It got the best of me (PART II)

Re: It got the best of me (PART II)

Well I don't know what is wrong with me, but this next post just may be a buzz kill! lol
I feel very happy and proud to be on atkins and to have done so well! But in the last 2 weeks Im feeling poopy! Its almost as like I'm gaining weight back or just severely bloated! I haven't really changed anything and I only add one new food per week really. Sooooo whats going on? I feel terrible...discouraged and just blah like why bother anymore...I know this is a terrible way to think, but its true!
Im sure its due to me working crazy shifts these last two weeks and no sleep in between, and no rest etc.
But its really bothering me! Ahhhhhh anyways sorry to bust your fun time...just looking for some pick me ups and looking for advise on how to beat the frustration of the bloat and the fullness feeling!
Any ideas?

Jules Off the clown convention now! lmao see ya'll there...

You're not a buzz kill. If anyone is a buzz kill it is me.

I have days like your talking about. I feel just bloated and fat and no energy at all. I am always positive if I weigh I would be 5lbs up but usually I have lost weight. I don't know why we feel that way but I hope you feel better soon.

"Fact. Bears eat beets. Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica."

Sorry I just watched that episode of The Office.

Atkins will sometimes "back up" on you. I truly think that hormones have a lot to do with it. Just my opinion. If I am really feeling bloated, I have an all out veggie day where 90% of what I eat is a veggie. I know, I know... Messes with the percentages, but that is just what works for me.

Re: It got the best of me (PART II)

Woohoo for you!

Dh and I are off for our Sat shopping trip. I get to go to Lowes and Home Depot and I am excited (rolls eyes) then we are off to the pet store to get supplies and I think I will make him stop at the mall and check out the clearance sales. I need a new pair of Coach shoes and a purse and Macys is having a sale. (insert hubby rolling eyes now)

Tonight he is going to grill me some ribeyes and asparagus for dinner. Hope everyone has a great day. I will try to check in later.

You know how I love that back swing. Did you finish up all your feather dusting?

I finished up a lot of my work this morning... too fast. Now I have to take it easy this afternoon so I don't get too far ahead of myself.

I am a bonified Coach Addict. I will post pictures of my last shopping spree when I have time to sit down for a few minutes. Macy's proved to be unproductive but DH gave me permission to order me some stuff online at Coach.

They are having a huge shoe sale so I grabbed

Tessa Python Sandal
Felix Buckler Loafers a white pair and a Black pair
Evie heels in black

I ordered 2 new purses
Straw Charm Tote
Floral embroidered Audrey

Can't wait til the stuff comes in.

Last month I got a Kristin Satchel, Coach Watch, Tribeca Tote, a pair of loafers (forget the name) a heritage stripe laptop bag, umbrella, make up case, wristlet and I forget what else. Like I said will post the pics of that haul later. I always take pictures that way I have them for insurance.

Re: It got the best of me (PART II)

must be a coach weekend...my nephew was showing off his coach wallet yesterday. Personally, I'm the opposite of an 'accessories whore', and I hate shopping - I like expensive shoes, just don't like to buy them very often. I'm more the clog, birkenstock, backpack kind of gal

congrats on the weight furley.

Hope everyone is having a great day. I was up WAY to late last night - concert was fabulous, but very 'tired' this morning. Hub did make me a great breakfast, so I'm happy.

Jules - we all have those days. There are some days I just want to say **** it! Actually the Boot Camp challenge really made me re-focus and I feel great again. I'm sure a beautiful day on the golf course will help with your mood.

have fun all - I have to figure out what 'house' project I need work on...or want to work on.

Re: It got the best of me (PART II)

Barrnone I'm with you!
I can't get into accessorizing, sure the stuff looks nice, but Im pretty low maintenance when it comes to shoes and purses and junk! Lol I like to shop for clothes, but I have 1 pair of shoes for each season...boots, runners, sandals, dressy heels and leather knee boots! Thats it for my collection, 5 pairs of shoes...lol
Furley congrats again.

Confession...Golf was soooooooooo fun, but I cheated I ate nacho chips! I haven't had any in about 3 months...today I feel guilty but will continue on through the atkins.
I might step back to owl 1....just to get myself back on track! I dunno.

I took some funny videos on the greens yesterday, involved with goose pooh right beside my ball, some poor shots and some wacky jokes! Good times...

Have a happy rainy Sunday

Jules
