Big Daz's Atkins journey so far

re: Big Daz's Atkins journey so far

Great job! You started right around the same time that I did, so I've been following your progress as motivation for me. Trust me, I know the feeling of being completely tired of meat, eggs, and cheese. For me it's the eggs. I'm sooooooo sick of eggs, but they do fill me up. How do you like My FitDay? I just noticed it and thinking about joining it.

Wow I am glad to be a motivation to someone!

I find FitDay quite useful just to verify on a day to day basis that my carb intake is where it should be. I've used it from day one of Atkins to track my weight and measurements too.

I have got quite lazy at filling it out lately however. What I tend to do is jot down whatever I eat during the day in a notebook and enter it on to the computer before bed. Last night I ended up having to add a whole weeks worth of entries at once!!

A tip with Fitday is not to rely on all of the foods that have been preloaded in the system. Very often I have to create a custom food to model the carb intake which my supermarket say is in the food. Sometimes there can be quite a difference.

I am currently 225lbs so I am halfway to my next goal at the moment

I've added a link to my weight loss blog in my sig below. Sorry it's not more entertaining, but it's just really a place for me to jot down my thoughts as I go along. My only reader so far has been my wife! LOL

On 224lbs now. Just 4lbs to go until my next goal. I am going to get back into the gym this week, hopefully I can reach my goal before the 20th Jan. Wish me luck!
