Hello, Everyone! Let the fun begin. ha!

[Curvalicious]

Good morning guys & gals! My name is Ally, I'm 19 years old, and have been on Atkins for 7 days now. I have lost about 6 lbs so far, and hope to lose 14 more by Valentines day! (Gotta look good in that lingere, right ladies? ) Nobody would imagine how high up my numbers on the scale are, in fact, most people guess my weight about 160, but when I weighed in I saw a frightening 195 and was terrified to get to the 200 mark. So here I am, 7 days later, weighing in at 189. I carry all my weight in this little bit of pudge on my abdomen I lovingly call my "donut". But it really has to go!

I'm about 5'7, and medium framed, so I'd like to get down to around 170, then I would be satisfied. I would push myself for more, but I think my best weight was when I was about 170 a few years ago, i was very fit for my frame, because I have a good amount of muscle, and also carry around some large hoo-hoo's. (Ladies, little tip I heard from my MD...an average c-cup adds about 10 lbs to your frame, and an average D-cup, anywhere from 15-20lbs. It made me feel a little bit better! Maybe itll help you, also! )

Anyways, here are some pix of me from before pre "donut", which is going to be my goal to reach again!

Nice to meet you all! I'm very excited to be here with all of you supportive people!

Hi Curvalicious. Welcome. Nice to have you here at ADBB! Congrats on your loss so far.

Seems you're off to a good start.
Take a look around the board and join any challenges you feel like, or start a journal. This place is fun and full of supportive people who are always happy to encourage and give advice.

If you do Atkins the way it's meant to be done you'll reach your goal for sure and the donut will be a thing of the past.

Do keep posting and let us know how you get on!

Hi Curvalicious! As you know, donuts are not allowed on Atkins, LOL! You will get rid of yours in no time! I find it humurous that you call it a donut because others around here call it a "muffin top"! See that? Bad things are carb ridden food references around here! Best of luck to you.
