    Re: 2008 How Long Can You Go??? Challenge

    Thanks Blue!

    Kiddos, I am actually having trouble getting all my food in. My appetite took a dive. I am making a conscious effort to eat more varied veggies and not just lettuce and spinach (ah, I love spinach). My ketostiks have been very dark even with drinking 100 oz a day. I noted on fitday that my fat was about 70 or so %, protien 25% and carbs running around 3%. I am working it out though! If you guys have any ideas, you can peek at my fitday. It probably looks better today.

            Hey!

            Congrats to all who have stayed cheat free

            I had a bit of break through weekend - I was staying in a hotel and alls the meals were provided (no choices!) and the food was awful! Really not tasty but also very carby. I ate what I could, left what I couldn't and ate the eggs, cheese and veggies I'd packed. I was so pleased I'd planned ahead and it worked - DAY 8 . Feels like last Summer when I did this sort of thing a lot. Hopefully I can have a clear run at 169 now.

                Jane, I know I need to venture out on my veggies because I am eating the required amount it is they just don't seem to have enough carbs! It will be pretty sad on my part if I stall from not eating enough!

                Alexa! Good job! Most people would have used that as an excuse to cheat because they had "no choice" I don't even know if I could have withstood that. Excellent. That's what planning ahead can afford you. I need to learn how to do that better. Although, I did make me some quiche in muffin cups for my breakfast these next few days and that's a start!

                I went all day yesterday cheat free so that's day 10! Yay for double digits!

                  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.

                      Hello Cheat-freers! I had my surgery today and looks like he did it right this time. Last time, I couldn't lift a cup or glass to my mouth for over a week, but I could do it right away this time. I am in very little pain, for which I am grateful. He said the recovery time would be a good three months or more this time, but I think it will be less instead of more.

                      I managed to get bunches of legal foods cooked ahead and stored where I can reach them, so I have no reason to cheat. I can't put my hands above my head for about two weeks, so I had to put dishes on the counter and foods on the middle shelves in the fridge and freezer.

                      Keep the days going!

                      Sunny!
                      People who say it can't be done, should not interrupt those doing it.
