Made My First Goal!

[odirish]

It's only been 4 days and I've already made my first mini goal.
BTW, what's all this talk about Atkins changing? After I finally figured
out how to do it

Good Job Mary Ann!!!! I started Atkins the same day you did, and My first Mini-Goal was to go from 242 to 200 by April 10.... (my 26th birthday) so.. I have a little ways to go! But I'm already 8 lbs down to 234!! woohoooo

Congrats and keep up the good work!

Re: Made My First Goal!

I need to look at 5 lbs. at a time. I have a tendency to look too far down the road and then I get disappointed. Congratulations on your weight loss. We'll have to keep tabs on each other. How are you doing on Induction? Before when I did it, I just picked it apart so much that I made myself crazy trying to track every single carb. I'm not doing that this time around. I'm doing as best I can. If I keep starting over, I'll never lose the weight.

Re: Made My First Goal!

actually, so far Induction has been great! I haven't had any problems at all. No cravings which I'm thankful for!!! if anything, I get a small sweet craving and that is satisfied pretty well with a glass of decaf tea w/splenda... so that's good. I don't go nuts trying to track carbs... I eat when I'm hungry, and don't when I'm not. Drink lots of water and make sure I eat my 3 meals a day and 3 cups of greens. .... that's really all I've watched out for. I make sure my food falls into either veggies, proteins or cheese and whamo. LOL... I guess it's been pretty easy for me as this time I've finally decided I'm gonna do it.... somethin to be said for putting your mind to it!!!!!

I'll make sure to keep an eye on you and if you ever need to vent or need any encouragement, my contact options are on my profile!

Re: Made My First Goal!

I feel the same. I think we're gonna do it this time. I haven't had any sugar cravings either. I'm getting ready to go to the store now to pick up some odds and ends. Talk to you later.

Hmmm, if Atkins is changing, then it didn't come from Dr. Atkins.

Congrats!

Don't worry about the changes. All they did was add their frankenfoods and say it's now ok to eat them. Pfft not me!

Re: Made My First Goal!

Thats awesome Mary Ann, I should do it in 5 pound bits myself.
Since Atkins death, the company has been going more commercial and thats what we have been talking about. As you know we are just sticking with his 2002 rules cause they have worked for so many of us.
