CARB FREE WEEK!!!
OKAY CHICAS!!! I HAVE TO GET MORE ACCOUNTABLE - SO HERE IT GOES!!!
I am going to make a concerted effort to remove carbs from my diet this week! I have been really lax regarding carbs and (repeat after me) THEY ARE EVIL!!!!
Carbs beget Carbs......
SO!! Who is going to join me?? Basically I am going to avoid ANYTHING white - no potato, bread, pasta (like I eat that anyway!) and rice (huh?). Mostly it is the potato and bread thing for me!!
I figure if I can get them back out of my diet I can get these last 20 lbs off for good!!!
Get off me about my Starbucks though - I will try to do the skim milk thing - although it tastes different, I'll try to only go once a day too!
So basically it is going to be protein, some veg and lots and lots of water!!! AND yes Ms Denise - my vitamins & meds.
So ..... if I am grumpy this week - ya'll will know why!!!

Not sure I qualify as a chica, but I'm in... as long as you count refried beans as a protein/fiber and not a carb.
Probably wont be near as hard for me as you, but I'll be thinking of you when I scramble my egg.
Look at all you've done - you can do this! If the carbs start coming after you, log on quick and dodge them that way.

I'm in..... I have been walking 2 miles a day, so that I can get the 35 pounds off before June 18th. Target date for surgery.... I'm so scared I won't make it but I will join your Carb fight for a week. I jounal everything so I will write into you every evening if you want and we can let each other know how our day was. Thanks for putting this out there and we can reach our goals!! Thanks - Robin

John buddy - you can be mi Amigo!! LOL And beans are good stuff so I don't consider them carbs (evil pieces of . &^%$) I'm glad to see your posts!!! See, this didn't kill ya!!! How's the family hanging in there?
Robin - you bet - hold me accountable!! Sometimes this far out I get a little complacent and I have always admitted to being non-compliant!!

Robin - I know that there are some that weigh between appointments - I think there is a set of scales both upstairs in the clinic and downstairs in the hospital. Just ask someone and I don't think they have an issue with weighing. I meant to do it Saturday when I visited with Rita after our walk but I had a work thing I needed to take care of so scooted out quickly.
