Default 12 weeks in

Well, I decided I was going to come to this forum and celebrate. I have been on Atkins for 12 weeks now. All my life I have been fat and I have tried every diet out there. I never lost more then 20 lbs and then turned around and gained it all back plus more. But I am so happy to say just in 12 short weeks I have dropped 40 lbs and I feel like I can finally accomplish this. 12 weeks doesnt feel like a long time and I know Atkins is something I can do for a life time. I have a long way to go but I want to thank each and every one of you on this board and to those who have and are supporting me. I love this place and being here lets me know I am not alone and I mean it from the bottom of my heart that if I didnt have ADBB I dont think I would have made it. ROCKS!!! So, I will be back again in another 40 lbs to celebrate, and the 40 lbs after that, and the 40 lbs after that!!!

Woo hoo Tutti! Almost 25% of your goal is completed. You go girl!

Imagine that you're doing great, losing weight, feeling better than ever, thrilled with yourself, hearing compliments from friends and acquaintances---and then it happens! Despite all your good intentions, you're mightily tempted by a food you're not supposed to have. What to do? I'll tell you this: You'd better have a strategy ready!"

Congratulations Tutti!! 40# is wonderful but more importantly the fact that you have found a way of eating that works for you is reason to do the happy dance!
