Yes, it's day two of my induction and I'm feeling pretty cranky!! Just ask my family!
I got Fitday set up which is fun.
I don't have a kitchen right now and our living room is empty as well as we recently had our floors refinished in order to prepare our house to list on the market.
So there are seven of us sharing a very small space and cooking with a microwave and toaster oven. The teenagers are getting to me! All the kids are boys and having them all in a small space is getting stressful and this is only day 3 of no kitchen. It will be this way for another 2 weeks atleast.
Also it's back to school tomorrow and back to work for me which is stressing me.
So why did I start Atkins now? I am just really fed up of my bad habits, low energy and addictive eating.
However, today, I really could have caved and told myself to wait until things are back to normal. We are moving to a large new home at the end of November but that is still 3 months away and I don't want to wait to take care of my health.
Thanks for letting me vent because today has been hard. It would have been easy to just cave into the carbs for comfort but so not worth it.
I think if I wasn't able to come here to vent, I really would have caved. Now I am feeling stronger. Thanks for 'listening'.
Also, I don't use artificial sweeteners except for the occasional starbucks treat so I'm really missing my sweets but I really want to break the sweet habit whether it's stevia etc. I went to the drugstore ( only thing open on labour day) to buy some cream and cream cheese and the chocolate was practically jumping into my cart! But I did not buy it. Pretty sad when you can hardly stand up to a bar of chocolate!!
