Here and at 231 again [of course] - but feel that's good way to start the weekend. Last friday I was at 233, gotta look at the positive.

Busy day at work, but love fridays at work - very quiet. No plans for tonight and not much planned for the weekend.

Hope everyone has a great day. ]]> Second Time Around Club barrnone http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/second-time-around-club/83074-stac-rollcall-friday-11-20-2009-a.html http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/second-time-around-club/83055-stac-roll-call-thursday-11-19-09-a.html Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:10:30 GMT Here and on plan, up about 4/10ths of a pound today (had to see those nasty 213s after all, lol). But its all good, I'm wearing my brand new 14/16 outfit and it really isn't tight at all. I think I had just gotten so used to my 18/20's being loose that I thought the new outfit was tighter than it is when I tried it on at the store.

I have a long day today, heading out to the office in a few, have a budget meeting that is going to run from 2-7 and then an annual business meeting from 7-9. Tack on an hour and a half drive EACH way, and the couple of hours I'll work before the first meeting and its going to be about a 14 hour day. Gotta get some food ready to take with me.

Have a great day all! ]]> Second Time Around Club Barb1965 http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/second-time-around-club/83055-stac-roll-call-thursday-11-19-09-a.html http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/second-time-around-club/83016-stac-rollcall-wednesday-11-18-2009-a.html Wed, 18 Nov 2009 12:52:39 GMT Back up a little, not sure what's going on - but rather used to my fluctuations. It's staying under 233 now, but getting a little frustrated. Really have to journal and pay attention - that's the goal!

More water! ]]> Second Time Around Club barrnone http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/second-time-around-club/83016-stac-rollcall-wednesday-11-18-2009-a.html http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/second-time-around-club/82983-stac-rollcall-tuesday-11-17-2009-a.html Tue, 17 Nov 2009 13:29:37 GMT Morning STACers - I don't know if there is a rule on who starts this thread...but thought I would 'go for it'. I get into work so early and like to get my posting done before I start work.

Here and on plan - really good day yesterday, food wise. Not sure that I had enough water, so plan for today - eat perfect [more veggie carbs] and lots of water...want to see that scale go down tomorrow.

I'm happy to say I'm down another 2 pounds this week:dancing1

Thanks for the recipe Barrnone, It sounds great, We have snow moving in tomorrow and I'll have to try it then as I'll have time for cooking

How you feeling this morning Barb?

I feel like I'm coming down with something. I've been so careful I'm kind of ticked I feel like I'm getting sick, I hope its not the flu. When I go out, I take my antibacterial wipes and wipe down shopping carts or anything else I'll be touching (movie seat last night), I use my antibacterial hand sanitizer before I leave my car and when I get back, I'll be really ticked if I end up with H1N1, I've never been so careful in all my life, lol. My daughter had a little cold like thing last week, I'm hoping that's all it is, as I didn't really take precautions with her and still shared my iced tea with her a couple of times.

I have a very busy day today, getting ready to head out in just a few minutes and probably won't be home for a good 12 hours. I'm going to have to rely on a bunless burger or McD's salad at some point in the day, I just have to make sure I grab something before I get too hungry or I might be in trouble.

Today would have been my sister's 39th birthday, I think I've shared that she died last year two days before Thanksgiving of a sudden brain aneurysm. Its a hard day and there will be more in the coming weeks, but I will not let this derail me. Instead I will use it to inspire me to break more of my bad habits so I can be around for my family and loved ones for many more years to come.

This is a new one for me.... and I hope I'm not coming down with something like so many others. But when I rolled out of bed today, all my muscles felt fatigued. My eating is spot on, maybe a bit low in calories at around 1200-1400, and I'm having trouble eating that much. And I'm drowning myself with 100-120 oz of water, and I'm in the veggie challenge. Hmmmmm, we'll see how the day goes.

I am back after a long "break" that included gaining about 12lbs. I still have a lot to lose and I figured this group would be the best place for me to link with others who have been there and done that. I have been on induction for about a week now and lost 6 lbs. I intend to stay on Induction until Thanksgiving before moving on to OWL 1.
The last time I was focused on Atkins, I lost 20+ lbs and I still really have no idea why I discontinued this WOE. I am much more aware of my thought processes now and I believe I have learned a lot for my past experiences on Atkins. (One lesson has been that OWL 1 is not a sugar rung and in fact there is not a sugar rung at all. ( :rottentom Just kidding -of course!) But I do not think I understood the Atkins lifestyle as well on other attempts. I am going to allow myself to make some mistakes and forgive myself this time around instead of declaring myself a total failure if I accidentally eat something I shouldn't like when I ate sugar bacon last time. Because, really, I have the rest of my life to eat this way so eventually I should be able to work out the snags and this WOE will feel completely normal.
Anyways, Thanks for reading my ramblings. I am glad to be here and look forward to going on this journey with you! :grouphug:

Funny how this is day 1 of my second time around. The good news is I only gained 3 pounds since I fell off the diet in June. The bad news ... I'm a carboholic. So is my hubby, but he doesn't have the weight issues. So there's candy, bread and all kinds of junk I shouldn't eat all around me. I know if I can make it thru the first week, I'll be OK ... It's from dinner to sleep that I fiend for sweets.
Fortunately, I drink plenty of water and exercise daily, so that's covered. I just need to remind myself " I'm full and I don't need more food- especially candy or sweets". :duh:

Although, truthfully I'm not sure if 145 is appropriate - but I'm giving it a go. I'm enjoying things right now and have stopped obsessing and tracking everything. I've learned through all of this that I get too "micro" so I'm going to working on living and balancing.

Anyways, just want to say - if your coming back - YOU CAN DO IT! ]]> Second Time Around Club Momma2threegirls http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.com/forums/second-time-around-club/82756-bit-cheer.html
