Still doing Great on the No cheat. I'm really surprised it hasn't been all that hard.

Today was a Challenge. My Power went out this morning. A Transformer Exploded. It was out for around 7 hours.

So I took off at 11 this morning but knew I had to stop to get something to eat. I was getting Real Hungery and kind of Faint.

So I stopped at the Meat Market and got some Corn Beef and Smoked Chedder Cheese.

I went to a near by Park along the Mississippi River and parked under a Shade Tree got out my 5 inch TV and turned on Days Of Our Lives. and had 3 or 4 Beef and Cheese Rollups and Drank a Diet Pepsi.

Actually it was kind of fun. A Mini Picnic. So today i had all Total

8 slices of Beef 16 oz
8 slices of Cheese 6 oz

1 Liter of Diet Pepsi.

50 oz of water.

Default SO FAR SO GOOD DAY #10 HAS BEGUN....

Okay beginning day #10. I am trying to stay away from the scales also until Labor Day. At exercise yesterday morning a couple of the ladies ask if I was losing weight they said I looked thinner, we can only hope.

Bob and I are driving down to see my Mother today we have to see for ourselves how she is, sometime you don't get all the infor over the phone.

Richard, great choices and hopefully the electricity was back on by the time you returned home. Okay you said something about drinking diet pepsi, is is caffeine free?? Or do you drink the caffeine?? Just wondering. I drink Diet Rite. Have gotten on this kick lately of have heavy cream and splenda in my coffee, now what is that all about, I have always been a black coffee drinker.
My sister from MO gave me a set of Suzanne Somers video and audio tapes and she also preaches no sugar no white flour,but she does say it is okay to eat fruit, except banannas. Anyway I am not planning on jumping off Atkins but I do find her interesting.
Okay need to run, everyone have a great day. Tanya, I love your WF, that Sinnea she is way toooo sweet. Love to all joan

Default you guys are inspiration

You guys are an inspiration. I will be doing my own little chanllenge of no cheating until Labor Day even though this is the 13th. I have only had 10grams of carbs today. I had to break down and eat some peanuts. I will fill good if I can keep it under 20grams per day. Cher you are the greatest.
