PURPLE and 20 POUNDS DOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

I gotta change my stats but...... As of this morning I was 175. That means 20lbs down !!!! My personal goal setting stratagy is to get those sticks to turn purple and keep them there. I know others do not like the sticks (me neither when they are tan LOL) But I can judge everything off of them . If I check them all the time I can tell what is or is not throwing me in or out. I have lost the last 5 lbs with them only being purple 1x. thats it ...1x! But I was back in this morning and I know that the body is burning. I had a really bad weekend and it took three days to recover. Was not worth it at all!!! The headachs OMG!! I gained 4.5 lbs in 2 days and lost 5 since Monday. Set myself back 3 days. Atkins can do alot in three days on induction. I have done Atkins on and off for a long time to just maintain and not gain but now I have set another goal and I will hit it. Is it not great when you finally get that mindset again!!!!! It is 5:44 in the morning and I just could not sleep cause I know that I can do it. 150 by November 1 st!!!!

Me too the sticks are a staple in my Atkins. They really keep me going, and help to see what foods slow me down.

Congratulations on the 20# WAY TO GO, How long did it take you?

wow 20 pounds is great!! Were you cooling with butter? or were you watching your fat intake? :help:

ooooops :lol: I mean't cooking with butter...silly me. ;)

Congradulations!! I hate the sticks too when they are tan. :)
Today was the first day mine showed light purple. Im so excited but when I went to weigh, I was up a couple of pounds. Does not make sence....I have been walking on the tredmill even. Any way, Hearing stories like yours keeps me going.....

:Party: :Party: :Party: Way to go! :Party: :Party: :Party:
