where Have I been???

[ImREADYImREADY]

I've been asking myself that same question. Seems like Thanksgiving took control over me and I was off Atkins!
Then my husband says "just wait till after Christmas" Well after Christmas we went on Vacation. So I stayed off Atkins for the vacation. Got home Thursday night and on Friday my 4 year old wanted to take a picture of Mommy. So when i looked at it I wanted to Cry. I gained almost 15 lbs. The Holidays were not nice to me and I have not been nice to my body.
Tomorrow we are having a cook out at my house to watch the Dolphins play in the playoffs. So I plan on starting on Monday. This time my sister is doing it with me. So we plan on helping each other. Making legal casseroles and splitting them so we don't get tired of eating the same foods.
This time I don't even want to weigh myself. I don't need disapointpments.
My starting weight this time is 196 how sad. I was 180 ish in October/Novemeber!!

Re: where Have I been???

you'll be fine on Monday...you recognize that you need to jump back in and start again - that's the first step!!

if you have any "legal" casseroles you'd like to pass along I have a pencil and paper and am ready to write...LOL!!

Good luck - I'll watch for your success story as you go along.

Thanks Liv!

So today is it. I weighted once this morning when I got up and I plan on that being the last time for awhile. My sister and Step mother are doing this way of eating with me this time and i plan to help them out as much as I can. In return it will help me stay on it longer.
Sad thins is the scale said 199.2 and not the 196 I thought. I now have 32lbs to lose to be at the weight I would like to be at.
But I know I can do it.
I also haven't been to the gym in 2-3 weeks so that will be starting again. I like having more energy and I always do when I am on Atkins. Gotta go and make my sister and mother some Oppsie Rolls!
Thanks for Listening!

Re: where Have I been???

I TOTALLY understand! I got done to 164 (not as impressive as yours!) and down to a size 10 before the holidays. After the holidays I was back up to 168.5 and squeezing into my size 12's. Ugh...so mad at myself! Anyway, trying my best to get back in the swing. I did okay yesterday with the exception of eating a cheese puff that my daughter was snacking on.

Good luck to you!
