Hi all,
Been a while since I posted (been really busy)! Imstuffed, I need to go back in time to actually give you the time frame that I lost weight (I know I started around winter time), now I lost 27 pounds, yeah! Menopause has been an obstacle for me but I'm still losing, maybe not as fast as others but the weight is coming off, Atkins really works!
I know I said this before and I'll say it again, to me Atkins is a way of life not a diet. I still don't miss bad carbs and the rare times I feel like something sweet I make scrambled egg(s) and add the Waldons sugar-free pancake syrup to it.. I have been eating more veggies than ever and drinking lots of water especially in this heat (no, I'm not complaining as I remember the snow storms when I had to go out and stock up on Atkin foods. Basically I eat very simple, eggs, chicken, hamburgers, veggies, and my weakness is mayonnaisse which is good because this diet works better with a certain amount of fat. I am still careful with cheeses (don't eat too much) and I finally started to eat some almonds, love those so I need to use self-control! If they become a problem, I will stop eating those.
Sarah, how are you doing?
