I'm sitting here with my cup of coffee reading all of the posts and feeling SOOOOOOO moved that we are all so supportive of each other. This place is sometimes like an oasis where I can come and get refreshed. I have very supportive family and friends, but they aren't on Atkins, and somehow having buddies who are doing the same as I is important.
Today is Day Eleven for me. I forgot to check in on exercise yesterday, so I'll tell you that I did 1/2 hour of cardio and lower body weight training.
Today my daughter and I are going to the beach and I will get in that extra 30-minute walk. For some reason, I can't bring myself to just walk in my neighborhood in the evenings, but at the beach I am always willing to walk! Go figure! Maybe one of you should buy me a house ON the beach! Yeah! That's the ticket! SHOW ME YOUR SUPPORT! Buy me a house!!!!!!!!!! lolol
Something interesting is happening to me: as I keep going without once touching the scale, I am less and less interested in how much I weigh and I also am not particularly wanting to weigh myself on day 14. Or day 30! I find myself thinking: look, I'm in ketosis, I know that ketosis causes me to lose weight, I know that it can be slow or fast, weighing won't make it go faster, and I should concentrate on other things. (to be fair, I also find myself, in my more neurotic moments, thinking, look, I don't want to know. I'm covering my eyes. I have my fingers in my ears and I'm saying nananana so you can't make me listen!)
I'm trying to think of things to keep me busy tomorrow and away from the computer as much as possible so I won't be going nuts not being able to get on the board. So far I have:
1. manicure - need fills
2. workout
3. shave the cats
4. Wax the condo parking lot
5. Go to a bookstore - I can spend hours at Borders!
My husband says that numbers 3 and 4 are probably a little unrealistic. Any more ideas?
