  • End of Week One Check In...

    Hello friends ~

    Today marks the end of week one on my induction-once-again journey. I feel really good. I am down 6 pounds as of last Monday, and i have 11 more to go to get back to where i was before i went willy-nilly.

    I am always amazed by how clear headed & energetic i feel once i get through the carbohydrate/sugar addiction in my body. I am a HUGE napper, and i haven't had a nap in four or five days! Woo hoo! And the baby was even up several times last night ~ and amazingly, i am not dragging.

    Thank you all for your support & kindness. You really do make a difference for me!

    In fact, my husband has been working from home all day and hogging the computer so i haven't been able to really get on until now. And even now i was only given a five minute window of time to check in, but i have been sincerely looking forward to this little break all day!

    I have to work on this "working from home" dealio. It's like, "nice that you are around more, now can you please leave!?" Ha ha ha... maybe we can move him downstairs. Tee hee.

    Check in with you all later!

    Hi, Jenna!

    Congrats on you 6 pound gone!

    Enjoy the awesome energy and feeling....it'll keep getting better and better.

    Cute how you and hubby work from home; Being a mom is the hardest job in the world, but sharing your realm with you honey gets some getting use to that I can only imagine. Mine drives me nuts if he's home and is supposed to be at work...out of my space. lol.

    take care and best wishes on your journey!

          great job on the loss! keep it up!
          Sorry everyone. I've had to abandon Atkins. After slipping up, I gained back everything and more. I fully believe in and support Atkins, I know it works, but it's too hard for me. I'm following my own plan now, exercising more, eating less in general and healthier, still focusing more on veggies and fruits and whole grains and much less processed junk and bad carbs. I still visit here occasionally, so I will keep my stats listed here when I do. I wish everyone the best on this program or any others that work for you.

          11-10-07: 210/146/125 - more than 60 pounds lost this year!

              Thanks, girls!

              Loana ~ he uses two computers!!! Our home computer and his laptop. It is so annoying. He has poker going on online on our home computer (just the game, not real betting) and then uses the laptop for work, as it is secure. I think he is going to move downstairs though... he claims he "can't find anything" on the desk... ha ha ha... we'll see. I'll keep you posted. Today he is in the office so i am home free to roam online as i please, with the exception of chasing after my toddler! I don't think he really understands how much i rely on the boards... he weighs like 140 and can eat whatever he wants. Jerk. (tee hee)

                        Oooh, how was the movie? I heard that it basically sets you up for the next one. So what is the verdict - theater or DVD?

                          Definitely theater. It totally sets you up for the next one... i won't say anymore than that for the folks who don't like spoilers. But you can email me if you want some juicy details... ha ha ha!
