Juli,

You are addicted to carbs and have to get rid of the addiction, that means

not answering the cravings. I think Atkins suggests a supplement to help stop

them, L Glutamate (sp) The list can correct me if I am wrong, I use cheese to

help me on that front. The first week is bad but once you get past that you

start feeling awsome!!

Hugs,

Penny

Ok, ok... I'm stopping, I'm stopping!! )

Ok, ok.... heh... HEY!! don't throw stuff at me!! LOL

All I can say is make sure you have gobs of " legal " snacks on hand. I tend

to get the same way at around 9 or 10, so it's even worse!! But celery and

cream cheese or a couple sourdough WASA and cream cheese seem to be working

real well for me. Or a diet cream soda!! Yum!! Pepperoni slices, just a

few? Or a thick slice of cheese? Whatever works for you, just make sure

some is kicking around for this time of day.

Or make sure you're busy then. Laundry, a board game, answer your

e-mail... If you can get through that time, are you ok?

Welcome Juli!

I found that all cravings for the carbs stopped by the 4th day. I'm not sure

how

to help you get through those first 3 days, but it's worth it if you can!

Juli,

the first 2 weeks you stick with Meat, Seafood, Poultry, cheese and eggs, as

much as you want of these items,. I know it seems wrong but it is not, Then

add to your dinner and lunch a total of 3 cups of salad, or 2 cups of salad

and 2/3 cup of cooked vegies. also shop around for salad dressing with low

carbs. I hope this helps!!

i am somewhat of a vegetarian. not completely though, i eat fish and eggs.

if you make an omelet of egg beaters which is less than one carb per serving

and 30 calories per serving and you can have as big a serving as you want,

you can even add regular eggs. put some vegetarian soy ground beef or i

guess regular ground beef, in it and some cheese or 2% cheese which kraft

has 1 carb., put a little green pepper and other seasonings that you may

like like garlic, onion or onion flakes or powder, parsley, curry powder,

black pepper etc. spray the pan with pam. either make an omelet or scrambled

either tastes extremely good, very very low carbs. you can put it on a plate

of lettuce or other greens with salad dressing, balsalmic vinigar with

sprays of " i can't believe it's not butter spray " and you will have yourself

a large and wonderful meal, you can substitute the meat with anything you

like that's low in carbs. i have this almost every day because i love it and

it leaves me full and that's a statement! also i need some ice-cream

receipes. i would also like to drink soy powder protein drink as a

substitute for a meal. does anyone know a good brand and what do i do with

the heavy whipping cream in my refrigerator. ithandi

juli-

I have 140 emails to read so if someone already wrote this i apologize

for the repeat..

THis is what I would do about your evening 'pig outs'

I would eat a good size snack around 3:00 or 3:30. Eat a bunch of

chuncks of cheese, or pepperoni slices or find some low carb dip you

like and dip the pork rinds in them. If you keep yourself somewhat full

and satisfied I really dont think you'll get that urge to pig out. Try

this for a few days and try try to force yourself if needed not to give

intothe cravings cause after about 3 days or so.. you wont crave it

anymore! To me the KEY is not to EVER allow myself to get very hungry!

i keep myself satisfied all day.. i munch on free foods all day and then

at ddinner i'm not starving and i really dont care what i eat.. i eat to

live, not live to eat!!!!

Are pork rinds carbless? I haven't had them in years! I'm not even

sure if we have them in our store. I was really getting tired of

pretzels pretzels pretzels as my low-fat snack.

Florida was nice... Except they lost our luggage on the way down. I

KNEW it was going to happen cause our first connecting flight got

canceled and they put us on another airline.. luggage never seems to get

there when you're on 2 different airlines! We got in at 11am... but

didnt get our luggage till 3am!!!! so we spent the day in a bar eating

and drinking cause we didnt have anything to change into! But after

that it all turned out great. We had a lot of fun. Saturdday i drank

like 5 beers on the beach.... I LOVE DRINKING IN THE

SUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i got pretty hammered and I

dont normally drink much, so i'm sure that was a sight. Needless to say

I gained 4 lbs on the trip, but have since got back on the woe and LOST

THEM! We ate soo good down there... seafood everynight. I spent $200 on

food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I probably wouldnt of gained if I hadnt drank

the beer, the seafood wassnt bad and i really didnt eat pasta or

potatoes or to many bad things.

My girlfriends wedding is next weekend! (she's the one who took all of

us to Sanibal Island, FL, her gift to her bridesmaids... cool huh) - i'm

not going to have any alcohol til thanksgiving except for the wedding.

Thanksgiving is my goal for a 15 lb lost.... we'lll see if i can do it.

I really think i can do it.. it only took me 6 weeks to lose the first

14!

Anyway... vacation is over... reality sets in .... and I realize.. I

want another vacation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ha Ha...

[Guest guest]

Yes.. i believe porkrinds are a 'free food' - someone correct me if i;m

wrong.. i've loaned my book out to my neice. if they arent free - they

are very low!

[Guest guest]

Nat,

We have them in our grocery store in the chips aisle. They didn't have much

shelf space and were on the bottom shelf but they are there. I tried them

and dont' really like them but they are carb-less so if you like them, go for

it. I think I read here someone may have stalled on them though, may be an

individual thing

Hey Marci,

I'm Sheila and I love this list! Everyone here is great and very

supportive. The first 2 weeks you are to keep ur carb count 20 and under per

day. The legal foods are all meats, fish, poultry, and some dairy(no milk)

like sour cream, cottage cheese, cheese. You can have in moderation salad

with regular ranch, bleu cheese, just look for sugar and carb content. For

veggies theres green beans, spinach. Its very hard to remember all of it, so

if I leave out things someone here will help us out--hehe. We eat sugar free

jello, oh and u can have butter and heavy cream. Do u have the book? That

really helps, I still go back and look at things. I like roll-ups, thats a

lunch meat with cheese and mayo, or mustard, i like sour cream rolled up in a

lettuce leaf. I love bacon!! Marci theres alot more, but I cant think of more

just yet here--lol!! I'm glad your here and I hope to hear from you soon.

Take care!

Marci,

I think it is wonderful that you are trying out this WOL!! I have never felt

better in my life!!! Have you read the book yet. In the book there is a list

of the foods you can have on induction. It is pretty much meat, poultry,

fish. cheese and Eggs. 3 cups of salad (no white onions and no tomatoes on

induction) with dressing or 2 1/2 cups of salad and 2/3 cup of a cook vegie,

(no corn, carrots peas, or lima beans Also no potatoes or sweet potatoes).

Celery is acceptable!! it is 1.6 carbs a stick. Welcome to the list and if I

missed something maybe one of the other members will fill you in more!!
