    Before (YIKES) and During

    I started out doing Atkins on September 15, 2005 at 285, but I had already lost 11 pounds by just cutting back on carbs since my highest scale weight near the end of August.

    The first picture was taken in June 2005--I just saw this picture for the first time last week!


    This picture was taken on August 16, 2005--my blammo moment


    This shot was taken as my before pic--285 pounds Sept. 19, 2005


    257 pounds--11-27-05

    193 pounds--7-25-06


    182 pounds--Family Christmas dinner 12-16-06


    I still have a ways to go, but I'm celebrating almost being there! I'm still way too top heavy, but I'm losing very little in the chest and upper arms. I had a reduction in 1989 and it seems that I will have to have another when I get to goal.

                      you look amazing!! It's these kind of pictures that keep me going when I am having a hard day! Funny that you mentioned your chest...I was just going to say how jealous I am that it appears that you aren't losing yours!! But if you want to get rid of some, I'll take it.

                      Great job, Can't wait to see what you look like when you are finally done!
