Good Morning Everyone,
Well, diet wise the home thing was an unmitigated disaster. I cheated the whole way through on cashews and LC chocolate. Then as the grand-cheating-finale on Monday, for breakfast no less, I ate pretty much everything that had been tempting me all weekend. The worst part is that it was wonderful. People say that when you don't eat carbs for a long time they dont taste as good, but I hadn't gone anywhere near carbs of this magnitude in almost three months and they tasted amazing. Okay, that's not really the worst part. The worst part is that I don't even feel that guilty about it. It was something I wanted to do, and I did it. I'm worried my motivation is slipping. So, for the time being breaks over, and it's time to get back on track now, but I'm going to have to find some way to re-structure my eating plan for when I come home over the summer as this weekend has proved that I obviously can't handle induction level atkins. I wish I had more time for personals, but its finals right now and I've got to get some work done. I'm thinking lovely thoughts towards all of you. I'll try to check back later. Hope you all have a wonderful day.

Oh! Oh! Pick me!

How about stir fry, or fajitas, or shrimp scampi, or spaghetti squash primavera, or a big ol' chef salad, or lc clam chowder, or shish kabobs, or taco salad (sans shell), or homemade chow mein, or lc enchiladas, or alfredo sauce + meat of choice on a bed of spinach, or pork chops & jicama 'apple sauce', or any of the great recipes at www.atkins.com (you can search by phase!)

I hate feeling like I'm out of options. And I firmly believe that anyone who says that Atkins is too difficult because you end up eating the same stuff over and over hasn't thought about it enough.

UGH!!!! Where'd my post go? GR. I had posted my "wrap recipe". It's latortilla shell, flip some lunch meat, lettuce, cheese (I might add peppers and onions some other time) and away you go. Simple and good for occassions.

I also mentioned I had taken the day off. Posted this morning and then started to not feel well. So went back to bed. I'm feeling better now but still headachy.
Hope you all had a great day!
