  • CC Roll Call Saturday 12/29/07

    Good morning everyone-Today is finally the last Christmas function I have to endure. My wife's family is coming over for lunch and to do presents with all the kids. Since I'm hosting, I will have some good Atkins friendly items on hand for me. It really is amazing how so many people seem to make the holidays all about eating (of course, I have been guilty of it in the past). What happened to celebrating a holiday based on the merit of the holiday, not how much and what you get to eat. Ok enough of my rambling...

    Thought I would share this with my fellow CC friends. I had to go buy pants yesterday, when I started this WOE I was wearing a size 50x34 Jean. I went and bought two pairs of 46x34, I didn't have time to try them on, so I was a little worried they wouldn't fit. When I got home, they fit and they were actually a smidge on the loose side (however, a 44 would have been to tight). I have a long way to go, but any success like this truly helps.

    Have a great day everyone.

    What I know:
    1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
    2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
    3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
    4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

    Fantastic Bluebelt!! Nothing like smaller jeans to help with the motivation!!

    Have a great Saturday with your family. I'm headed down your way to do the holiday with DH's family.

    Congrats again!

      Thanks Glenda, be careful on your drive, it's supposed to rain/ice most of the day down here. So far, just rain since about 2am.

          Good Morning CC'ers!

          Way to Go Bluebelt! You're shrinking!

          I have no plans today really. Just hanging out with the parents and I might go to a movie tonight with my sister and her husband. Tomorrow I head back home to Atlanta. I've had a GREAT time at my parent's house but I'm ready to get back home.

          Now all I have to worry about is the NY's eve party I've been invited to. I know there will be food galore there (with the main dinner being pizza!) Not sure how to get around this one yet. We're supposed to bring our favorite snack to munch on through the night so I've got that covered, but dinner I don't know. I need a plan because I know me and if I go in unprepared I will cheat and eat the pizza. Any suggestions?

          Goal: 150 (going skydiving!)

          The difference between try and triumph is just a little umph!

            Thanks Chicklady and Liz,

            Go Patriots!! Of course I will be watching tonight

            Liz, in regards to the party, I'm sure your friends love and care about it, so it really shouldn't make a difference what you do. Bring a dinner item you want, it's a party so it's all about having a good time. You could bring a nice Chicken Cesar Salad or really anything you like that is good for you on the WOE.

            Good Luck with it, you will do great.

                Congrats on the pants. I'm like you. I'm in an in-between stage where one size is loose but the next size down is too snug.

                    Good afternoon!! I have had a good day. I went to the salon this morning to treat myself (felt strange, I'm so low-maintenance). I'm going to start taking better care of me in 2008 (as we all should). Have a great day everyone!!
