Hello all, sorry about this but I need a grumble!
I am doing Atkins for 2 reasons, to break my dependence on 'comfort carbs', and to get down to a size 8/10. I know my goal is very slim and I might not get there, and won't push it if my body really seems unhappy about going to such a low BMI.
Atkins (with an eye on the calories) seems to be going well, I've lost a few pounds and about 1.5-2ins off each of bust, waist and hips. But I'm still a bit grumpy because my bottom is still a bit disproportionate and has a way to go before I can wear the jeans I want!
I also feel a bit like I'm learning how to live without carbs, but I'm still thinking about them in the wrong way... I'm currently in the late stages of recruitment for a fab new job, but if I'm totally honest, when I visualise myself celebrating getting it, I picture a burger & chips, and some sweets too! Does this mean I haven't learned anything at all?
Would love to hear from anyone who has a view on this...
So sorry for the rant though, I know I am lucky to be where I am already, just nice to have a good grumble then get on with my (low carb) day!
