Sortafairytale's Journal, 17 April 2016

4 pounds til goal! I was so happy when I got on the scale considering I increased NC to 80/day last week, but watching the calories has really helped. And having so many extra choices makes it easier to cut calories. But I did add back sugar this past week and it seemed to go fine. This week I'll increase to 90 NC and add back the rest. So, I'll be fully transitioned, I'll just still have to watch carb intake. It's a lifestyle, not a diet. But with only 4 pounds til goal I'm feeling pretty proud. I started this journey November 2014, and it's been a long year and a half, but it was so worth it. When I started I weighed 229 (I started before I started using this app), and now at 149, that makes 80 pounds lost. Now I'm just working on toning still. An hour of Pilates 5 days a week seems to be helping. It also seems to be helping the weight drop. I have my honeymoon in 2 weeks and it'll be nice to be fully transitioned in time for that and hopefully at goal weight. That's only 2 pounds/wk, so it's possible. But we'll see. I will probably continue to track carbs on here once I reach goal because I'll still have to eat low carb. So I'll be around for the rest of my life or at least til I can start managing the transitioned self better.
149.0 lb Lost so far: 69.0 lb.    Still to go: 24.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

I admire your accomplishment AND how well you are managing Atkins in doing it exactly the way the Dr. intended. You are on track for a successful lifetime maintenance. (I wish I had done it when I was your age.) Congratulations and thank you for sharing your story!
