Well... I'm sure you'll want to hear how well you've done, because you have! Congratulations! You look really good.
Did you lose weight doing Atkins? How come you are on induction now? It doesn't look as though you need to lose more weight...
Tell us your story... we're always interested.

Default Re: Before and now, Ups and downs.

Hello, I'm new here, really glad to join you.
My name's Adel, I'm 20 years old from Egypt.
Well. I haven't really been through a regular diet or atkins.
I remember back then looking at myself in the mirror, really HATED! how my body looked, it would only make me feel down .
Then one day i decided to give up all kinds of unneeded causing fat food and drinks (Chocolate, Sugar drinks, Fried food and much more) at the same time I started to work out variable types of body exercises, it was SO HARD to start, harder to go on but i kept pushing myself.
I've lost 102 lbs through the past 5 years.
Happy to say that my life's much lighter now, I run, jump and do whatever I've always thought was hard to do.
I'm proud with what i've come to, intending to lose more unwanted weight in the next few months.

Oh, I see. So you are starting the Maintenance (or is it Pre-Maintenance?) phase of Atkins?
