    I'm still around

    Hey folks,

    I'm still here and going strong! My grandfather passed away on Monday night. Family who live in town were able to be with him. Out-of-staters were unable to come in. I held strong with all the food my aunt brought in and all the temptations of sweets. I held strong with the anxiety eating and stress eating. I held strong with 2 days at the funeral home and even tonight with nothing fixed at home to eat - and you all know how on Atkins you have to FIX just about everything you eat!

    I'm very proud of myself and it has boosted me to more confidence in that I CAN do this no matter what life throws at me.

    My grandfather was 91 and lived a very long, full life!

    If I can do it..anyone can!!!
