  • the long ride to the bottom

    I sure wish that taking the weight off was as easy as it was to put it back on!!! Being a youth minister I am constantly around teenagers and there insasible appitities, which makes things interesting. I am proud of myself though I have convinced all of them that "the coolest" place in town to eat is the local wing joint I am convinced that this is the only way to lose weight, almost 60 pds now, all while eating hot wings, God bless the Atkins diet!

              Now you knowwhy God lead you to them.

              look at this as a great chance to demonstrat self control and resisting peer pressure to them by making smart choices about the foods you have with them. you knowthe pressures they areunder to fit in andhave the drugs and ciggerets being offered to them. Announcingyouare on a controlled carb WOE and an exercise program could help them see for themselves somebody not straying from their values cause everybody around them is having some stuff they shouldn't have.
              It will also be a great chance for you to show them how to correctly handle a weight issue should any of them in your group have one.

              Happy low carbing.

                  Congrats, bigmusicman. You're doing great & wing night at the local pub is every Wednesday night. So no cooking for me that night!!! How can you not love Atkins for allowing us wings! That's why I find this woe so easy to be part of.

                    Hi BigMusicMan
                    Wow, we have something else in common besides the ADBB. I'm also a Youth Minister. You know what's hard for me? I need to always have supplies of Candy, Munchies, Pizza on Weekends for the teens and there I am with my cheese and Chicken Breast Strips. But you know, I've been very good around the kids and I don't try their stuff anymore.

                    peace and blessings to you
