      Well, I'm going to restart my counter. I found out some of the things I was eating had hidden sugar - just about everything, actually (mayo, salad dressing, even SAUSAGE?). I went to the store and restocked on things that didn't contain sugar in the label *or* in the ingredients. Since part of my personal definition of "no cheating" is no sugar of any amount (as it should be for Atkins), I'm going to rewind. It may not have been completely intentional, but I need to take responsibility for reading the entire food label for everything I ever put into my mouth from now on.

      My "no cheating" definition:

      - Pure induction foods only (no nitrates or hidden sugars)
      - 12 glasses of water a day (gulp!)
      - No more than 1 diet rite soda can a day.

      And at least 1 hour of exercise 6 days a week. Back to day 0, now onward to day 1...
      It's amazing where all they put sugar! Even turkey breast is shot up with sugar in the "all natural" solution it is injected with. It's hard to find anything without sugar, so you have to read the fine print on every label. Even iodized salt contains dextrose. This is why I stay as close to unprocessed foods as much as possible.

      Luckily, here in the South, we can get Duke's sugar-free mayo. I got a terrific deal on 3 jars last month and yesterday I won a free jar, so I am stocked up on sugar free mayo.

      Sunny!

          Let's do it, Jane! A two week, cheat free induction!

          Day 2 for me. Yay!

          I can't wait until the six week exercise challenge is over so I can weigh! I actually have to weigh before then, at the doctor's office. I wonder if I can keep from looking?! The appointment is a week from tomorrow. I won't count it anyway, I figure about that time, I will be on my period..so there. (I'm telling myself)

              I think if we all stay cheat free until June, that Jane should invite all the skinny girls to the hen party. Sorry, Blue, you gotta go to a rooster party.

                Okay, I don't even know what day I'm on, but I'm on a roll! I did 95 minutes of exercise today and all of it was super-duper calorie burning. Yeah me!

                    What I know:
                    1-Atkins WOE/WOL plan works
                    2-I need to always work on the behaviors and triggers that make me over eat.
                    3-Atkins WOL is part of the puzzle, but is not the entire thing.
                    4-Self-deprecation only feeds our inner ego and not in a good way.

                                I love the challenges ~ not that I'm competitive or anything ...

                                Today is day 24 for me - 11 pounds gone forever - and I have 53 days left for my first "goal" day. No cheating allowed!

                                I'm in it to win me back.


                                I KNOW I CAN...I KNOW I CAN...I KNOW I CAN!!!!!
