Induction -- Day FIVE!! :)

Re: Induction -- Day FIVE!!

I'm 33 and 5' 5''
Have a GREAT visit with your bro! I'm going to bring Diet Rite to the party — thanks for the suggestion!

Well, we are close in height...I'm 5'7".

My brother called after I got home (took off an hour early) and said that he had been delayed. He had identity theft when he went to turn off his electricity. Someone else had used his name and SS# for power also. So, he has been working on that all day with the police and won't be leaving until tomorrow. But, that turned out okay -- gives us a little more time to prepare and spend with him. He was going to be rushing through tonight and we'd have to be up by 2 am to get him off by 4 am -- so it would have been pushing it. We would have enough time for him to eat and then sleep. Now since he's not under a deadline he will be able to stay up longer and chat, so it worked out perfect.

Don't forget to let us know how your party went.

Re: Induction -- Day FIVE!!

I'm 35 (I think ) and am 5'5"

I could go for a Diet Rite about now!
Today every time I passed one of the stores where I used to buy Atkins Advantage Bars, I wanted to cut someone off and swerve into the parking lot. LOL But I didn't! I had lunch out with a friend today and I had a chef salad and for the first time ever, I brought my salad dressing with me. Which reminds me, it is still in my purse.

We chatted for a long time, so long that the waiter brought my third glass of water in a "to go" cup. Sorry Mr., but we had a lot of catching up to do.

I'm glad you are feeling better in your clothes, Kat! Today I feel yucky! I feel big and bloated again, but I have been pee'in, like all day and night for three days, so I know I'm not. I hope it passes soon!

Well everyone enjoy their evenings! I'm going to fix dinner and try to watch my TiVo'd Amazing Race with my family. When I watch, I always say, if I lose a lot of weight, I want to do it! My hubby and I would be one of the couples always fighting. Hee Hee.

Hey, you and Urban are the same height and close to the same age! That is neat!!

Yeah for passing up temptation for those old, bad bars that will stall you. When I first did Atkins I drank the shakes and ate the bars and lost just about nothing. Then when I found this website I saw why.

Hum...if you are bloaty, you may need a dose of that flaxseed remedy Dr. A recommends. You ever try it?

It is so nice to be able to sit and chat with friends, ay? I can't believe the waiter was trying to rush you...

If you get on the "Amazing Race", please be sure to let us know so we could watch! That would be funny!!

Well, I'm going to float around on the board a little before I retire for the night. I hope all of you have a great evening!!

P.S. We're saving the burgers for tomorrow so tonight I had the taco salad from that website I posted. It is really yummy!!

Re: Induction -- Day FIVE!!

Kat, I'm not one to push..... ! Why don't you join the March Abs Challenge with Urban and I? I haven't done a sit up/crunches in forever, so I am starting small. I have pledged to do 35 a day, 1085 for the month. It is a small start to exercise, but it is something. I do crunches. Come on...you know you wanna!

Thanks for the push!!

I'm going over there now to check it out. I am still a member of the Vidiot's challenge, but I hurt my knee and stopped for a while, but I need to pick that back up too.

Again, thanks for the shove -- oops! I mean push!!

Re: Induction -- Day FIVE!!

Oh my goodness! I just went to the website with low carb menues that Kat posted on day four...I am soooo excited to cook some of those recipes!!!

The jello desserts look great, but do any of ya'll eat jello on induction? I was trying to stay away from anything sweet, becuase I want awesome results at the end of induction. But, WOW, it looks and sounds so good!!!
~I will probably wait for the jello.
Kat, I haven't tried the flaxseed, I will get my book out and read up on it.
Thanks and goodnight,
Erin

If any of you guys have yahoo feel free to add me to your list for some support my id is chris_n_chrisie@yahoo.com I am on here all the time. And am going to be a lifer this time around. Looking for some weight loss buddies. I have a little over a hundred pounds to lose

Re: Induction -- Day FIVE!!

Hi Chrisie,
Today is my day five also. WELCOME!!! I'm so glad you have the "energy bug" this time. We all have it here and it certainly is what we need.
Kat will most likely be putting up a new thread today, titled Induction---Day SIX!
So be sure to look for it.
Kids have soccer games, so I am off. Have a great day!

Re: Induction -- Day FIVE!!

Thank you so much. I am glad to hear y'all have the energy bug too. It helps with the diet. I haven't started excercising, but it is on my to do list come monday morning. I am trying to do it one step at a time and to be honest, I am looking forward to it. I know it is going to be hard at first. But, I know it is going to increase my energy after a while.
