I discovered that it really easy to get back on board and do this for a second time.
I discovered that I actually really like Spinach!!
I discovered that its better to trust the tape measure than the scale.
I discovered that I like it that Atkins is no longer 'fashionable'.

Aren't discoveries awesome? Especially when you discover you house stays clean when the kids go back to school, which gives you more time to workouts...yyiiipppeeeee

Ok...so I had a huge boost of energy today and I used it.

Yup Liz...a promise is a promise and I'm doing it!!!

C25K this morning...did 90 seconds running 90 seconds walking for the 20 minutes...pushed myself and just did it...and I feel GREAT!!!

Then since I still had unused energy I did 82 ab crunches and 15 mins of stretching, push ups and weights on the stability ball!

I have discovered with this WOL that I'm free from symptoms of IBS.
I have discovered that I feel and look better and have more confidence.
I have discovered that planning ahead is the key to a more stressfree life.
I have discovered that taking time for ME is important.

My list could go on and on and on....Life is great and I'm thankful for a healthier happier me!

Ok...off to have a nice bubbly bath then to the mall with my daughter for a bit. Have a great weekend my friends!

I've always felt like you get alot more out of Atkins than just weight loss!

Happy Saturday All!

I've also discovered another 1# gone this morning. Yesterday while I was at Fred Meyer I discovered my favorite addidas for 50% off so now I too have new running shoes- for when I am ready to start the c25k again.

I also discovered that I am catching a cold/flue but instead of starting in my nose it is starting in my eyes. I noticed my right eye hurting and giving me blurred vision earlier in the week so I made an appointment with my eye dr. But last night my whole face was itching and I can tell that I am getting sick. This am I have a stuffy head and a snotty nose

I will stay in and keep hydrated, rest, and try to eat today.

Unfortunately for me thats not true, as I am a teacher and I start back to work next week ,,,.... So my house is probably as tidy as its going to get right now.

I'm checking in late today, but that's because I've been on the go since 6:30 am. Put in my longest kayak paddle to date, feeling pretty good, but not great yet. I'm certain that I am having some serious candidas die off, I know I had it before I started this woe, I've known for years, sinus, and bowel troubles that are slowly resolving themselves with the help of this woe and a new multi vitamin with probiotics. I am sore and beat and didn't step on the scale today, hoping for a wooshie tomorrow.

What have I learned? I've learned that I REALLY don't like processed food, I only eat it out of convenience.
