Almost 40

I am so close (1lb) from 40lbs down since July...I can taste it.  I was waiting to post the I hit -40, but am impatient. Feeling so fine on Atkins.  Amazing.  Great.  All's well for me (other than a little overtraining that wore me out this weekend), hope for all.

Wow, congrats on the upcoming!  Atkins seems to be working well for you!  I need some of your stamina.  You wear me out just thinking about all the training you do.

Good going! Close enuf.

Congrats. Before TOM started I did see 240...but now I am up to 244 due to my heaviest day of the flow TMI I know, so after I get back from Chi-Town I am going to weigh...I have 4 pounds to go to be 40 pounds down! AHHH !!!! lol. Keep it up Jerz! Atkins is doing wonders for you. :)

Good for you!  Wish you would post what you're eating on Atkins....still on the induction (or whatever they call the first couple of weeks)?  Would love an idea of menu choices for what you're doing.  I know I can get it on the site, but always interesting to see what people are actually eating. Keep up the good work!!

I thought I had once or twice. I'm eating between 1700-2300 calories (low on days not working out, higher on days I killed myself at the gym).  My % falls between 60-70% fat, 20-30% protein and under 10% carbs.  I just looked at my fitday account and the only difference between now and last month is my %.  When carbs went 10% or lower (20g or so), I lost.  Any higher and it didn't move. Typical day: Breakfast--2-3 eggs Postworkout Snack--eggwhite omelet with cheese, tomato and turkey bacon Lunch--chicken/veggie salad with mayo over lettuce, side of greenbeans in soy sauce Snack--piece of crustless quiche Dinner--tilapia, salsa and cheese I'm done with typical induction, so now nuts are allowed, but will continue in induction for as long as I feel great.
