Well it's been a while since I've blogged and I've reached a few goals. I started Atkins 79 days ago and I'm down 28 lbs.
I reached my first goal which was to beat my lowest weight since gaining after surgery. My lowest was 172.5 and I have beat it.
My second goal was to lose half my body weight which would have put me at 166.5 and I've beaten that. Today I weigh 165 lbs. I have 104 days to lose 10 lbs and reach my final goal of weighing 155 lbs. at that point I will start adding carbs back into my diet.

This Is The New Me
This is me.
Hi, I'm Darlene and I was that fat lady.
About Me
- Darlene E.
- I'm a married, stay at home mom to three kids, 21, 17, and 14. I've been over weight all my life, and after trying every diet and weight loss trick out there, I've decided to have weight loss surgery. On November 10 2008, I will have a Roux en Y gastric by-pass. That will be the day I will be reborn.
ME BEFORE SURGERY
Not a very attractive picture, but this is what I looked like before surgery. I took this picture to give to the insurance company so they can see how badly I needed the surgery. I was approved shortly after.
