Default 2 pounds and 4.5 inches + SHORTS SEASON!

well - got on the scale this morning and holy crap - i'm at 177!!!!! 1 more pound and i'll have hit 20 pounds gone!!!!!

I also decided to take my measurements (which normally don't go down toooo much) but I started at 196 - my belly (around the belly button) was 44 inches and my waist (ribcage) was 37 inches...

my belly, without sucking in at ALL, is NOW 41 inches!!!!! and my ribcage is about 35.5 inches!!!!!!!

I've gone from a size 17 to a size 13 and it's AWESOME!!

now, if only my bra-size would lose inches (i wear a size 40 or 42 depending on the bra)

Also - something else - I got all my shorts out yesterday as it was in the 70's and (when i'm not working) i prefer to wear shorts. I LOVE shorts - as i love my legs! lol...

But I just remember last year trying to put my old shorts on (size 13's) and how incredibly freakin' tight they were and that it just wasn't going to happen.
BUT I wore my fave shorts yesterday - COMFORTABLY WITH ROOM TO SPARE!!!!!!!!!

I can not say enough how much I LOVE atkins!!!!!!

Lucky you get those shorts out. Still pretty chilly here. Super late spring.
Wonderful to hear about how yours are fitting you.
Hurray for 177

YAY, KERIANN!!! Congrats on the itty bitty shorts!! YOU wear SHORT SHORTS!! Be loving the fact that you like your legs!! I've never liked more than just my thighs! Knees-ugly, ankles-thick, calves-too muscular for a chick. How's that for hard on yourself?? So, if you love 'em, flaunt 'em, baby girl!!

And look at you and the scale showin love to one another! It's about time your scale started recognizing your valiant efforts!! You're 14 lbs away from me now! I'm trying to catch down to you! CONGRATS!! I hope you keep a long lived smile on your face from the good news from 2 victories this weekend!! Keep it up! SO PROUD OF YOU!!!

Don't go getting shorts on just yet... it's pretty chilly in Indy today!

Congrats on the loss, I'm down 24lbs in just under 1 month.

Super job Keriann !!!!

Wow, the power of Atkins when people truly follow it.
Now if I could stop that pesky red wine from calling me
after work maybe I too could write such a good report

Keep it up !
