I am finally through my 6 week stall!

While I had been cheat free from March 18, 2003 when I started Atkins until I reached 215 pounds in July-my carbs started creeping up. I lost 5 pounds slowly through July and reached 210 on August 3rd. I went on vacation and cheated for a week. I had felt frustrated and didn't think I'd been losing and tried to "shock" my system. It's been a struggle for two weeks to get back on track and not cheat with a bite here and there. In hindsight, I wasn't in a true stall, I'd been impatient and strayed from my plan.

I have been back on strict induction for four days and lost three more pounds as of this morning. Count me happy!

Now I am off on a three day retreat for work where meals are provided. Lord! I hope they have something Atkins friendly!

Congratgs! Bring that luck my way!
