It was so hard for me, as of now i weigh 258 and i am so happy, i still cheat about once or twice a week, but im working on it, ive been on atkins for month and a half almost and i use the elyptical about 4 to 5 times a week. This week i will weigh ,myself again, my goal was to get to 250 by this week, but we'll see. Good luck u are gorgeous your story inspired me i am 20 years old.

Melcom, I love that my story was inspiring to you and that you could relate. I am 19 years old so I understand the difficulty of being an overweight teen. I hope you reached your goal of 250! Best of luck with everything


I also want to thank everyone else for your kind comments

YOU GO GIRL! I'm so happy for you and you better buy yourself that bikini for Jamaica! You're gonna need that tan on your tummy for those cute little belly t's you can now wear all summer without having to worry about a fat roll.

Absolutely adorable. I did not have a belly ring at 19, but I did have the bikini! Enjoy it, absolutely. No question about the bikini either. You must!

I am 39 and thinking about that belly ring to celebrate my future success... of course, it would be for the dh only!

Yeah, good for you! I am starting induction tomorrow and it's stories like yours that have brought me to Atkins. Keep up the good work!
