Tue Roll Call

[Outback Jess]

Good morning STACers...it's Tues. Another day to build lifestyle, and habits and routines that carry you right into ketosis. Having been out of ketosis, let me tell you the benefits of being in...When you are in ketosis, there is a buzz of energy unlike anything I'd experienced before...it's a daily buzz, and you end up cleaning out closets, cleaning out garages, and often time painting and fixing up the place. Some do mountains of yardwork! Then there is food, you find yourself not eating as much, not as hungry, everyonce in a while you find you might actually miss a meal and of course, that's unthinkable.... Then cravings, usually cravings begin to quiet down, they don't hamper your thoughtlife...

Ketosis is that little hidden special extra that really makes Atkins stand out! It makes you feel great...I'm in, but just barely...I've worked hard to get back in. I've not been gaining any weight, but I've missed that silence of foods! Ketosis is to be worked for, and established and cherished!!!

Good Morning STACer's,

Life is good. Spent the evening experimenting in the kitchen. I have all kinds of good goodies with me today. Egg & Pepper Fritta, Meatloaf (with mushrooms, peppers, parmesan cheese), Jicama (of course), I love to cook!
I hope everybody is ready for the veggie challenge....

Hear, hear! Even with the amount and variety of food you were able to eat, I was still hungry. And craving more. And sickly from the processed junk... Ack!

Anywho, Good Morning, all! Checking in quickly and need to get busy. I need to spend time figuring out my meals for next week, including for the veggie challenge...What the heck is an endive?! LOL! Plus yardwork and job searching. Going to be a busy day.

Have a great one, all!

Oh, yeah. One particular slice of bread was 1 point. Well, when you had roughly 30 points to play with, you could chow down quite a bit of bread! And rice and pastas... Poison! POISON!! LOL! (Applying the little mindgames from the Cake and Ant thread... heh heh!)

Good Morning Everyone, checking in!!!! Jess you are so right about Ketosis, i love it, i feel like im in control. Well i have seem to take an obsession with the scale and it is pissing me off, im not losing any weight, not sure if its all the excercise i have been doing and im going to have a whoosie come through or what, but it has been 3wks of excercising and the only thing i have lost is a few inches, which im happy for but come on i want some pounds to come off, i go to the doctor for a physical in May and i want him to see i have lost a few pounds, he is not going to measure me. Ok im done whining, i need to put the scale away i guess. Well anyway let me go and get my day going, i hope you all have a blessed day!!!!

Good morning all I'm here. Home with a sick boy again today. I'm going to make another batch of sausage. You'll think I'm crazy, but I'm going to look for my little hand crank meat grinder (which I used to use at Christmas time to grind cranberries and oranges together for a relish) and measure it for a sausage attachment. Then I'll be able to make link sausage too! Scooter has created a sausage monster!!!
