    Cheating for me is eating anything outside of the induction menu and eating anything after 8:30pm.

    Thank You,Sherri
    Welcome FLSunShine, fat2fine and Sherri! The more people we have checking the better we all do! I know when people start falling beside the wayside and not checking in, I don't feel as dedicated to the challenge. We CAN do this together!

    Sunny!

      I'm going ahead and claim day 7 cheat-free and day 2 yeast-free, but I 'technically' cheated due to health concerns. Even though I wasn't 'able' to go out early this morning in 16 degree cold and volunteer at the Food Pantry, I did it anyway. It was really, really hard not to hit the coffee pot when it was so cold, but I didn't. I did take a bottle of very cold water and heat it in the microwave! I dressed warmly, but it was still freezing in that big warehouse building. After being there for five hours, I had to go get groceries and prescriptions. I didn't get home until 3:30, so I grabbed a bite to eat and then got into bed to try to get warm and get away from the pain. I didn't wake up until 7:15 p.m., which means I either 'cheated' by not eating my three meals per day or 'cheated' by eating after 7:00 p.m. So I ate.


      This not having anything hot to drink is really hard when it is so cold. The disorder I have, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy, gets much worse in cold weather. I even drank my first water when I got up this morning hot! It wasn't bad!

        Hi Sunny,

        I just saw this challenge. I would love to join. I will go 91 days cheat free. I started on Jan 1......so I am 3 days cheat free. Cheating for me is having sugar free candy, sewwt bread, or a low carb alcoholic drink, oh and too much cream cheese.

          Hi Sunny!,
          Today is day 7 cheat free days.
          I enjoy a cup of hot water with lemon once in a while. Lemon is a great diaretic and cleanser as well. Kudos for getting through the day!

              I thought about the hot lemon water this morning, but I didn't have much lemon juice. I do like it and I don't need Splenda in it as I love 'sour'. I got lots of lemons and a couple of limes at the store today, so I can try that out tomorrow.

                  Yesterday was day 76, sounds like everyone is on track
                  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.

                    I'm not really sure why it is a diuretic, but it works really well. You are supposed to drink it in hot water for it to work. It's supposed to help detox you, too.

                    Way to go on the double digits! Woo Hoo!

                      Day 8 cheat-free and day 3 yeast-free diet. Today went better because I made a big pot of soup, so not having my hot tea or coffee wasn't as important. I got in 55 minutes of exercise, so I will make my weekly goal of 250 minutes!

                            I'm on day 9, cheat free, and I'm down another two pounds!
                            The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast:
                            the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.

                              Today is cheat free three for me. I went too long with out eating and went for the coffee, had a sip or two and stopped because I want to be able to report that I am cheat free, plus I do not want to start induction over again. I stayed over at work for overtime because I got behind and then I went too church. So I had not eaten anything since around 12 and then I had some greens about 3pm and then I went to church about 9 pm and then home about 11pm and had a boiled egg and turkey bacon. So I think I am okay.

                              Cheat free.

                              Tomorrow Morning I am going to balleys and get on the eclipical machine .... How great is that?

                              Well I will let you know when i am in ketosis
