Talking 15 week update!

I am a different person!

On 1/3/06 I weighed 275, didn't have the energy to walk to the mailbox and back to the house, was tired all the time, and just sick of myself in every way. Today I am a powerhouse, I am on the go all the time and LOVE it, I walk 2 miles 5 days a week, I'm happier, I feel 1000 times better than I have in 10 years, and I've lost 46 pounds! I have a long way left to go, but if someone had told me on 1/3 that THIS MUCH success was possible in this short a time I would've laughed in her face!

My only regret is that I didn't start this journey a LONG time ago.

My signature includes before and after pics. I am watching myself melt before my very eyes. THANK GOD FOR THE ATKINS WOL!

I did Extended Induction from 1/3 to 5/9 (2006) and lost 55 pounds, so I know I can do it again!

The reason I quit...

Worth it !!!

You look very good with new look. Don't you want to change something more? A new hairdo?
Maybe something red would go really good with you. Take care! Good luck.

Hun, you look beautiful. And doesn't all that you've changed make you just feel even more beautiful than you are. That is the way I feel. We are never 100% happy with ourselves but when you realize that you DO deserve to take care of yourself and how happy you can be with yourself. That's a power I could not describe until I "decided" that I needed to to this for myself so that I can provide better for everyone else. I'm encouraged with your possitiveness. Keep it up and keep us posted.

Later.
