Default 19 pounds in 36 days, but holy INCHES GONE!!!

Hi, I'm nowhere near some of the success post on here, but this is my mini success :-)

Since I found out I had celiac, and I combined Atkins, therefore all I eat are the Atkins allowed veggies and meat. I drink water!!!! , 3 diet pepsi's a week, and well if I go out it's vodka in diet pop.


I have lost 19 pounds as of this morning...
(yes i went on a 2 day bing 2 weeks ago as well.....bad i know but i'm making a come back i think lol)

MY surprise is with the inches, I just did these in the evening after supper, not the most accurate but still THRILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLED LOL

chest 40" now 36.5"
waist 42" now 38"
hips 54" now 47"
That's all I kept track of and that's a total of 15.5 Inches GONE!!!!!

Weight 240-245lb when I started (I only bought a scale 4 days after)
weight now 221lb (so 19 to 25 pounds not sure)

Size 20-22 to a 16!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pants which i bought yesterday on TOM to top that off
and 2x tops to a normal size XL

So I'm not obese anymore I'm just fat, who woulda thought I'd smile about that lol!!!

Working my way to Onederland :-)


Well just wanted to say thanks, this forum has been amazing for me :-)

*NOTHING tastes as good as THINNER feels :-) *

Default Great

First off, I'd like to say that you are a very pretty woman. You are doing great, it's nice that you kept track of those inches, becuase I neglected that part of the initial process. I've gone through some weight-loss dry-spells, so it would have been nice if I had kept track too. Your already showing some definate signs in your face.
