Guest guest Posted September 6, 1999 Report Share Posted September 6, 1999 Hi Sue! That is wonderful that you are getting motivated again. I had been stalled for a few weeks, so I decided to do the program that our Y started. You count carbs (but not as strictly...I usually eat around 50 g. which is still a LOT less than what I used to eat before starting Atkins), protein, calories (1200 for my weight) and fat. At first I thought this was going to be so hard, but it really hasn't been. I eat 6 mini meals a day now instead of 3 big meals and I drink at least 96 oz. of water if not more. I've lost 2 lbs. since starting this WOE last Wednesday. The reason that I have stayed on this list is because I plan to switch plans every couple of weeks so my body doesn't get used to just one way of eating, and hopefully that will keep me from stalling again.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 1999 Report Share Posted September 6, 1999 Hello to all and happy labor day! I haven't been cheating but I have been stalled, so I will take the challenge. Should we designate a certain day as weigh-in day? 170/143/125 4/9/99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 6, 1999 Report Share Posted September 6, 1999 Hi Sue Okay, I'm up for the challenge--I'm stalled at 177--started at 180 and lost 6 pounds and now am back up to 177--I'd really like to get down to 150 or 155. I always used to be around 125 to 130--but now I'm older and just starting thru menopause and I think I need to be realistic so anywhere from 150-160 would make me pretty happy right now.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 1999 Report Share Posted September 6, 1999 Hi Sue I made myself a quesadilla on a la tortilla tortilla with swiss cheese and ham with some avocado on the side and some sour cream. (14.4 carbs minus 9.6 fiber on my diet) Boy am I thirsty today. I just keep the water coming. I did forget to take my vits and potassium this morning so I'll do that at lunch. I think lunch will be a shrimp salad with some avocado on it and blue cheese dressing. The avocado has some carbs in it (.8 per tbsp) but it's so good for me and I just love it. And then some leftover salmon and salad for dinner. I've really got to get control of my sodium intake I think--it's pretty high. The nice thing is that with mastercook, I've been writing down everything I eat and drink (yes even the wine) and so I can look back and see EXactly why I haven't lost any weight. Ha, ha.... Good going on your day so far. Taco salad sounds yummy. Bevnselah@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 6, 1999 Report Share Posted September 6, 1999 Sue!! I am back and I am responding to you challenge cause I have cheated terribly this weekend!! I am at 162 today and I want to break 160 at least this month and maybe break 150 by the end of October!!! I also wanted to send this web site out again so that the new ppl can use it, it tells how to find the foods with the hidden carbs. It requires math, which as some of you know I don't do well, but the whole web site is worth the read. It is: <A HREF= " http://members.aol.com/drjavaago/index.html " >Dr. Javaago's Low-Carb Survival Guide</A> http://members.aol.com/drjavaago/index.html Hope everyone had a great weekend and lets get back to business!!!!

Guest guest Posted September 6, 1999 Report Share Posted September 6, 1999 Hi Penny Hey, I had a craving for pizza but the one pizza place near us wasn't open today because of Labor Day--I was saved today--but Pizza is my downfall. I did read somewhere that if you just eat the toppings--no crust--it can still work for you. Bev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 7, 1999 Report Share Posted September 7, 1999 Hi Penny I understand completely where you're coming from--I'm going to turn 50 next june (2000)--I feel old--really old sometimes--but it helps me get focussed on a goal of 140 (maybe) by June of 2000.
