          Lol FBG.. Hang in there. I was given candy and I tried to give it away and no one would take it. I can resist it though.

          Day 14 for me going well. I had a large rib eye lunch before my husband went to work.

          I have been checking out the Lose Those Love Handles challenge, the pics are rolling end for end challenge. I hope they do another, I am going to do it because I already have a pair of jeans I need to get into!

            I'm glad I never did like candy or chocolate! I spent Valentine's Day in Charlottesville at the surgeon's office! Ouch! That hurt pulling the gauze off two foot-long incisions. I am a free bleeder and slow to heal, so much of the incision was still open and bleeding. At least it's done right this time!

            Glad to see everyone resisting the carbage!

            Sunny!

              Sorry you had to spend the day at the surgeons office Sunny - hope your Valentines Day got better. I normally don't have an issue with candy (We can have halloween candy in this house till the next halloween and no one will touch it except guest)... However, when you are talking STRAWBERRIES that happen to be drenched/covered in chocolate that would be another matter - but I stuck with it and stayed strong even with hubby and skinny child eating them in front of me ((And positive side - no one had to get hurt))

                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.

                  Happy Heart Day Everyone!

                  Today is 25 days cheat free. Nothing to eat between meals or after 5 p.m. This was my third day without splenda or any sweetners. (just to see if I can manage without it) So far so good!
                  NO CARBAGE FOR ME TODAY! I had heart healthy salmon for dinner instead.

                      Yikes FBG - that is cruel and unusual - good for you for not giving in!

                      Sunny - Sorry to hear about the pain. I hope you heal up as soon as possible.

                      Everyone is doing great! Jane - nearly at 20 wooo!

                        I made it through also. Day 14 for me.

                        At least my family knew not to get me anything "good" that I couldn't resist. I don't know I would have fared so well having strawberries and chocolate next to me. I adore them.

                        Have a good weekend everyone. It is blowing up a storm here so I am staying inside!

                          I have been strictly eating on the plan since 2/13. I made the mistake of not re-reading the book and when i started on the 1st of feb I actually started in rung one (had too many veggies). I couldnt figure out why the weight wasnt falling off as easily as last time I did atkins. Till I stopped and examined my diet menues.

                          So clean induction started 2/13. No cheats or slips at all so far. No intentional cheats since feb 1st.

                          Ill count from clean induction point the 13th! on day 3

                            3 days cheat-free. I was really sick yesterday, so no check in. But I didn't succumb to comfort food. I just drank hot water and tea to feel better.
