    Good luck on extending induction Kelly. I absolutely used to love fried rice. I am going to have to give the recipe a try!

      Oh! Day 26 for me. I have gone almost the whole month cheat free. Just a few more days and I can declare March a cheat free month for me.

      I have been toying about going up to the nuts and seeds rung so I had a teaspoon full of fresh ground almond butter. I am going to see how that sits today and see if it gives me any cravings.

        Day 24 for me! Exercising helps me stay on track. Somehow, after going through the trouble to exercise makes me not want to mess it up by eating when I shouldn't. I have my goal clothes hanging where I can see them the whole time I am exercising. That's enough to make me step up the pace while exercising!

        Recumbent stepper: 30 minutes
        Floor exercise, part with stability ball: 15 minutes

        Wow! It's 9:45 p.m. and it's still 60 degrees! It was 25 degrees two days ago!

        Sunny!

          Okay, where is everyone??? Day 25 done and I am glad. My nerves are stretched as far as they will go.

          I cook when stressed and today I cooked enough for an army. It feels like I ate a lot, but when I look back to my food journal, it wasn't too much, just high calorie comfort type food. At least it was all good. I took the homemade Italian sausage I made the other day and made Italian sausage stuffed cabbage rolls and it was delicious!

            oh, I shoulda been at your house. I was hungry today!

            I had some almond butter and I ate some. It was very pure, fresh. I ground the almonds myself in the machine in the grocery store. I don't know how I am going to do with it because when I ate it, I wanted more and more. I hope it isn't a trigger food for me. I do think I am in a bit of PMS state right now.

            Day 27 for me.

              Hi Sunny and everyone

              Well, I've been awol for a while, on and off the wagon. So thought I'd come back here if that is ok and get me some accountability.

                It's not only okay, it saves me tracking you down and dragging you back, kicking and screaming! Welcome back!

                    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 loving this WOE. Although I've experienced no losses for a week. I suspect it's because of TOM. This is my first time experiencing it while doing Atkins. I'm still stoked, because I feel better, I'm resting better, and if I'm hungry, I eat. No deprivation, starvation or anything. (Except having to pee a lot more!) You know I originally planned to do Atkins for the last two weeks of Lent, and then I was totally gonna cheat on Easter. That really was my plan. BUT YOU GUYS talked me out of it. So I thank you all for helping me stay on plan for nearly 3 weeks. I've never done anything close to this much discipline, EVER! I'm really proud.
