I lost - yep, 25 lbs and I couldn't be happier.

I came back to Atkins on Oct 21st knowing that I would not survive the holidays unless I did. I sat down and thought about all the junk here and all the eating occasions and scared myself silly. Best decision I have ever made. All my office mates are moaning and groaning today that they gained so much weight with all the candy and stuff - seems like everyone was sending Godivas to us this year. The candy and sweets around here from Halloween on is absolutely obscene.

I went off the diet (planned) for 4 days starting with Thanksgiving and a Las Vegas trip and then went off for 4 days starting with Christmas eve. I did not choose to go off my diet for New Year's as I did not want to start off the year that way. All my off time was away from the office so this year I never started with candy, cookies, cakes, etc here.
