I'm having such a hard time keeping up with posting !!! WOW!

I'm doing fine... although today I could not seem to eat ENOUGH! I was so ravenous all throughout the day. I don't like that feeling because I end up feeling out of control.

I hope everyone is doing better... I'm hanging in there!

another no cheat day yesterday and that was even going down to my Moms. Beginning Day #11. Am going to go exercise in about 40 minutes.
The amazing thing is my neice and nephew-in-law (Coty's Parents) and Coty are all doing the Atkins. I was so amazed when my sister told me this. Also my sister and Mom were questioning me about the Atkins and Ruthann was going to get the book last night. Wow a couple more converts.
Everyone have a great day NOT CHEATING....joan

just checking in,
 

Welcome to new challengers and hello to my fellow challenger. I just to report while I can that I have not cheated as of this morning. I want to thank everyone for their support and encouragement I could do it without you all.
Donna :wave:

Good Morning!
 

Good Morning everyone! Although I ate yesterday like there was no tomorrow, I'm happy to report that it was all LEGAL!

Today I am hoping that my hunger will not be as bad...and that if it is, I will turn to water first then food if still hungry. That's my plan!

I'm hoping for a whoosh tooo... keep your fingers crossed for me!

:rheart: Heather

Checking in again.......

I'm happy to report what constitutes a "whoosh" for me!! Another half pound down!! And needless to say....I'm still "on the wagon" and haven't given in and made another cheesecake!

Thanks to all of you for being here and giving me the encouragement and support to do this!!

YaY for all of the losers in this thread! :cheer: :cheer: Together we can do it!!

DONUTS BAD!!!
 

OH GOSH!!! My co worker jut brought in what looks like a TRUCKLOAD of FRESH, soft, sweeeeet donuts!!!! They smell SOOOOOOOOO goood. BUT I KNOW they are BAD! I know that even if I were to have a small piece, it would send me into a downward spiral and I would be off this wonderful, succesful streak that I'm on....EVEN THOUGH I HAVEN'T LOST A SINGLE POUND!!!!!!!!!!!! But I'm not bitter. :mad: Who needs a donut and 10:00 in the morning anyway??? Those things'll kill ya'!

HELP!!!!!!! :help:

:wave: another no cheat day for me yesterday!!!!!! wooooooohoooooooooo i wanted to just go on a binge so baddddddd last night.....some real stressfull personal stuff went on yesterday......but i resisted and ate an extra chicken breast with hot sauce and butter :) :thup: :yum:
I know what you mean about donuts...one of my daycare boys brough some here to share for his birthday last week..........mmmmmmmmmm they smelled sooo good and i even had to serve them and resisted licking my fingers when i got frosting on them....i knew if i took even one taste that would be it.
You can do it starchile !!!!!!!!! Just think about how much better you feel without them and treat yourself to a non food reward for resisiting :)

Hello everyone, well so far my second day of no cheating and Starchile we have donuts in the building and after the big boardmeeting the donuts will come to my office. Our office gets all the carbage leftovers, I should feel so privilaged. I don't know if anyone else happened to see a documentary on this morning on A&E. The documentary was entitled Supersized Generation, it was talking about the epidemic of our oversized youth. This was very interesting to me, that had an 11 year old girl who is a typeII diabetic and I was screaming at the tv give up the carbs.

Well this thread really does grow quick, but I love being able to take small breaks and come to the tread and get inspiration.

Mrs. Louisville KY it is nice to know that someone near me is doing Atkins it seems like I am the only one in Bowling Green that takes it as WOE. Starchile I haven't been posting but I realize that I need this forum I need to come somewhere, where people share the same ideas and struggles it helps so much. Talk to you guys later.

Thanks for the welcome!
 

Good to be here! I've decided NOT to weigh myself til Labor Day, as some others here have decided.

I'd like to say that you all have lovely pictures in your signatures and by your names. :)

Tesia, I'm glad you were able to stay upwind of those dirty-dawg-donuts. They tormented you briefly, but you wished 'em into the corn field forever! :lol:


And we will ALL continue opening cans of WHOOP BOOTY!


It Is STILL On! :cool:

Another good day here....YEAHHHHHH. No cheats today. Menu in the journal.

DAY 11 DOWN !!!!!
 

And still NO CHEAT!!!!!!!!!! :yay:

Came in at 30 carbs today ... way higher than I like, but I was also enjoying some desserts today (leftover Chocolate Peanut butter pie (funny story in my journal - so I don't have to worry about that anymore)and Strawberry Margarita cake...) :yum:

But I still haven't cheated ... have been close the last couple of days, but boredom didn't catch me!!!!

Talk later all ... looks like everyone is doing smashing!!!!

Love ya all!!:rheart:
