Almost there

[mountaingurl]

We cruise on 9/22, and I have lost 17 pounds. I have maybe ten more to go, and I am there. The weight was coming off so slowly, I did a bad thing and started atkins. Well, it's my modified atkins. Lots of lean protein and plenty of green veggies. I would kill for a piece of toast or slice of chocolate cake right now. Dreams of warm chocolate melting cake are keeping me up at night. I do not like meat very much, so this diet is hard for me. I was looking back on my cruise pics from 6 years ago, and I have saved my formal too. I have never tried it on since then. It was a bad idea. BUT, if I can squeeze another 10 pounds it will fit!!! That is what is keeping me going, though I bought a back-up:p just in case. So for anyone out there who is trying to loose hang in there! If I can do it, so can you. I plan on using the walking track and gym a lot when we go on our cruise to try and combat gaining much back.

Congrats to you! I need to lose about 55 pounds, but I have 13 months to do it. I love hearing that others have made it! Just remember... you'll get that slice of cake in a couple more weeks!
