  • Re: How Long Can You Go???



    If someone gets something out of my journey, that makes me very happy!

    To be honest, I never thought I'd LAST on Atkins, much less see such an amazing change within myself. I've been gradually losing more as I move up the rungs and that amazes me too. I most definitely did not think that would happen!

    I know that things are different with everyone on this WoE, but when people ask about moving up the rungs, I'm all for it! When I was still on induction I was scared to death about upping my carbs because I thought I'd completely slow down...Joy (ValidRouge) and Sillygirl convinced me to start climbing and I'm grateful for that!

        Umm.. Ralynda, I'm pretty sure that wouldn't be much of a punishment!!! I think I'll just start baking laxitives into the cakes I make

        You Dh is such a sweetie!!! Have a great day!!!

              You know, dieting and losing weight used to take up so much room in my mind too and I was always planning what I should eat, etc. I don’t really do that anymore. Maybe because I’m comfortable with Atkins and don’t plan on changing, I dunno. I do still plan meals occasionally, just to make sure I have everything, but I know I don’t need to be so occupied with it. You’ll definitely get to a point where the only thing you’re worrying about is the best way to make your DH laugh!

              Roxy – Way to go to the hubby for sticking up for you! Sometimes that the hardest thing for them to do when it comes to their family. Hope you gave him extra kisses! Very proud of you for passing up any and all temptations they threw at you. You’re doing so well!

              I’m doing very well. Exercising consistently and eating right. My DH made me teary this morning. We always email each other in the morning just to say ‘good morning’ and today he replied with “Oh, I know I never say things like this to you, but I am proud of what you are accomplishing by working out and eating better. “ That just completely made my day.
              Mornin' or should I say "Afternoon"?

              (I've had pages up all morning trying to get to all the new posts here and on the board...it has just taken me a while.)

              Yes, my DH is fun to be with and pretty crazy and creative. When I'm brave I may let him take my picture, add fangs and a moon just to be funny. It took me many moons of being here before I would even post a picture...somehow I've gotten more comfortable, I guess, because everyone is so nice.

              I'm with you on Roxy's DH!! If a man takes up for his wife (even with his parents) that is a BIG, HUGE PLUS in my book. Most men favor their mothers and women favor their fathers so if a man will put you first (over his mother), then I feel their priorities are in order. He sounds like someone I would respect.

              What your husband wrote would have made me cry -- it makes tears well up in my eyes now knowing that he is so sweet to email something like that to you. You have a good one too, ay? I love hearing about the nice things that the husbands do for their wives and vice versa.

              Congratulations on being so diligent on your exercise and eating. I truly believes exercise makes a big difference in your results on this program.

              Well, it has taken me probably an hour to complete this one message...due to interruptions here at work (can you believe the nerve! )

              Hope you are having a GREAT Thursday too!

                              Hi everyone, I am late checking in today, cleaning closets, and organizing life...I went somewhere this morning too, and can't remember.
                              I am having such a great day. Yesterday I was exhausted and today I am just fab...
                              I am eating clean and happily on my 3rd week of induction...
                              I loved reading Christine, 1poundatatime's progressive weightloss as she went up the rungs, that was a huge encouragement for me. There is this line I have heard it from those who have been around along time and have reached goals...
                              "stay on induction if you want to loose weight faster"...go up the rungs if you are fine with things slowing down. Since I have no weighed, I am wondering which way to go, I feel so good, rarely have a craving at all. The only thing I sense I need is something creamy...cool and creamy when my stomach has a little heartburn. I drink water, but there is this tiny longing for something creamy. I might get some cream and add splenda and have it there....but I have not done that yet.
                              All is well on the southern front!
                              74 8/1/06
                              SW225/CW142/GW135 83lbs GONE!
                              2 YEARS and 9MONTHS!!! I've been here

                                If it wouldn't have been for the fact that I was at work, I would've been crying. He very seldom says stuff like that, he's normally an action type of guy. I knew he was proud just by the way he's been acting, but to actually have him say that just meant the world. He sure can be a sweetie when he's not holding me down and letting the dog attack me.


                                And I think we're all being silly today cause it's so close to Friday!!!
