Re: Finding Me
What I have found with this diet is even if I am not hungry, you HAVE to eat. It is the metabolism part of the diet that makes the high fat and high protein aspects work. You have to eat something even if it is a nibble of cheese or some pepperoni slices, etc. I find when I dont eat that the scale numbers stay or increase and that is frustrating. You have to keep in process and make good choices instead of that bread! ( I do still want to chomp into a nice fresh loaf of pumpernickle...) You can do this!! You need to spend time on your spirit as well as your body. They all work together. Take some time to refresh you!

I'm back--to stay!! I actually started Atkins on Feb. 26 this year and was really pleased with my results. I completed the 14 day induction only. My Aunt passed away from cancer and I just kinda lost motivation to care what I put in my mouth. After 14 days of induction, I lost 7 lbs. I was truly happy, not hungry, not craving and no appetite. I'm working on finding other ways to deal with grief, because eating ANY-OLD-THING is not the answer. I started at 217.5 lbs and got down to 210.5 lbs in 2 weeks. Well, I was off plan for 17 days and now I'm up to 219 lbs. That's a gain of 8.5 lbs 
. AWFUL--I know. So, here I am. I'm still just as excited as my 1st post and very determined. I'm about to join FitDay and will start a journal before bedtime. I also plan to join some challenges for April. And---I've decided to read a good book when stressed. I read a lot anyway and figure this is a good choice.
Induction Day #2 and I'm just amazed at how easy this WOE-(way of eating) really is. I just absolutely love it. Yesterday, I actually managed to get in 90 oz of water. I was amazed at myself. The 64 oz is easy enough, but 90...It was a challenge, but I did it! It's just amazing the feeling I get from being in control like this!
before we're all at goal!!!
