Low Carb Journey

ONE WEEK-Day Seven:  216 down to 200, in one week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Only 60 lbs. left.  I know the rest will not come off even 1/2 this fast but what a great motivation.  I love Atkins.

Day Five and Six:  I added the Low Carb Tortillas, only 3 Net Carbs.  I know on Atkins you should wait until the end of week 2, but needed something easy to fix.  They have obviously not effected my blood sugars because I am down 10 lbs. in 6 days. Official weigh-in tomorrow.  I can't wait to get under 200.  201.6 right now, only 61.6 to my goal of 140.  Yay!!!

Day Four: Loving Franks Hot Buffalo Sauce, 0 Carbs, and yummy.  I have been dipping Tyson Chicken Wings in it, then into Ranch.  0 Carbs in the chicken, only 2 Carbs for 2 Tbps. of Ranch, so very low carb.  Great day!

Day Three:  Done-had to go get some low carb foods tonight, in the frozen section, yuck!  But I will atleast have something to grab and go if needed.

Day Two:  Feeling great about the eating plan I have worked out for myself.  Almost got up and ate late last night. I have a problem with wanting to eat at midnight.  Took 2 sleeping pills to help from being awake at midnight, I woke up at 1 am wanting chips...didn't have any.  Felt very good this morning.

Day One:  This is about my 100th "Day One".  I am very motivated right now.  I feel like I am in the right place to start my weight loss journey.  I am choosing Atkins, I lost 80 lbs.  years ago and kept it off until 16 months ago, I decided to stop smoking after 18 years.  So I allowed my self to self medicate with food while I gave up the nicotine.  Now that I have one year smoke free, I am ready to lose the weight.  It has been very hard
