So something interesting keeps happening...regularily after I run (30-40 mins) I get a really really strong ammonia smell in my nose. I've researched it on the net, ad have found that it's the biproduct of protein metabolism, in the kidneys... which has me sort of baffled. my current %'s are around 30% protein, 50% fat and 20% carbs...which has been my maintenance %'s for some time. This issue has recently just started..and I'm not sure why. If my body has run out of carbs for fuel ...
I've decided to make this blog my main journal.... I've been keeping up with my running, though this past weekend the 100+ weather made that really difficult to say the least! Eating wise i haven't been great, so i need to work on that. I think my weight is holding steady, I will weigh again this wednesday. Bought a small fan yesterday and have the a/c on today so hopefully i'll be able to get in a good run. Was paged ...
STARTED MY INTRODUCTION STAGE ON MAY 28, 2008. IT'S JUNE 08, 2008 AND I HAVE ALREADY LOST 10 POUNDS!!! YEPPE FOR ME!!! IT'S BEEN HARD TO FIND JUST MEATS AND VEGETABLES THAT DON'T CONTAIN ADDITIONAL ANTI INTRODUCTION ADDITIVES...LOL BUT, I'M SEEING CHANGES IN MY FACE AND WAIST. I GOING TO ATTEMPT TO POST MORE PICTURES.
Life is ewww right now.. Things will get better I'm sure!
So in support of me, my hubby signed me up at his gym. It is new, opening next week, and it has....everything! yoga, a pool, tv in the all the machines, a cafe, even acupunture! I get two free sessions with a trainer, and they will measure me out, body fat and all. Last time someone put one of calipers up to me was Gr 7.... and I was so embarrassed about it. I am a big girl now, and I am really ready to face this head on! Massages, tanning, Saunas, and steam rooms....with my new healthy ...
Well, here I am. My first blog entry ever. For so long, I have thought that I truly was fat & happy. I am a genuinely happy girl. Happy & joyful in Christ. However, after coming to the realization that I am digging my way to an early grave, I have joined my husband on the wonderful Atkins diet.....again. I am a married 29 y/o woman and mother of Olivia Grace who was born on July 5, 2007. My husband is Aaron, and how he could love this big 'ole body, I just don't understand. ...
I know you are not supposed to be weighing yourself every day when you are trying to lose weight. That it could fluctuate from day today but turn out for the positive (technically negative ) at the end of the week... but I just couldn't help myself. I got on the scale. I am down almost 5 lbs already. And it is going to be day 4. I have been eating amazing salads (with turkey bacon, cheese, eggs, blue cheese dressing) delish chicken breasts, turkey lunch meat, ...
This Atkin's diet is very strange. Strange to me because for the last 4 years I have gone from total vegetarian, to including chicken/turkey in my diet. For almost 3 years I ate only seafood (ok, not a vegetarian technically that was a pescitarian) and then about a year ago I began including chicken and turkey products back into my regular diet. Now, the myth that all vegetarians or vegans are thin is just that. A myth. I was never thin to begin with when I stopped eating meat completely in 2004, ...
6/1/2008 - 343.5 pounds. I am currently so sleepy that I looked in the mirror and feel like a raccoon. I don't know why I'm still so stubbornly awake, but whatever. I bought what I thought I needed for the week, and somehow my bank account is at 300 bucks, and that has me a little stressed because it has to last for two weeks. At least the bills are paid. I have been feeling crappy lately. Today was relaxing because I didn't think of all the things that make me stressed. ...
I can't count how many times I have tried to restart, with little or no success. Not that this WOL hasn't worked, I've just not been able to stick to it. Well, not this time! I started last Tuesday at my original weight of 170 lbs. Disgusting, but hey, have to start somewhere. At least I wasn't back into my biggest clothes, and I did gain the last 20 lbs VERY quickly, so it was probably just rentension. So waking up this morning, Sunday, aka weigh in day, I stand at 164 ...
