    It's Wednesday already!

    Good morning, everyone!

    I was lying in bed this morning reflecting (and trying to ignore the cats, who wanted to be fed and were not shy about saying so) and I realized that when I do Atkins, my life and my mind slow down in a way.

    I really focus on TODAY when I do this woe. On my workout plans, on what foods I will eat, etc. Very little of my life is on autopilot, because I have to be so mindful of my body and its needs.

    I like that. It feels....right.

    I hope everyone on the Tape Measure Challenge measured last night! We start today! It's going to be "tough" - you have to just be on Atkins for the next 2 weeks, then measure again. <G>

    I am thankful for all of you, because you know what it's like to be on this WOE and to be upset about being fat. And none of you dwell on it, but show me daily how to just keep on keepin' on!!!!!

      Happy Wednesday! This week does seem to be flying by. 2 more weeks and I'm vacationing! Very excited, but I will miss the support of this board and my buddy, Dragonflymoon. I plan to come back and tell you all that I dropped weight on vacation, or atleast maintained. (keeping my fingers crossed).

      Today, I'm doing good. I had tuna salad with boiled egg over lettuce for breakfast. For lunch I will have a bunless cheeseburger and side salad and for dinner, grilled pork and green beans. For exercise I will walk 30 mins or do the WATP 2 mile tape.

      Hope everyone else is having a great Wednesday!!

        I hear you! You guys really keep me going! I wish you all success in the next few weeks. Please do this again so I can join, ok? It will be nice to get my foot fixed so I can kick some butt on walking!


        I had to talk to the pre-op people yesterday. I also have bursitis in my hip that's very painful. I take Aleve 2-3 times a day and it really helps. The lady told me I couldn't have any Aleve, Ibuprofen or Excedrine starting today until after the surgery. I told her "I hate you already and I don't even know you!" So I'm not exercising this week because it aggravates my hip and without being able to take something for the pain... well... it's only for a little while.

        I'll try to check back here once in awhile during my recovery. I'm so anxious to see how you're all doing.

        Finelly, last night I made your recipe for stroganoff. HMMMM!!! I ate half of it and brought the other half for lunch. It probably puts me over on my "creams" but what the heck!

        I hope y'all have a great day!

          Okay Finelly, what is this stroganoff recipe I'm hearing of? Sounds delish!

          Guzzling more water now so I don't feel hungry thinking of stroganoff

                    Debbie - you poor thing! Just rest up! Stick with the woe, and the inches will still come off. If you can do any stretching or crunches or even some free weight lifts with arms while lying down, you could try that.

                    My stroganoff recipe: 1 lb ground beef mixed with about 1/4 cup sour cream and salt and pepper to taste, plus (correct me here if I'm wrong, because I do it by "feel") about 2 tsp nutmeg and 1 egg. Mix it up, fry it in a pan (stirring it up so it doesn't make meatballs!). When browned, add about 1/4 cup sour cream mixed with cream plus salt and more nutmeg. Let it simmer about 15 min.
