Post Well.. my weekend OFF of Atkins....

If some of you may remember I put a post up last week about how Ive been stalled for about a month at 180 or so, only 10lbs from my goal.

I made a decision... I was going to go off Atkins for a weekend and then start induction all over again on monday, tomorrow. Im also gonna start running and some excercise.

My parents rented a cabin at Lake Tahoe, NV, for the weekend and I figured why not make it this weekend to relax and make it my "weekend off". So... I did it.. I cheated all weekend for 2 days. I didnt go nuts like I thought I would and matter of fact I had a REALLY hard time bringing myself to eat carbs. I mean.. dont get me wrong.. I DID eat a bunch of carbs but I was still finding myself limiting how much. Example.. my father brought a bunch of Coronas and lime.. I found myself making my way into town and buying a couple 6'ers of Ultra for the weekend. I was still drinking Diet Rite instead of Soda..... and I was snacking on deli meats and cheese instead of carbo-junk. My worst meal was on Sat night, we went to Chevys *mexican food* for my fathers 49th b-day. I had 2 shrimp and crab encheladas (sp?) along with a single corona and lime.

Anyways... even though I cheated I was still stuck on watching SOME of the carbs. Even though I cheated I dont feel any better that I had cheated, I kinda thought Id feel happy or giddy about having a good cheat, I dont and I dont feel thats a bad thing either. Maybe its my body and mind coming to grip with the fact that the Atkins WOE is the right way to eat, cause Ill tell you what, those few oreos I had this weekend didnt "hit the spot" at all.

Well.. back to induction on Monday.. darn.. back to Grilled Steak, steamed veggies, and bottled water. *sarcasm*

I love this WOE.

FYI... I got on the scale late this afternoon.. Im only a lb heavier then I was when I left on friday.
