  • Low Carb Treat!!

    I have found a great Candy bar...yes I said Low Carb candy bar!! It's Pure De-lite, I love the Milk Chocolate Crisp. It only has 3 carbs per bar and it is yummy. I buy mine at Walmart and the price is reasonable too.

  • Hi girls!!!!! 6 pounds gone in 12 days!!!!! YIPPEEE!!!!!!!

    Yesterday I ended up with no time for breakfast or lunch so it consisted of a mixture throughout the morning and afternoon of cottage cheese, 1 can of chicken, beef jerkey and some cheese.
    Last night I had a stuffed pepper fixed in my crock pot. With a snack later of a serving of peanuts.

    Of all the things I could miss on this plan as far as pasta or beads, my weakness is ketchup!!!! I gotta figure out some way to make some that is carb friendly!
  • Wow, you girls ROCK!!!!!!
    Everyone seems so jazzed about whatever program she is doing. It's great that we are all getting on track and loving the results. It is always easier when we hold ourselves accountable to each other.

    Debbie, Free day doesn't bother me at all. I don't go nuts, but I'll have a TCBY sugarfree yogurt and we usually eat Chinese food after Church. Sometimes I'll have pizza or a cheesburger, but I don't usually do that until I've been on program for a few weeks.

    Gayle, I don't know what to tell you about the ketchup as we probably don't consume a whole bottle in a year's time. I'll do some research though and see what I can come up with.

    Jeanne, I know what you mean about feeling funny about all the food you are eating. I was really hungry Sat. nite and had a plate full of ribs from the bar-b-que place and a huge salad. It was great!

    It's kinda funny that I'm doing this WOE again. About 15 years ago, my OB/GYN suggested I do this plan. I lost 70 pounds while on it. He moved away and I changed Drs. He is know back in town and I have an appt. with him in May....and here I am back on Atkins again!!!! If I reach my goal, this will be that smallest I've ever been while using him as a Dr.

    Keep up all the good work ladies! I'll try to think back to some of the creative recipies I used way back when. I can remember making a chocolate cheesecake and some type of gluten free bread.
    Btw, if you love Mexican food, one of my favs is to cook a big ground chuck patty on the George Foreman, pour a chunky, spicy salsa over it and top it with a dollop of sour cream....yum, yum!!!

    I am soooooo ready to make this a great summer! This year is my 25th HS reunion and my hubby's 30th!

    Later floozies,

    _________________________________________

    Although I still feel great, not much on the actual lbs. lost this week. My total is 10 since Feb. 24. At this rate, I may not make my 11 lb. goal for this Easter challenge. I have been visiting another support board on AOL that is all about Atkins. They have an acronym over there call PISS---post induction stall syndrome--maybe that is what I have!

    On the plus side, I can squeeze into some non-stretch size 13 jeans and I have been working out at my gym like a fiend. I took a spinning class yesterday at lunch and felt fantastic.

    Have a great weekend everyone!!!
  • Jeanne

    You are doing great, please don't be upset if some weeks you lose more than others. Did you measure before you started? I'm sure you have lost inches when not much weightloss shows up! Size 13 jeans....That's great~
    I love those Adkins sites, they even have a chat room on one of them.
    What is spinning? Walking is my thing, after I get the house cleaned I'm going for a long walk.

    Have a great weekend...Deb
  • Jeane, I know it gets frustrating when the scale doesn't move, but hang in there. Sometimes I'll go for days with nothing and then....in the words of Emeril......BAM!
    As long as your clothes are fitting loser, then you are accomplishing your goals. You can't always go by scale weight...there are too many factors that can cause fluctuation.

    Enjoy your walk Deb....what a beautiful day!!!!!
  • Evening Ladies!

    I didn't stay right by plan this weekend, think I went over my 20 carbs yesterday and today. {today we ate Chinese}. But I'm sure I didn't do too bad.
    My weigh-in day is going to on Mondays. What day are you Easter Challenge floozies going to weigh-in? I'm also going to excerise everyday this week, since I'm off work.

    Hugs...Deb
