    LOL You knew I was going to be coming after you! If a new baby is in your future, even more reason to get the weight off and get used to the Atkins WOE for life. Things will be hectic with a new little one in the house. It will test your resolve. You can do it!

      Yesterday was day 140
      40 year old male 6' 3"

      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.

        Aw Sunny! -hugs-

        Hang in there. You are really doing great. Isn't it funny though, even though you feel bad about cheating you feel worse about coming to the thread and say you cheated! That night I took a bit of ice cream, I thought afterwards "man, the guys are going to be so disappointed!"

        I appreciate all the encouragement I get here and I can honestly say, without this board, it would have been very difficult for me to have gotten this far.

              Thanks Roger! We're rock'en and roll'en now!

              48 days cheat free/ 26 no sweetners/6 days no weighing
              I decided not to weight untill the Century Club Challenge is over on the 21st. This last Challenge with No way No Weigh really put some things in perpective for me. So rather than weighing, I used my tape measure and measured my waiste today. I was suprised to find that I've lost an inch on my waiste since the first of March. I'm jazzed!

                I was going to come fess up that very night when I was still mad at myself...then I decided to wait until the next day. I even opened the thread a couple of times, but chickened out!

                Day cheat-free, day 5 yeast free diet. I had a yummy day. Today was the first time I have ever made Hollandaise sauce, and it was super good. I had an omelet with roasted asparagus and Hollandaise sauce for breakfast. Yummy! I also rode my recumbent stepper for 20 minutes.

                Sunny!

                        Day 7 cheat-free, day 7 yeast-free diet over and done! I'm actually enjoying the things that I can have on the yeast-free diet this time. It's not so bad when you research and find new yummy stuff to eat! I had that melt-down and cheated for nothing!

                        Sunny!

                                Day 8 cheat-free, day 8 yeast free diet over with. I had to go to Charlottesville to UVA to see the surgeon today. I am completely released. He said I can exercise, but wanted me to have a personal trainer. That's not going to happen. I had to eat lunch at 11:00 a.m. to make it to the appointment on time and didn't take anything with me, thinking I would be home in plenty of time. Things never work out as planned, and I didn't get home until after 6:00 p.m., and I was starving. If I let myself get that hungry, nothing fills me up. I just finally made myself quit eating and went and did 30 minutes on the stepper to take my mind off food.

                                I PLEDGE TO MY CHEAT-FREE BUDDIES TO NOT EAT ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL BREAKFAST!

                                Sunny!
