Well, congratulations are in order. I have to go back and research what you are doing. Sometimes you will have a big loss initially then it tapers down and occasionally you stall. Pat yourself on the back.

Whatever you do, keep taking pictures, keep weighing yourself (no more than weekly), keep measuring yourself, etc.

It will make for a fantastic scrapbook full of memories when you are closer to your goal!

Man - that's exciting!!!

Wow! Congratulations! No wonder you weren't feeling so well... that's a tremendous loss.

Are you feeling better now? If you are still feeling sick, you may want to slow that down a bit by eating a bit more.

This way of eating rocks! :dazzle:

"Holy Crap" is right!! :lol:

That is astounding and I also hope that you are feeling better now.

And I second the suggestion that you go into your "profile"( find USER CP) and CHANGE YOUR STATS!!! :agree:

Way to go on your first Whoooosh!! :thup:

adding my voice to the chorus here (ribbit!)

strongly suggest that you start recording measurements--if you don't do it now, you'll wish you had later.

If you don't have tape measures, or you aren't ready to face the numbers, then just get a piece of white cotton clothesline that you can put knots in or mark with colored markers (say, red for waist, blue for thighs, green for arms, etc., and measure yourself once a month.

There will be times that the scale may not move much, and often these are the times when your measurements are shrinking--another medical mystery.

Your body wants this--that's why you're doing so well.

way to go !!! remember you do loose a lot of fluid in the begining. dont get corky and not replace your fluid. i think the doc recommends 8 or 9 glasses of water a day. you have to keep flushing yourself out from ketosis. so dont think its pee out, nothing in.. but, ya ! really! 40 pounds is super.give yourdelf a lobster tail this week end.

wow, i hope someone didnt get wrong idea when i posted the other day! i used the term "dont get corky" what i ment was dont get fooled thinking that excessive water loss is a reason to "put a cork in your mouth" and NOT drink enough fluid to flush out the by products of ketosis.YES. YOUR DOING GREAT.someone needs to publish a book on atkins mistakes instead of finding out the hard way, like me.remember , if it aint in the book and its out of your head, your probably wrong ! i really hope this gets posted.. if it does not.. well...

HOLY CRAP INDEED!!! I would so love to hear how you done it and exactly what you ate during this time. :help: That is so awesome.....just imagine 40lbs gone already.....just imagine doing this for 10 months or so? That is what I need, to see light and the end of the tunnel. If you feel like sharing your keys to success with me....you can email me at qwyneden88~aol.

Wow that is alot at once, but I know when I started my first time I lost 26 in two weeks but then I'm a woman and started at 350. So it is possible. Just watch your dehydration and health ok?
