    Saturday....Roll Call

    Good Morning Everyone.. Happy Saturday! Its a very warm day here in VA...93 today. I don't like it that hot but I prefer it over Snow..lol

    This morning I weighed 3lbs heavier then I did yesterday. But you know what..It doesn't even bother me... Because I know I didn't eat that much food yesterday. Its hot..so my body is retaining fluid.

    Cheri wanted to tell you when you come to Water Country...They have a Chicken Fajita Salad and I had a Grilled Sausage also.

    I am home alone...I hate it.. Both kids are spending the night away. I get to run to town and go to the bank and pay bills..Fun...lol

    Have a great and LEGAL day!

    Hey!


    Sandy, drink a ton of water today to keep yourself hydrated...its so hot here too!!!

    I jumped on the scale this am just out of curiosity, and I am still in the 150's...woohooo!!! I am THRILLED!

    I went to a new acupuncturist yesterday and we spoke about diet, and she was just so supportive of this WOE. It was really nice. I told her of all the great changes since I started back on plan (more energy, no highs and lows throughout the day, sleeping better, etc), and she said it would be very beneficial for me and my PH level to continue (like I wouldn't have if she didn't say...lol). She was a little confused about ketosis when I mentioned it (thought it was ketoacidosis), so I had to explain the difference. Oh well.

    Anyway, we are off shortly to the garden center to buy stuff to plant around our new fence! YAY!! It's going to be a great weekend!

      Good morning all! Yes, will be very warm. Trying to get our little pool set up. It's a 12'x3' - not very big but enough to get wet and cool! The water man came yesterday and we are going today to get the chlorine. Hopefully, will be ready for tomorrow.

      Sandy - Thanks for the tip! When I get a better idea of the date, I will let you know! My ds is very excited!

      I saw an article on AOL yesterday about how diets were rated by Consumer Reports. Even though three other diets were rated very low on ease of use, amount of weight loss, and nutritional value, Atkins was still dead last. The only comment they made is there is new thought that people on this WOE eat less, so they lose weight. Well, duh! Then why was it rated 10th out of 10? I swear, some of these people don't make any sense. Do they even read the books? The Best Life Diet was rated first - aren't many of the foods similar once all the phases are reached? And Slim Fast was rated FOURTH!!!!

      Oy - you'd think I'd get used to it!!

      Hope everyone has a great day. And I echo Lisa - stay hydrated!

        Good morning. Up two pounds today, but my fingers are swollen and my rings are tight. It's been really hot the past few days, but this weekend should be cooler and rainy. No big plans for the holiday weekend.

          Good Morning All,

          It's hot here too, I am going to break and turn the AC on for the first time this year, it's still getting pretty cool at night, so I can at least turn it back off then.

          I have had a few little bobbles, here and there, lol, but I just keep dusting myself off and going on.

          On the bright side that 177 stall is finally broken and I am losing again, slowly of course, but that's okay. I am hoping to see a 16....something soon.

          Nothing much planned for the weekend for me, I am finally getting a break for work..YAY!!!

          Hope everyone is having a great & legal day.

            Hello all!

            I guess I'm the lucky one weather-wise...it's chilly here, and I'm in a long-sleeve t-shirt and jeans!

            Weighed in this morning at 185! So that either counts as 2 pounds (since I was a up a pound last week) or 1 REAL pound. Either way, I'm ecstatic!

            Today I've got to go back to school, finish my teacher check-out stuff, and come back home and CLEAN like a demon! My parents will be here tonight, and I haven't seen them since SEPTEMBER! They have NO IDEA that I've been on Atkins, and they have NO IDEA that I chopped all my hair off, and they have NO IDEA that I've lost 80 POUNDS!!! They'll be here for a few days before they continue on to Wyoming.

            Have a great day, STACers!

                Morning, Met a mini goal this morning. Don't know if the evil scale will let it stay that way in the coming week but I don't care it showed 155 and thats what I am recording! I am wearing a size 12 today Have not done that in a few years, and not used to something actually fitting, it sure is easy to get used to loose clothes. cya later

                  Julie, they are going to be SHOCKED because you look AWESOME!!! How cool will that be? Congrats on the 2 lbs. Good luck with all the cleaning! My MIL lives with us (which is great, because she's cool!) and my mom isn't much of a housekeeper, so my house is always good!

                  Di - I wish it would cool down here. I would love it if it stayed in the high 70s here. But, this is VA, so that ain't happenin'. We've had the AC on for about 2 weeks. We held off as long as we could, but then the pollen got so bad that things in my house started turning a yellowish-green! We don't turn the AC off at night. We turn it up to about 75 or so, then it doesn't run.

                  Sheepie - hang in there. I'm retaining, too. It's the heat, I swear. Can't stay hydrated. No big plans for us, either. Just grilling some stuff and opening our little pool.

                    Hi everyone:

                    Julirama: IMG- They are going to be sooo shocked. I don't know how you kept it to yourself. Let us know how it goes.

                    To everyone else, sounds like there are losses!!! woo woo.

                    Water water water. I can't believe I tried Diet Coke this morning and I actually chose the water instead.

                    Day 6, haven't weighed. Saving it for tomorrow.

                    xoxo to all,

                      Hi everyone! Happy Saturday.

                      Julie, that is the best story ever...can't wait to read about their reaction. I probably have the same weather as you...we're very close to Montana. Right now it's +12 C, which is about 62 F! But it's early yet....only 7:40 our time. Maybe we'll reach the 70's today! (exciting stuff here!)
                      Started my running program this morning! It's the Couch to 5K one from Cool Running. I did it successfully 4 years ago and LOVED it, so am really happy to be doing it again.
                      As many of you already posted, this seems to be bloat-day. My tummy is rather plump looking today , and I feel like I'm retaining water. This does make sense though because the last 3 days I've been short a litre every day. Bad, bad, bad. Too busy and not paying attention.

                      I love coming here and seeing the morning roll call post...thanks to you guys in the East who can get it started!

                        Julie I cannot WAIT to hear their reactions! They are gonna fall over!!

                        I was thrilled to see this morning I've lost another lb so 2 lbs this week I am so psyched, I am hoping to be in the single digits (9 lbs to go) at the end of next week. I think what did it is me stepping my water back up and cutting out the crystal light lemonade.

                        YEEEEEHAW!!! Have a great weekend everyone!

                            Mornin Everyone!

                            Really late checkin in today, had some work to do first.

                            Julie, as with everyone, I am excited to see what your parents say about your transformation! I know I couldn't have kept it to myself that long! What a great surprise!

                            Lord....I wish it was hot here! Only supposed to be in the mid 60's here today in Saskatchewan (right in the middle of Canada ). I love the heat and spent some of my winter in Florida. Oh how I miss it! So, no water retention here due to heat anyway.

                            Waiting to weigh in on Tuesday and think I will be down a bit. I have been being pretty good, but most proud I'm drinkin all my water. It seems to be getting easier!

                            Have a great day everyone!
