    Two days in and I SO wanted to eat sugar funk anything

    I mean seriously today is my son's 2nd Birthday and I so wanted to eat anything with sugar in it!!! I didn't but I seriously had to talk to myself!!! What is wrong with me???? I am fat as a house and just want to eat crap!!!!

    today I had
    bacon & a chicken breast for breakfast
    cheese for snack
    afternoon snack I made some taco seasoned hamburger meat with a little bit of salad and avocado for lunch
    for dinner I'm having a salad & another chicken breast

    I'm really NOT hungry just craving the sugar and junk food...

    First few days are the hardest. You will get past it and you won't miss the junk...it just takes a few days to get the toxins out of your system that are giving you those cravings.

    Great job making it through the day though!!! Just remember not to limit yourself during this part of induction. If you have a craving, eat something you are allowed to eat...don't let yourself get hungry!


    Started: 3/2/09

    ~280~270~260~250~240~230~220~210~200~190

    Realistic Final Goal: 190
    Stretch Goal: 140


    Successfully did Atkins in 1998 using 1992 copy of the book...before it was "hip". Lost 60lbs, exercised daily, felt and looked great. And then I moved in with a junk-food loving man, my mom got sick and passed away, then I suffered a spinal cord injury, and junk-food dude left me...and now I weigh 292lbs. That's 22lbs MORE than I weighed the first time around. It's 10 years later...I know this will work for me again.

            I know what you mean about the cravings. My 3rd week in I was dreaming eating that stuff too. The cravings will go away and you will forget all about it when you get on the scale. keep up the good work

              I've been doing Atkins since September 5. While I haven't lost tons of weight (40 lbs)..I've lost tons of inches! Had do buy three sizes smaller in pants!!!) Never once cheated or strayed! I can now walk past ALL the "tempting" food at work without ever cringing! I can even say no to those well meaning people who say "come on, one bite won't hurt"! OH YES IT WILL...would have started me back to square one. Come too far to ever want to go back! Keep up the great work! It does get easier!

                I get and understand the force of those cravings. You gotta realize and know you DO have the strength to say NO to those cravings WHEN they come. And they WILL come. Saying NO is so worth it! You'll see. FIGHT ON!

                  Some people may say that when you have a craving, go make something legal that is similar, or think about what made you crave it and why, etc etc. Personally, I flat out push them away. Its awfully easy to imagine what it would be like, and thats the first step toward actually doing it. It is something that gets better with practice too. Today I've made ice tea with sugar, breaded hot wings, and poured dr pepper all for someone else, and the only thing that crossed my mind was 1. "ew i dont want to touch these" and 2. "ew he better not kiss me after he eats that" lol

                    Thank you all for so much support.. I apologize for posting and vanishing.... I do not have internet access at home right now and I haven't worked since Thursday BUT while I have NOT cheated I've had the most intense horrible 4 days ... my baby pitbull puppy is missing, I do canine rescue and he followed his mother and two other dogs out of our "secured" fence... the three adult dogs killed my 125 lb goat Danny he was my baby as well.. I had to put down all three of those dogs as they are not safe to adopt or have around so that almost brought me to my knees... and to still have my baby pitbull missing is just killing all of us.. my three kids are asking for him everyday.. my husband is heartbroken.. we are doing everything we know how to find him... if you please add Scout to the list to find his way home....

                    Thanks...

                      Oh wow I am so sorry.... We have a pitbull and what is strange is when she was a puppy and lived somewhere else she killed a chicken.. Here at my house the neighbors chickens walk all around and I swear the dog and the chickens are best friends.. they actually lay in the sun with her...lol

                      That being said if my indoor dog that is a Rat Terrier ever got loose he would tear the chickens up...

                        From one Pitbull lover to another,

                        I'm so sorry to hear about about all your dog problems. I pray that Scout finds his way home soon.

                        Its great to hear, even with all those stresses, that you did not cheat. That's a great accomplishment.

                          Cheryl, I'm sorry about the loss of your dogs. I will pray that you find the pup!! I had a pit one time named Giner. She died of parvo at about 2 years of age. She was gentle with all of us, but when it came to other dogs, she turned into a totallly different dog. We still loved her, but had to keep her chained up. Now, I have a Shepherd, a jack russle, and a blue hiller. They are like my kids. So, yes, I will pray!!

                          As for your cravings, just find something legal to eat, just like everyone says. After a few days, your cravings will definitely go away. You'll do fine!!
