        Yesterday was 5
        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.

                Ok ... somewhere along the way I messed up my days. I am just finishing my 12th day of Induction and 12th day cheat free. (I started on 12/26).

                  To join this challenge, just jump right in and start posting, counting every day that you have stuck to your commitment to this WOE. If you do fall off, come here and fess up and get immediately back on plan. Start counting the days and weeks again. Better yet, come here before you fall off and let us talk you out of eating carbage.

                  This is a pledge that I signed recently in a commitment challenge. I think it applies to this commitment, as well.

                  CHALLENGERS COMMITMENT


                  I promise to look honestly at myself and my WOE.
                  I agree to do my best every day.
                  I am dedicated to making my health a priority.
                  I will be committed to my challenges.


                  AMEN (so be it). I'm All In!!!

                  To keep it simple, I'm counting from 1/01/2009, since I don't remember exactly when my last cheat was. I've been on a modified OWL for a while now that pretty much of the time resembles extended induction. But this year, I do NOT want history to repeat itself as it has a tendency to be very self-defeating when I've started cheating and wound up wiping out months of progress in a very short time.

                                I tell you what, it has not been easy at work today. Someone brought a big box of donuts and then a big cake from Sam's for someone who was leaving. Very tempting, but I held strong!!!
