So, today is day two.
Surprisingly, I am OK, and I don't feel the need to cheat. I know two days is not a lot, but when I tried Atkins before, it was a pain in the butt to make it through the first couple of hours because I knew that I could NOT have any chocolate. That is my downfall...
yumny chocolate. I am doing great though. I have done the 14 day induction before, lost 10 pounds, but I did not stick with it as it was only because I was doing it to win a bet. This time, I am really
committed. Since the first of the year I have become more active, there were some downs here and there, but I have been way better about it than I have ever been before. I have eliminated all excuses to NOT exercise by getting a stationary bike and I now have a
Wii-Fit which is AWESOME. My goal is to lose 20 pounds. If I can lose more, that is great, but 20 pounds is great for me. I so miss being able to fit into my clothes. I tried doing the Weight Watchers plan, but time and time again, my body has proven to me that I just can't over do it with lots of
carbs. This go round, my goal is to find out my
carb threshold. I know that I will eventually introduce more
carbs back into my diet, but for now, I want to give this all I have. Since I love to cook, I am being VERY creative with low-
carb recipes. I am actually having fun with it and not over
thinking the fact that I can't have sweets. Last night had a dream that I had a plate of junk and I was
soooo upset. I am glad it was a dream because one bite of the wrong thing can throw off my
ketosis. Any of you guys ever tried Atkins? Or any other dietary change? How are you doing?
