  • Celebrating my happiness!

    FINALLY I'm doing the atkins diet right!
    It took alot for me to understand it but I understand it now and from the past 2 weeks ive lost 5 kilos!
    Someone on here told me I was having to much meat, they were correct ofcourse so now I make sure I eat ALOT of fat (abit sickening, but so worth it) and only one serving of meat a day.
    =] Im addicted to fitday and im eating the right amounts of everything!

    Its so weird, before, when I was gaining I was eating aleast 400 cals less than I am now.
    And now I can easily wake up at 6:30 in the morning and do 45 minutes exercise =]

    Im so happy =D thanks everyone for helping me understand this.
    Its really hard for me cause everyone else around me can eat whatever whenever and not gain a thing >_> teenagers right?
    And with all the eating disorders ive been through it gets in your head that calories are everything and that 'weak' feeling is your friend
    =] boooyyyy I was wrong.
    Ready for change

    Great to hear you are on the right track
    Keep up the good work!
    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
    Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

        Glad you feel more confident with this. Grats on the weight loss!

        I need to get back to using fitday again. I haven't been good about sticking to it.

        Keep up the good work!

            Good for you Jennifer. I know it took some figuring out for you. Glad you stuck with it and worked out the Hows and Whys.

            HW (this time) 248
            GOAL ONE 228
            (take 2)
            GOAL TWO 213 (personal goal)

            It's not about the results. Its about the process.

                    Oh cool..I have seen the shoelaces but don't have anything like that. Just slightly obsessed with them.

                    I love the new album too. I actually really like 21 Guns, but also East Jesus Nowhere..oh I don't know..I like them all. lol

                    When will you see them in New Zealand?

                        Its exciting. The concert I went to in New York City was my first Green Day concert. I can't believe I waited so long to see them. I don't think anything can top that.

                        Are you in the "Idiot Club"?

                          Wish I was, My Dad won't let me join cause he says its a 'waste of money'
                          >_> parents just don't understand these things..
                          Im so excited for the new 21 guns video to come out though, ive got like goose bumps.
                          Its weird, you wouldn't think Billie could look hotter and hotter every time he ages but he does it.
