Meen- Beena...I love your deranged reality comic...

Well good morning...Here in CA it is 7:30 AM. I am feeling kinda burnt out, but that is due to the studying and housework. Anyway I am truckin along eliminating my 3lbs/wk. Oh that feels so good. I get less bummed out with the scale dropping at a more gradual rate. I am on Owl rung 1.

My cardio routine comes to a halt on weekends, but I still go for walks.Back to Mon-Fri routine...woohoo...

Ok have a great day you guys...see tomorrow AM

Good Morning!

Day 8 of induction levels and feeling pretty good! I can really tell a difference when I don't get the water in during the weekends. It's so easy at work, we have a water cooler and I keep my cup filled! Workout at Y tonight. Last night cooked up items for a few days to keep prepared although I've had a diminished appetite so that helps also!

Back to work for me, wishing I had off today too!!

Heidi- I exercise at night also, it's when I can best fit it in. I don't have any problems sleeping, it give me energy for an hour or so after and then I sleep great!

Happy Monday!

Congrats Sandy for getting thru a weekend CHEAT FREE. That's awesome.

I have yet to start my exercise regimen; my goals this week are:

1. Start exercising!
2. No cheats
3. Stop the insanity of getting on the scale. I know I shouldn't and seem powerless to stop myself. That is OVER. No weighing until next Monday when I'm thru induction.

BTW, I'm very inspired on the exercise front from reading everyone's posts. I swear I'll join your ranks today.

Thanks. Pre-baby I used to make them and I owned the derangedreality site where I'd put them up for other people to use.

I miss making them and my PHOTOSHOP but baby comes first. Maybe when she gets a bit bigger I'll have more time for them.

Re: Monday Roll Call 10/8/07

Good Morning, this is my first day of re-induction...lol. I am shooting for a super clean one. Measuring, no frankenfoods (not that I was into to those anyway), tons of water. I am going to start a journal to help me stay on track. Crazy candy, food, parties -season is coming up fast. I want to be well into this WOL before all that hits.

Good Morning STAC'ers,

It sounds like most of you have had a good weekend! Good for you guys!

I had a not so good weekend. I am pretty sick with the flue & still have TOM. I wouldn't wish this on my worst enemy. The double whammy

I have gotten in all of my water, but still feel dehydrated. I can't taste the food I usually enjoy and I have no energy! I know I will feel better as soon as the flue moves on.

Hello everyone. I am a bit grumpy this morning. Daughter got her blood work back and they have scheduled an appointment with an Endocrenologist (sp) She is 32 weeks pregnant with twins but has had some weird symptoms. Her white cell count is high and there are high thyroid antibodies. This has me on edge because her father died of complications due to Systemic Lupus. I am having trouble coping with the stress. I have mandatory overtime at work to complicate things. I am also Bipolar. If I get through this and stay with the Atkins plan it will be a miracle. It looks as if I have lost another 5 pounds since my doctors appointment on September 28. I think I need a new scale though so I am not sure. I have to go and cut up my snacks for work . I will try to degrumpify for tomorrow

Re: Monday Roll Call 10/8/07

One symptom of Lupus is a LOW white blood count. A high one doesn't indicate the disease. That's from our nurse. Just hang in there. Pregnancy hormones do a number on the thyroid.

HopeJoy - Hang in there! TOM is just ending for me and yes, it's a bit challenging! LOL Eat more if that helps, just make it legal!

Re: Monday Roll Call 10/8/07

hi guys,

linda hang in there. lots of explanantions for the bloodwork on your daughter.

nice to see such a big thread today! i had another bad eating day, meaning, i didn't. i NEVER EVER used to be someone who 'forgot' to eat, but lately, man if i am not physically hungry and work is nonstop, i have no idea it is 'time' to eat until 8 pm!

don't want to screw up my metabolism so must make concerted effort.
