Atkins Induction Day 100
 

100 Days on Induction today:D

:congrat: Larry!

Fantastic job, Larry!
You are certainly an inspiration to us all!
How are you doing with adding fat to the meals? Have you tried coconut oil?
i bought mine from Costco at a fraction of the cost compared to a regular store. Now, I need to use it for cooking not just as a moisturizer hahaha
Keep up the good work!

FickleHearts,
I hope your husband finds another position. I am a teacher myself and wish you two the very best!

Have a great day everyone!

Just yesterday I bought coconut oil at Walmart. I checked the label to make sure it was not hydrogenated. Now I have to learn how to use it. I also bought old fashioned lard. I know how to use that. I scramble my eggs in a generous amount of either butter, bacon grease, beef tallow or lard. Recently I started adding a table spoon or two of mayonnaise to the cooked eggs to increase the fat. The taste and texture is similar to the egg salad in egg salad sandwiches. I eat it with a spoon out of a bowl with salt, pepper and tabasco.

Congratulations, Larry..

Thanks skelley.. congrats larry and everyone.. everyone is doing awesome!!!


I got to relax yesterday, I decided I'm not going to worry about my eating today and take a day off, so I ate bologna and cheese sandwich on 100% whole wheat bread and pork rinds, hung out in the pool and drank 4 miller beers and for supper I made regular bbq chicken and cole slaw and for bedtime snack I had 2 bananas. my fitness pal said I had, 1587 calories and 128 carbs for the day.. and this morning the scales said I lost 1 pound and 4 ounces... :?: Maybe I shook it up a bit, I don't know.. hopefully tomorrow won't be a gain... oh well we will see... Have a great day everyone..

Congratulations candy on the loss! Well I gained yesterday :( but that's okay, I spent all day tilling up my flower gardens, pulling weeds and spraying weeds for about 3-4 hours and was sweating my butt off, boy was I sore this morning! My fitness pal had me burning 445 calories plus I did 8,060 steps for another 76 calories burnt! I fixed a pot roast :D with potatoes and decided I was going to eat the potatoes lol and had a small slice of pecan pie and yes it was yummy! So I too ate off plan but didn't feel guilty! I ate 1,779 calories and 55 net carbs but only gained .8 oz's so that's not bad! :carrot:

Tomorrow will be a better and new day!! :)

Well..... Didn't stick 100% to my diet on vacation, but I didn't gain anything, held at 228. Thurs I had some popcorn and a beer, Friday, two pieces of cake, mashed sweet potato stuff, pina colada, diet coke and rum, and another beer. Saturday had a small mocha latte, but then nothing to eat until late that evening.

Yesterday:
L - steak and egg
D- hamburger steak with onions and gravy (my only carbs all day, so I'm not too upset about the gravy LOL)

Not sure what I'm doing today yet. I'm still recovering from the little I did do over the weekend! Sticks say I'm back in ketosis, so YAY!

We're thinking about doing a cruise in October. I wonder if I could make Onederland by then?

Atkins Induction Day 104
 

I rode my Motorcycle with friends 240 miles yesterday in New York along the Hudson River and up into the Adirondack Park. We stopped at the Dinosaur BBQ in Troy for lunch. The only thing on the menu suitable for Atkins was the chicken wings (not breaded) so I ordered the bakers dozen. 13 wings. At home in the evening I fixed scrambled eggs cooked in lard to increase the fat content.

It must have been good choices because this morning I am down 3 more pounds to 250 even. I am knocking on the door of the 240's. :D:D:D

Beautiful job, Larry!
FickleHearts, you can do it by October. Nice job not gaining. I hope you enjoyed your vacation!
skelley331, your garden must be beautiful!
Like you said, another day. Sometimes, switching it up leads to weight loss like in Candy in Alabama's case. Sometimes, it doesn't……..one never knows.
Candy in Alabama, glad to hear that you relaxed and enjoyed the little break by the pool.
Yesterday's food intake:
black coffer, water
roasted chicken with salad (all kind of veggies)
cheese
roasted chicken again with greek salad and sautéed veggies (in butter).

Today's plan:
black coffee, water
2 fried eggs in oil/butter
roasted chicken with salad with oil and vinegar
grilled hamburger patty, no bread, sautéed spinach, salad

Have a super day everyone!
