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

    Well, everyone isn't doing great. I had three really bad days and caved to some really bad stuff--each day after staying straight all day. I am now back to my "nothing after dinner/7:00 p.m." rule. That worked for over two years, I don't know why all of a sudden I started eating after dinner again. I know that I probably can never have any kind of bread without going bonkers. That's how this all started. I made a loaf of bread with nut, flax and soy flours and I made chicken salad. Sweets were never my downfall--it was bread and sandwiches. I couldn't stop eating 'sandwiches'! I eventually ate the whole small loaf over a day and breakfast the next morning. It was very low carb, but high fat and high calorie.

    Sooo Day 3 done...one more time. Now that I am back to my exercise schedule, I don't even want to cheat.

    Sunny!

      You know Sunny, You're so right about nothing to eat after dinner rule. I believe that has been very key with my weightloss these last 74 days. It really cuts out alot of eating I found myself doing at night. That and stopping the sweetners. Cravings are gone!
      I can't have any sweetners without going bonkers. I can so relate to you and your bread.
      Hang in there sweetie! We're all rooting for you!


      74 days for me.

          Hi Sunny-Sorry you had a few bad days, but glad to hear you are back on track. I do agree with your no eating after a certain time rule. I find if I eat late, even if it's little, it's generally to much, and then I start wanting to eat everything.

          The one area that worries me is bread also, I haven't even tried any of faux breads, b/c while I was never really addicted to sweets, I too really like good bread, bagels, etc..

          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.

            Hi everyone

            Diva - congrats on your weight loss!

            Sunny and Sherri - I think I'm going to have to copy your rule because after dinner is my 'danger zone'. So for now, nothing after dinner/9.30pm - I eat very late because I'm often out and kickboxing. When that happens I tend to eat 'dinner' before I go and lighter 'lunch' after. I am going to have 1 night a week 'off' as a treat and see if I can cope with that. If I abuse it entirely I'll cut it out.

            Day 8 here feeling good.

                Alexa, Great plan! It's a great rule to have. Nothing to eat after dinner. It's been very key to my success. It will be for yours too.

                          Day 170 down, been struggling the last few days. Need to pull it together, I think for the next few days, I am going to drop down to 20g. As well, I need to get more exercise in.

                          Take Care everyone.
