Re: Want to read something that will set you on edge?
Well I really meant it as a laugh for the day, although I truly did feel like strangling her...my first thought was that she is hardly eating anything, and then of course my second was that someone needs to call A.A.
I would have thought she was not for real, but no one seems to be reacting to it over there. Usually people post stuff like that to get others riled up, but since no one seems to notice that this girl is drinking her diet, I would have thought that...if she was a fake...she would have stopped posting by now.
And of course the other thing is that she only has a few pounds to lose anyway....

I remember the first time I went on Atkins and I finally got to the alcohol rung. Well it may have been a week or too early, but I was doing well and my girlfriend wanted to go out. Now I am no stranger to booze, while I am not anywhere near an alcoholic, I do like to drink occasionally, especially wine. Well after a dinner of fresh sea bass and heirloom tomatoes with mozzerella and basil (not very filling), I drank 2 martini's. I was soooooooooooo drunk. I could not believe it. I drank them in the space of about 2 hours. The next day I was so hungover I couldnt move. That had never happened before even when I have indulged in more alcohol. My body just completely rejected and reacted in such an amazing way I knew that drinking would have to be really light. I cannot imagine drinking all that alcohol. 15 shots would have poisoned me if not killed me. This girl is on the fast track to somethng very bad if she doesn't change her ways.

Re: Want to read something that will set you on edge?
TOTALLY agree! Every post just got sadder and sadder. What is this poor girl doing to her body!? Plus those people on the board....maybe they are just too polite?! But only a few people have actually responded to her. Maybe the rest thought it was too much of a 'attention seeking' post to bother replying. But that girl needs a slap into reality and face up to her drinking issues. I'm 5'2 as well, I could never get down to 8 stone!!

The worst part seems to be the fact that no one else on the board is saying anything to her...she's not eating on the Atkins plan, she's not eating in any kind of healthy way at all (fat fast/binging, no veggies), and she's replaced the water requirement with vodka...going down a bad street, that one is, and all they are giving her are posts of encouragement...only thing I see her being successful in is gaining all the weight back - plus some - and being the next name on the prestigious organ donor list waiting for a new liver...

I feel hungover just reading that haha. My idea of a treat on Atkins would be ONE vodka (and diet coke) but she had, what? 21 vodkas in the space of 3 days?! *clutches stomach*
Re: Want to read something that will set you on edge?
Three things: 1) never go to fatty patty's for dinner; 2) never get in a drinking contest wither her; 3) if you see her in a drinking contest, bet on her. Seriously though, it is sad if it is true.
Re: Want to read something that will set you on edge?
Actually, I read a bit more on that "other atkins" site since you sent us there to observe lol. And I want to go over there and send them all over here. Much more knowledgeable and supportive over here.
