    I understand Sunny. I wish you all the luck. I wish I had some answers to give you but I don't. All I have is encouragement. I will go over to your journal and check it out. Congrats on double digits!!

      I'm back. I got *very* sick the last few days. I had to have a professor drag me out of my office because I was too sick to work, but I'm a psychotic work-a-holic. I ended up not eating much of anything, but what I did eat was very very bad: crackers and ginger ale. Big mistake, and I KNEW BETTER! But..as I often see posted...we can't change what we've done.

      Back to day 0. I'm also going to try cutting out any diet rite soda from my diet. When I last was wildly successful on Atkins (longgg time ago), I did 100% water. I'm going to try that again.

        Hope you are feeling better, all you can take care of is the future and keep trying.

        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 will also be working at the pizza place my husband manages to help out for superbowl sunday so I will be around the most carbs EVER. Don't worry though!! I can resist pizza and calzones (barely) but there is a place next door that does fire grilled chicken that I love way more than pizza. My weakness there will be the soda. Coke is my fail point most times. I will be sure to have lots of good water.

          Have a great day everyone!

              They make hot sandwiches there too so they have meatballs and if I get really hungry,I take some foil and put roast beef, cheese, and mushrooms and slip it in the oven. I will be good.

                      Hey Jane,

                      thanks for the encouragement Yes I have a weekend away Fri-Sun at a conference. Tbh I was thinking of just cheating until it's over but I have a kickboxing grading the weekend after and want to feel better and less bloated for that. I'm not feeling 100% convinced I can cope with the conference, so this week seems kind of pointless.

                      BUT, I'll try. Back up to 13st is not something I am happy about.

                        Where's your conference??? Not up north? I could bring you food daily if it is!! hehe!!!

                        I'm out on Saturday night, but I know I'll be driving, so staying sober and in control!! Its normally after I've had a drink that it all goes pear shaped!!!

                        Yes I was on the door step of 13st too Alexa and had a panic attack!!!

                        Maybe we need to arrange another "get-together" that we can all slim for??? lol

                          That's not a bad idea!

                          The conference is in Windsor. I think I'm going to pull out all the stops and just do what I used to - pack lots of legal nibbles and choice wisely at the dinners.

                          Urghh - isn't 13st just horrible - I hoped I'd never see it again!

                                I was good at the Superbowl Party (kind of stinks my Patriots loss, oh well, what can you do).

                                Dropped 2 for the week. Yesterday was 107
