Unhappy To meat, or not to meat? and other issues...

Ok, So last Thursday was one month since I started! I guess I can report everything is going pretty well.....even though I weighed myself on 3 different scales, I guess starting from the first time I weighed before Atkins, I have lost 18 lbs! Do I feel 18 lbs lighter? Not really ;/ I dont have a tape measure so I did not measure, but going from my clothes, its kinda weird.......My jeans were kinda big to begin with, but they do kinda feel a little more looser, but my tighter jeans are still pretty tight.....I dunno I make myself nuts!
The passed 3 weeks or so, I swear the scale goes from 237.5 to 235.6........but I feel like I am not moving..........I drink diet soda every now and then, I have been sticking to very little cheese, eggs, veggie bacon and sausage, Veggies, and meat and chicken. No atkins bars on a reg basis, and I added some pumpkin seeds also...
I wanna get moving again!!!!!!

Anyways.....This brings me to this question......Sometimes eating bacon, and sausage, I feel so unhealthy with allthe nitrates and sodium and stuff, and I know thats not that great either..I can tolerate the morning star farms meatless bacon and sausge and they have realitivley similiar carb count...But its like the point of atkins is that you CAN eat bacon and sausage right? I dunno, but I was just wondering if this could maybe contribute to my stalling...I have that a few times a week but not every day.

I just kinda feel like im in a rut and I need a darn woosh!

Also, I few times a week I have been having some atkins toast/bagels..not everyday, but when I need a quick fix or something...Or a quick meal like grilled cheese.......Could that hurt me?

Well thats enough ranting for now! I hope in the next few weeks I have better news!
