I lost track for a while through a series of sicknesses injuries and plenty of other excuses I can come up with.... Basically, lack of faith once I platued.

But, I am still in it. I finally switch to the atkins diet after I talked about it for 3 weeks. I have done this one before and it worked.

 

I have only been doing it for 2 days, and althoug I feel pretty much like crap as far as I think my blood sugar is way low cuz Im getting dizzy and of course I have a cold.

But lots of airborn and cold medicine and I should kick it soon. I am still workin out like crazy...I made myself some workout cds and made myself a routine and I am not alloud to stop till the 50 min cd is over.

 

The biggest thing I hate about the no carb thing is theres not a lot of snacking options, like to take to work, on the low fat I had my 100 calorie packs and such, but i think its good to shake things up and trick the metabolism every now and then so the plan is to do the no carb thing for this week and next week, the go back to low fat. Unless of course I lose 27 pounds in 2 weeks :) Then Im done!!

 

A few accomplisments.

I have stopped drinking pop at all, including diet since aparantly apartame isnt so good for you. So I'm drinking tea mixed with crystal light which makes for a pretty good beverage. And, Tea is good for you. And according to oprah, makes you lose weight. Althought I don't buy that so much.

 

I have cut down on the smoking and am on the road to quitting. The goal is to be down to 5 ciggerettes a day...then 4... then 3... then 2... then NONE

OF COURSE... Quitting smoking will cause me to gain 10 pounds probably.. More if I replace the smokes with food BUT im not going to do that. And I figure 10 pounds vs 15 years added to my life... Ill take the ten pounds. I'll just be very crabby doing it!

 

So thats my story, Sorry I was gone for so long...But I am still in this!!!
