Feb 26, 2009

I've been hanging out on the non surgical board. I think I've given up on the hopes of surgery, at least for now. I've been following Atkins since the beginning of Nov. 08 and I've lost 48lbs so far, despite some challenging times where I've fallen off the wagon. Everyone's been super supportive, and I know thats part of the reason for my success. I've never had so many friends who were looking out for me and encouraging me on my weightloss journey. It's great. Atkins is really hard for me to follow, but I am a carb addict, and bad carbs go straight to fat in my body. I've recently been diagnoised with PCOS, and have been told that a treatment for that is weightloss, but it makes it difficult to loose weight on any plan except low carb ones. I'm really trying hard to stick to the plan. Spring and summer are coming, and I really want to be healthier so I feel like playing with my daughter more and doing the fun things I used to like to do when the weather's nice. July 21, 2008 I was up to 447lbs...I'm hoping that by this July I'll be down to 347lbs, a hundred lbs gone. That would be so nice. I only have 35lbs to go to reach that goal, and 5 months to get there, so as long as I stay on my plan I think I can do it!
