Talking 11 days in, 12 pounds gone!

I like beer. A lot. PROBLEM!!! I work at a brewery, and since I started working there 3 years ago, I've gained 60 pounds. Uh-oh! I called off the beer, have been doing Atkins for almost two weeks, and have already lost 12 pounds!

There have been hard days but my best friend is doing this with me, so I feel that is part of my success so far. This WOL is the most life changing things I've ever done, even after just 11 days! I'm not even talking about losing weight- I have more energy, my skin looks more clear, and I feel good about everything I am feeding my body with.

I have been reading posts on this forum for the past week, and really enjoy hearing everyone's stories, successes, and how they get through the hard times! I'm glad my friend told me about it!

Hi, welcome aboard and congratulations on your 12 lb loss!!! I also love the other benefits from LCing. I have great energy and skin too. People don't realise that its not just the weight loss that keeps us on this plan. Its great that you have a freind doing this with you, its more fun. Good luck!
