Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
CARb Accountability - Hey, Wednesday is HUMP Day!
I've switched from unsweeted soymilk to unsweetened almond breeze. I've been a vegetarian/vegan for too much of my adult life to want to drink a glass of milk. Now 1/2 and 1/2 or cream, that's another story. Bring it right on. I allow myself a tsp or two of cream in my morning Earl Grey tea.

Time to post my food. I'm starting a 10 month class tonight called Awakening Joy so need to eat early and scaddadle out of here. I'm going to go hang out with all the happy Berkeley people and add more happiness and joy to my disposition.
here's my food but not in the order of meals
6 oz salmon filet
1 baby carrot
1/4 cup red bell pepper
2 slices cucumber
2 T tuna salad
1 fresh vietnamese spring roll w/rice paper wrapper
bacon
2 cherry tomatoes
1 T heavy cream
Calories - 831
Protein - 68
Carbs - 18
I hope I don't need a snack when I get home at 10pm.
I just wanna say that my baby turned 37 today. He's in Italy on a film shoot but I got to google chat with him this morning, just cause he knew I'd want to talk to him. I said, It's your dang birthday, so how come I feel older? Truth is that part of the reason I had this surgery is that I'm single with 1 son and don't want to ever be a burden to him. We do great things like hike the Great Wall, kayak, snorkle in Thailand, hike in Japan, swim in the Mediterranean on the Cote de Azur. I want that active life that I dreamed of for a long time and it's all coming true. So here's to feeling fabulous at 60 and who the heck cares about wrinkles! OK, so I do.

2 scrambled eggs
2 Atkins bars (6-7 grms cab)
1 marzipan bar (5.5 grms carb)
4 pork and stilton sausages
4 ozs cheese
1 bag crackers (20 grms carb)
Coffee and fruit teas.
Every day I am still amazed that I am off insulin and feeling so alive. After 20+ years I have a life again! Another 2 inches off my waist and I'll be wearing 36 inch trousers and have lost 20 inches off my waist - haven't worn a 36 since I was 20, in 1973....sigh.
