Talking I Started Atkins On 1/1/09 In Size 18 Jeans & I Bought Size 10 Today!!!

Yesterday at about 6PM here in Northern Maryland there was a very bad Thunder Storm that knocked our Electric out until 5:55PM this Evening.

I went shopping at Walmart this afternoon to beat the 90' heat & they had a sale on jeans!!!

I Started Atkins On 1/1/09 in size 18 elastic top jeans & the one's I bought today are "Lee Riders" zipper/button top size 10 !!!

I came out of the Fitting Room Jumping Up & Down & Dancing Around!!!

I was soooooooo happy & couldn't believe that I was wearing a size 10. There were 3 other Ladies that I didn't even know cheering along with me!!!

Oh & they were on Clearence sale from $20 to $3 so that made me even happier as Iam a REAL Bargin Shopper!!! LOL

As soon as I had dinner finished I just had to log on to to share with all of my friends here my joy of 50 pounds & 8 sizes down in 8 months!!!

To me that is just beyond AMAZING, while eating all the yummy foods that we get to enjoy!!!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU ~ ATKINS!!!!

And Thanks to all of you for letting me share!!!

I just went into my closet and picked up my old jeans.

I raised them up in front of me and looked at them and I can't explain to you how odd it feels at looking at oversized clothes that once fit me like a glove and now fall off me.

I feel so odd looking at my oversized clothes.
