Hey Wannabe. Do u usually eat that amount? I only ask because I think I am eating too much. Any advice? Xx

 

[Wannabe Weeney]

No Rachie, I usually eat way more than that-lol. Im a three meals a day girl and snacks in between and have good weekly loses, I dont know whats up with me today, just an off day I suppose. No doubt i'll make up for it tomorrow! x

 

[RachieB]

Thais for replying. I gained on my first wk so I am trying not to panic and throw the baby out with the bath water. I have set myself a goal of 3 meals and 2 snacks a day. Just want to lose this weight and feel better about myself. Have u being doing this for long? Xx

I started Atkins seriously mid January 2011 and love the food you can have so this diet really suits me. I did Cambridge in 2009 lost 3 three stone but is gradually creeping back on, the diet taught me nothing about food and I found maintenance really tough going. Lettuce and more lettuce is no fun when I 'live to eat' not 'eat to live'. Im a girl who just loves her food ANY kind of food!

I did some diet research and Atkins/low carbing sounded like my sort of plan, eating the foods I enjoy and STILL
lose weight sounded like a no brainer, so here i am giving it a whirl on week six and loving it. I dont feel deprived in any way and can see myself doing this long term.

How you finding Atkins? x

Morning lovelies,

Yesterday:

B: None
L: Whole roast chicken from tesco deli counter
D: None
W: moderate - couple more glasses needed I think
A: 3 glasses of red
E: An hour walk along the quayside - nothing strenuous

Coz I skipped breakfast I was really hungry when I got to tesco so did the usual man thing and overcompensated. Ate the entire chicken in one sitting for lunch! Boy...was I and I still am stuffed from it! Kind of good because I didn't pick at anything else, but not sure about this bloated feeling... I like feeling spry from not overeating!

 

[rosebug]

Blimey, Michael!

Hey Quak, is the flax porridge allowed on induction? I am assuming the recipe is in the thread? How are you doing today?
