    STAC Roll Call - 11/11/09

    Good morning everyone.

    This is a new one for me.... and I hope I'm not coming down with something like so many others. But when I rolled out of bed today, all my muscles felt fatigued. My eating is spot on, maybe a bit low in calories at around 1200-1400, and I'm having trouble eating that much. And I'm drowning myself with 100-120 oz of water, and I'm in the veggie challenge. Hmmmmm, we'll see how the day goes.

    I find if I don't get the veggies in some days I feel weak too.

    Some days I just can't, I do try my best to find different ways to get them in. I find I have no appetite these days after my cycle. I eat only because I must. I'm drowning in water too!

    So, I'm here and on board! Can't wait to weigh in on Friday!

      Here and on plan. Still up about 4/10ths of a pound from my weekend disaster, but its not too bad, I can take the punishment.

      Getting ready to go give blood, I am taking a small bottle of v-8 juice. I know it has some things in it that I'm not supposed to have yet like carrots, but I think it is better than the orange juice or soda they will offer. It also has a few carbs for boost if I need it and lots of good minerals so I'm not going to consider it a cheat, but rather a precaution since I haven't given blood in awhile and have had low blood sugar and low potassium at times in the past, hopefully it will be enough to keep me level and I'll try water first when I'm done and only drink the v-8 if I feel I need it.

      Have a great day all!

        Good day to all - still up at 232, grrr, but also dealing with my sunday slide. I also seem to eat a ton of food yesterday in the veggie challenge - but my numbers were fine. I'm feeling a little bloated today and a little moody - strange, but trying to work it thru. Extra water and plenty of veggies - will be good to go!

        Good luck Kntrylady - wishing you well!

          Hello Guys and Gals!
          Today is the start of week 2 of induction for me and things are going well. I have lost 6-7 lbs depending on the mood of my somewhat unspecific scale.
          Yesterday was the first day I felt really tempted to eat something that is not on the Atkins plan. My folks came in town for a visit and my sweet mother brought a large container full of her "famous" homemade muffins and a large Ziploc bag full of soda crackers that had been prepared with some spices and such- (I know that recipe sounds weird, but they were a favorite snack of mine at one time- total carb overload). After my parents left last night and everyone was in bed, I logged onto this website and began reading different threads. I wanted to plan for dinner tonight so I concentrated on the induction food recipes. The recipes sounded really good and I started wanting to eat something. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I noticed the bag of soda crackers. They were calling my name!! I tried to ignore them but they kept staring at me, calling out louder and louder. In a hypnotic trance I reached over and held the bag. I looked closely at the crackers, each seasoned just right to satisfy my craving. Without thinking, I was ready to open up that bag and take only one single cracker. I had begun to rationalize that only one single cracker would not matter that much. Then something amazing happened! I "woke up" from my dazed auto pilot and had a rational thought (!!!)- the thought that I would be harming myself if I caved in and ate off plan. I realized that I would be discouraged after I ate a cracker and furthermore that I would actually not just eat a single cracker but probably half of the bag full. Also, I understood that I was only drawn to those darn crackers because they were prepared by my sweet mother whom I miss seeing very often and I was having an emotional response about the food (food=love) and because they had been left out on the table in plain view . Sanity won out and I put the bag of crackers in the pantry and cooked myself an egg-in butter and enjoyed eating it instead!
          I think if I keep examining my thoughts and emotions before I go off plan, I will be able to avoid eating foods that will hinder my weight lose.
          I hope all of you have a great low-carb day!!!!!
