Good morning STACers, it's another day in Atkins land! I was posting over in journals and it hit me, we can either be here and working it or in Carbland loosing it! You can't have carbs and this lifestyle. You can't have carbs and be thin or at a more natural weight. Our bodies pack on the pounds from eating carbs. We convert the sugars to stored fat! That's why we are so overweight, and then we think we can get away with just one bite!
For some of us, we've seen the light, others are in denial and are just on a diet. This is the second time around club and many of us come back with our tail between our legs, coming into the reality that we really do have a problem with foods, with carbs, with addiction.
Atkins is a gift, a wonderful wonderful gift. It is the best way of eating I've ever encountered and feel so good on it! I can't tell you how much I enjoy the feeling of ketosis, and the goodness of that satisfying feeling after a workout. I've even come to love water!!!
I love the sense of accomplishment in committing to a mileage challenge in the exercise forum and making it happen. This month I committed after not having done so during my mother's health crisis and subsequent death. I just missed making goal by probably 2 miles....But I pushed it hard all month, mostly on the road running!
The farther you get on this plan the more empowered and energized you get, if you are eating clean, and have some distance away from the carb cycles...Keep pressing to get there, clean inductions, clean OWL, and exercise more and more, and it builds up to this lifestyle that is really so much better than the life I was living a year ago.
Go for it, make a committment in the exercise forum this month, put it in your siggy. Go for it, and do it all the right way! Tighten things up, and really press in for it! You can do this and the rewards will be a whole new way of living that can be sustained!
