Hi all.
I left and did weight watchers for awhile.
It left me binging on food and craving sweets and carbs all day.
Well I am back for good.
I now realize that I need to get rid of all the processed junk from my diet!
And that includes ALL BREAD.
I am having a "carb party" for myself tonight.
My home has a few sweet goodies in it; so what ever is not eaten or tasted by 11pm will be trashed! at 11:05pm.
You made the right decision. At least that is my opinion. My mother loves Weight Watchers, but I know it would never work for me. Atkins helps you NOT be hungry. I think any diet that allows too many carbs can't possibly do that. Not for me anyway. I just get crazy and need more and more once I start. I used to lament that you can't just "abstain" from eating like you could if you had an alcohol or drug addiction. But thankfully with low carb you can abstain from the foods that make you the most hungry and out of control.
I say this as I sit here eating low carb white chocolate!
Glad you're back Cara. I am too. I had a 'carb party' for myself for Superbowl XL... It felt good to throw that stuff in the trash. Now I've set my serious goals I have a big box of Ritz crackers I didn't open, so the neighbors get those and the seagulls get the loaf of bread. PS It didn't help the Seahawks lost. LOL I'm so glad we have 3FC so we can all get together. Sonny
I'm sorry that your experience with WW wasn't better. I did it a few years ago and did OK, but like you, I still craved sugary\starchy stuff. On Atkins I see stuff and it looks good, but I have to see it to want to it. It's not like before when I'd think about chocolate until I couldn't stand it and went to the store and bought 3 or 4 candy bars or made a cake. I know WW works for a lot of people, it's just not my first choice. I NEVER felt as good, as energized as I do since I started on Atkins.
Glad you're back with us, I hope you do very, very well!!!!
I'm back for MORE
