Thanks for the support and I have started my journal on the Atkins site. Too lazy to do it on multiple sites. Also, I downloaded a program called Weight by Date which is a great motivational tool. It calculates when you will hit your goal based on your average daily losses.
I have some questions that I would love some input on. I usually have a big protein shake for breakfast and lunch out of convenience (very busy at the office) which has 0 carbs. I'm not a snacker but try to have some protein whether it be a shake or piece of cheese every 3 hours. At dinner, I will eat with my family so it was a porterhouse last night with creamed spinach and small salad with lemon vinaigrette. Now will the fact that I don't eat carbs until dinner sabotage my diet in the long run? Also, my total carb count never exceeds 15-20 grams.
I have dieted enough to know that initial weight loss is water but wanted to really understand about the ins and outs of the diet before continuing on this schedule.
Let me know.
Thanks
Nancy
