Hi livelaugh, here's the link to my scale. I love it!
Taylor 5596G Fat Water Muscle Bone Scale - Low Carb
The rest of that site has some good articles too.
A slug is what you get when you don't exercise as many days as you pledged to when you signed up for the challenge. At the end you can get a slug free award (that little round thing in my sig) if you don't get any. Sick days don't count as slugs though.
Here is the rules thread:

Also, Elsie put in the last thread that we should all set a goal for ourselves for the week and a bunch of us decided to make it drinking 10 cups of water a day. You should do it too! Congrats on the 4 pounds and good luck at Curves!

I was gonna buy it ... but its out of stock right now how upsetting... but I am going to get it... it sounds great

NO not a water challenge but a self challenge for the week. We started discussing at the end of the last thread. You pick a goal you would like for yourself to reach this week. Most of just happened to pick water. Bill picked getting the bikes fixed up.

Thanks Monie and Vanessa...I was feeling very unloved and unsupported.

Monie...6.75 inches?? You go girl..that is so KEWL! Are you deep frying those onion rings? Can you throw in some beans and pickles and let me know what it tastes like?? LOL!

Hey Joe...seeing you around the boards. Keep up the supporting of others.

Vanessa...I am not a big yogurt fan but will pick it up to try. My favorite thing on rung two...in case you missed it. Is ricotta cheese with some cream and a little splenda in it. I was eating it twice a day before I ran out last night. I had never tried it before.


Cori...drink, girl, drink!

OMG...ROFL....DS...12 next week...is a veggie hater. PICKY eater. Just ate two slices of cauliflower pizza! rated it a 10! Had to tell him..after. You should have seen his face...LOLOL!!!

[studyinscarlet]

I am going to have to try that cauliflower pizza. Is it one of Linda's recipes? Where can I find it?

[IrishMom82]

Hey everyone, made a tasty quiche today! Yum. I also made Matchstick Jicama Fries. Interesting, they were good with a little sugar-free ketchup. Jicama is an interesting veggie. It's not bad but it's not good either, haha!

Workouts are going well. My DS was a real doll today. She's always in a better mood when I actually wake up in the morning and play with her. At work for the rest of the evening. Talk to you all later!

[Elsie150]

Vanessa...I just posted it in my never ending induction recipe thread in the induction forum....I think it is on page 4.

[studyinscarlet]

Cool thanks Elsie. Also, even if you are not a big yogurt fan you should try Fage. Greek yogurt is much creamier and thicker. I just had some and I am in heaven right now. I agree with you about jicama, IrishMom. Its "interesting," LOL. The "jicama apples" on Linda's site are pretty good though.

Hello all. was wanting to join in the buddy system. I have been doing Atkins for over a month now. Only problem is Im doing my atkins plan and no one elses. I have PCOS and really need to be on this diet. I was doing so good during induction and after I felt the best I have felt in about 5 years. THen one celebration after another and I have fallen of the wagon I have gained about 3 pounds back which isnt awful, but can't beleive how awful my body feels with all the sugar back. The other problem is I cant stand the sight of eggs now. Any suggestions on how to get back on track. I know I just need to do it, in my mind the weight loss is a bonus but I felt amazing on the diet. Any help is appreciated
