[Biba21]

So here's my deal... I guess I'm a STAC person because I'm really trying to get back on plan after about four years. I guess I wasn't doing atkins right because was at 20 carbs for almost a good year, but I did what to lose a lot of weight.

Anyway, at 21 I'm trying to start again, and I guess I find doing Atkins harder than ever! All these rules about watching out for sugared meats and condiments hard to follow. I try to go shopping for my stuff on Sunday and found almost nothing I could put on my meats, all the mayo, bacon, sauage etc. has sugar in it!!! And I can't have the shakes too? I do recall that while I didn't drink the shakes till a little later on, I did eat packaged meats with condiments and all and had no problems with stalls till I was at 160. I was at 155 before I started to mess up after a trip to Europe.

I guess I'm having a hard time after learning more about the diet, it's really hard eating like this again after so many years, yesterday I tried induction again, and was bored with it at the end of the day. I was trying to buy mayo and salad dressing, but everything had sugar in it, even most of the meats, so what in the world can I eat!! I tried to make my own dressing but I find the oil and vingar tasted so gross. It's just so hard! I'm gonna start up again tomorrow and post my menu for you guys, I could really use llots of support trying again and thank you guys for helping me out in advance. I would go to the STAC forum but, I am new to all the detailed rules, and want to make sure I wouldn't be stalled. And excuse me for the rambling post.
