Good morning everyone. Rainy day here in New England. I'm off to a physical therapy appt & then may go to work depending on how the appt goes. Other than that food is planned for the day & my H20 bottles are all filled up.

Have a great day & be good to yourself!

Good morning all,
well I like mondays everyone is off to work/school and i get the house to myself. I have been bouncing between 220-221 since 3/10/2009 it is begining to tick me off why it only moves +/-.4 .8 everyday. I walk a mile a day eat only allowed foods and drink so much water that i have noticed every flaw in my bathroom. I dont know what to do to knudge it. walk more eat more? my fit day has me at f-69/c-3/p-26 today. 1372 calories. i bought the downloaded one so its on my computer screen all the time like the weight Gods are watching me. Does anyone have any tricks on moving this along its getting so hard to stick with it. I am starting to convince myself that i dont look so bad fat when i know i look terrible. Yes some inches are off but not very much mostly my ribcage area down 2" waist 1 1/2 hips pretty much the same bicep down 1" but i have walked 1 mile every day and was a couch potatoe before the treadmill. I have been on atkins since 3/3/09 I know i made mistakes in the begining (the atkins bars and shakes)
but dang that was a couple weeks ago... Please someone tell me what more i can do? I cant eat eggs,fish,or fowl basically a beef,pork,cheddar cheese and veggie person. I really need help. I want to change my life.

I love that this thing is still going so strong. You guys are amazing and I know if you work hard and stay focused on building a great life with food and low carbing I KNOW IT WILL HAPPEN.
Make time to prepare
Make time to plan
Keep your promises and IT WILL HAPPEN!!!!!

[steady as she goes]

quick check-in! hello! still here.

ratucker, have you been measuring?

[tfek70]

Ruthanne, this one's too easy. Most people hit a plateau between weeks 3 and 5. You're there, it'll pass be patient. Secondly, inches lost are much better than pounds lost. The scale won't tell you you're skinny, people will. I can't look at you and see pounds lost, but I can see inches.

Once again, no pounds lost for me, but I'm still melting. I worked out hard over the weekend, ending with shoulders and abs. This morning our command PT worked out shoulders and abs again. I felt like I was going to die. I thought I was over the flu, but I was at Walmart at 2 AM buying cough suppressant so I could get to sleep. I think I managed about 2 hours of sleep last night. I'm dragging butt today.

Have a great day all!

Good morning. I am home at last from my trip last week. It was a challenge to eat low carb while traveling but I think I did a pretty good job. Total weight loss from 2 weeks of induction was 18lbs. on to the next step.
