!

Rick

Hey Barb,
Just been hanging out at the sister site mainly... not as much action there, but I fit in better there I think. Still doing "mostly Atkins" according to some, but it's been all good for me thus far. Thanks for wondering!
