Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Hey Catrina, I can see the weight loss in your mid section. It must feel good. YEAH!!

Intuitivebap, congratulations on your weightloss also.

Thinsoon. That is my fear about going up a rung. The lasttime I did Atkins, I gained weight once I added more carbs (2lbs) and then eventually lost them as a couple of weeks later, then the weightloss continued. You may need to give it another week. I am staying on induction until I stall. And then moving up. That's what has worked for me in the past.

Jenn...2008 I am so jealous. I love Red Lobster. Yumm Yumm!!

Sherri: I see that you are doing well, we are both on day 9. Although I had a cheat when I restarted so I've just lost the weight from my binge. Hopefully this second week will shoe a weightloss for me.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Hahooo !!!!! I purchased and served a birthday cake at work today.. ate none... Went to an Boy Scout Eagle Court of Honor with.. you got it, more cake and cookies. Just stayed away from the table and didn't eat that either. I looked at it and thought, Not worth losing what I've started here. And then I thought that I would have to come in here tonight and tell on myself and decided it didn't look that good.. Told you that you guys were good for me.

Glad to see that you were a success today too Caternia. Hawaiian rolls would have been hard for me.

I'm very proud of everybody on this board. Keep it up!!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Wow...I am so impressed with all of you and the way you are working your WOE to make it happen. You're right, you are good for each other. This is what the ADBB is all about, people helping each other to be accountable, learn and make healthy changes in their attitudes as well as their life-styles. Congratulations to all of you!!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Sherri and Marty for not giving in to temptation!! I'm proud of you both!!

Good afternoon everyone!! How is it going for everyone?

Ok, today's events! The same woman who threw the major fit because I wouldn't sit in a carb-laden room for 2 hours walked by my office this morning just to tell me that she'd brought in fresh donuts (did I mention I was the first office she stopped at even though my office is not the first one in line). I just smiled sweetly and said "thank you". Oh, did that hurt? Did you not get the response you wanted? Why are people so malicious and rude (not to mention calculating)? Yeah, I know it's wrong to fight but I wanted to knock her out....not because I wanted the donuts (have no craving for them, nor do I want them) but just because I could tell it was planned as some kind of revenge tactic. However, I know being so sweet and polite to her when she said that hurt her more than knocking her out!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Even tho I've been on Atkins for 3+ years, I still occassionally deal with people who just don't get it.

I've made it into a game to play with them. I always have MY SNACKS with me, I politely decline and offer to share mine with them. It's true that if you kill them with kindness...it takes the fun out of trying to torment you. Don't be fooled...they are watching you and probably jealous as they see you getting smaller and smaller as their clothes get tighter and tighter.

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

HAHA - Great response! By saying Thank you she might even be under the impression that you are going to have one! Joke is on her! WTG - stickin to your guns!


Day 19 for me - took out atkin breakfast bars and the pumpkin starting today so we'll see if that was the culprit! I know I've lost inches already so I'll keep it up, plus now it's a big challenge for me - I know I can do 31 days! Then who knows!

Hope everyone is having a great Friday!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Hello Everybody!!1 I am saddened to say that I have fell off. Eating can be such an emotional comforter. I got some devastating news last night(and am still dealing with it) and as a result turned to a Wendys Frosty. At this point I am just frustrated with this battle. Granted I was doing this to just shed some vanity pounds, but I needed the change and I have failed.

As much as I am down, I am going to start over from the beginning. I know that Atkins works. I know that I can do it... I just need to be better prepared I guess. My will power was so strong, but not strong enough. I dont know what to tell myself, but I just wanted to fill you guys in, seeing as you all have supported me on my journey!!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Catrina: Good job..kill her with kindness! She's hating...is she overweight?

Intuitivebap/lesszmore:It happpens to all of us. Dust yourself off and try again. My will power is so weak sometimes, I feel myself praying. You can do it.

Martylaine: Good job, don't know if I am that strong just yet. I haven't been faced with strawberry shortcake.

Thin soon: How much are you down now?

Dreamof142: Your an oldtimer now. LOL Good for you keeping it off. I hope to keep my weight off this time around.

Sherri; I'll be hitting you up for more recipes. YUM YUM!!

Re: 14 Day Induction Accountability Thread

Good evening everyone! I'm going to keep this brief because my eyes are crossing from tiredness. My car stopped in front of my daughter's school (talking about major stress) and for the first time that I can remember I wasn't wanting to eat my frustrations away...in fact I didn't want to eat at all. Thank God for little brothers who figured out it was the battery (someone else told me it was the starter). I now have a running car again. I also praise God that a friend was there (who normally isn't) and gave my daughter and me a ride home.

Intuitivebap, like I've told others...you're human. As humans were prone to err. You are doing great by admitting that you're human and by jumping back on the wagon (you didn't let it trample you). You CAN do this and we're always here to support you.

Dreamof145, Tracey, and Kassoria...I'm surprised the look of disbelief wasn't written all over my face when she told me about the donuts. Kassoria, no she's not overweight...she's actually quite skinny. Maybe she wants to rub it in that she can eat junk and stay skinny (for now, karma will catch up with her). Who knows?

Today's stats: 80 oz. water (not so well today)

Breakfast:
-Bacon
-Eggs

Mid-morning Snack:
-Turkey Breast

Lunch:
-Steak
-Salad
-Celery with cream cheese
-Ranch Dressing

Dinner:
-Steak
-Broccoli
-Salad
-Ranch Dressing

Late Snack:
-Pork skins

Hope everyone did well today!! Later!
