hi everyone! sounds like things are going great for many! and that
darn scale can get frustrating, but have no doubt that things are
going well for you…remember how good you feel on this way of
eating, remember the looseness of your clothing..remember positive
thoughts even when the numbers dont show it…i am very proud of
everyone for the jobs well done [not sure if that means anything or
not] i am just so happy not to be alone in this struggle with
changing our lives..sometimes the changes can be tough but the
rewards are worth it! huggles to all!
i have been on induction since..hmmmm july sometime or june..not
quite sure anymore..i was 254 when i started and am about 215 now..i
would love to have lost more but i am truly happy with the weight
loss so far..it has come to a stall the past 6 or 8 weeks..though i
was on vacation for the last 2 weeks..and i did go back to some of my
old ways..but..and this is a big BUT…i did not beat myself up for
it and in doing that..i knew i could get back on track again..i did
not overeat the carbs at every meal..but i sure did on some..when i
got home on friday i was up 7 pounds..and instead of putting myself
down for it..i got right back on track..and today i am back to 215
again..i am so happy to know a way of eating that DOES
work….unfortunately the weekend was rough as i went through some
minor withdrawal symptoms..but thankfully i was prepared for them..
believe it or not..i am truly a negative person, seeing the cup half
empty instead of half full…since being on atkins, not only has my
outside changed, my insides have as well, i am able to see things in
perspective and more positive [yes i fall back to negative still as
well…] but overall my thoughts have improved and i am almost able
to say..i like who i see now..but i know that will come with
work..just like everything else
okay have rambled on and on….just want to wish everyone positive
thoughts ….we can do it! we can!….
huggles and happy new eating

Weighs more this week

Sunday, April 25th, 2004

Hi Sharon…Getting on the scale too often can defeat your new thinking process.
I weigh sometimes 2 or 3 pounds more all the time, due to my retaining water. I
use my ring as an indicator…when it is too tight, I know the scales will scare
me. So I don’t even give them the opportunity..I ignore them. Basically, like
most people will tell you, your clothes will tell the truth. Are they getting
looser?. Can you see your toes now? lol. Can you walk without breathing hard??
Those are the true indicators, not the silly scale. It is a crutch, and will
bring you down in defeat if you rely on it. We all want it to tell us wonderful
things, but there just are too many other facets of our bodies we are dealing
with. Good Luck, hang in there, and soon you will be able to smile at that
scale as you walk on by. Barbara

this weeks weigh in

Sunday, April 25th, 2004

Ok guys! I weigh 2 lbs more than last week! I have been really trying to
stay on track. Haven’t been cheating! The only thing I can figure out is maybe
I am not eating enough this weekend! We have been really busy with soccer,
cross country and the county fair! I ate mostly meat this weekend because it
was easy to grab a piece of meat and run out the door! Do you think that could
be it? I know I didn’t get any veggies in Sat at all!! Is the weight gain
mean I am in starvation mode??? Thanks, Sharon

Trip to America…What to buy?

Saturday, April 24th, 2004

Hi…I’m coming to the U.S.A (Calif) next week for one month, and wondered
what products I should bring back? Nothing perishable, of course (12 hour
flight), but things like oat flour, etc. Could someone take a minute and tell
me some products that I’m not aware of here in Europe? Thanks for your help.

shopping today

Saturday, April 24th, 2004

I went to old navy today! My clothes were just falling off of me and looked
horrible. I thought I would buy some jean shorts! ( I live in Texas and wear
shorts yeararound). They didn’t have any shorts. I decided to get some
jeans! I bought 2 pair of SIZE 10 jeans!! I was in shock! I have been wearing
shorts that were 14 and 16. I am so excited. Sharon
