    I had my cable cut off over 7 years ago, and I don't miss it a bit. All those Technicolor images of food make you want to eat, even if you don't like what they are showing. I even skip pictures of food in magazines. Makes you want to eat, even when you are not hungry.

      Day 10 cheat-free. Day 5 yeast-free diet (free of coffee and tea, too!) I'm not having much of a problem giving up the yeast-causing foods, but the coffee and tea thing is still bothering me a lot. I really do miss my mayo and dijon mustard on my beef and pork roast I've been having. 9 more days of that and then we'll see what I start adding back in slowly.

        Day 79, today was weigh day, so -2 for the week
        Have a great Cheat Free Week everyone
        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.

              Day 6 cheat free for me. I gained a couple of pouds due to water weight/sodium. I used a recipe that I found for induction but the amount of soy sauce in it is ridiculous. I just noticed when I back tracked to see what was causing the weight gain. That's the end of that!!

                Hi Sunny,

                I must have missed this new thread - but a great idea for the new year!

                I'm in for cheat free counting and commitment.

                I like to have a target as you know, so I WILL be reaching it this time. Aiming for 169 days minimum. This is not to say I can cheat after but I work best with a goal and by the time I get there I'll be loving this WOL!

                Today 4/169

                  Good to see you check in, Alexa! Having a large group of committed challengers helps keep all of us on track. I'm going to be completely cheat free until goal and beyond!

                        What do you mean "hope"--just make up your mind that you ARE gonna do it! You'll do great! Welcome to the challenge!

                            I am still cheat free 7 days. Hopefully tomorrow or one of these days I'll be back to my ticker weight. This sodium is killing me. I am drinking as much water as I can to flush the sodium monster out.

                              Dr. A recommends L-Taurine for fluid, so I ordered some. It got here today and after taking two, I have lived in the bathroom! It is still making me thirsty. I've already had 160 ounces of water, so I have to stop so I'm not in the bathroom all night. I'm just sipping now.

                              I'm 11 days cheat-free and 6 days yeast-free diet. I still miss my coffee! Doggoneit!
