    1st Week Down

    Well... I finished my first week. I was going to wait a while before I weighed, but the suspense was killin' me. I stood on the scale this morning and found that I have lost 8 pounds. I have never lost 8 pounds in a week before in my life. Needless to say I was quite excited as I stood there staring at the scale. My daughter and I went to the Golden Corral for dinner today. (I love that place!) I was enjoying my chicken breast and my roast and I made the comment to her that it sure didn't seem like I was on a diet. And, ya know.. I think that is why Atkins works so well for me. I can eat all of my favorite foods. And, not just some lil dinky portion of them that wouldn't fill up a bird. This way of eating works. I don't know how or why I let myself stray from it as I did. All I know is that I am so very happy that I came to my senses and that I am losing once again. This time... it is forever.

      Wow good for you! 8 lbs is a huge deal! Keep up the good work. Atkins is so far from a diet..it is a WOL and once we realize that and commit to it for life, we keep the weight off.

          Isn't it great, you feel good, you are loosing weight, and you can eat great! I love Atkins! I love the foods....
          You are well on your way to loosing fat! Did you take your measurements, because they will continue to reflect fat loss....Big weight loss slows down, the the inches melt on this ketogenic diet!....

                  Fantastic Job!!

                  What I know:
                  1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
                  2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
                  3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
                  4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.
