Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
Tuesday? Already? CARb Accountability Roundup
Okay folks, I'm posting this one the night before, because I just know I'm not goin to be up early enough to do it in the morning.
Here's my plan:
B: eggs hollandaise with spinach and lox and LOTS of coffee.
S: little triangles of foil-wrapped cheese, and more coffee (first day of the work week)
L: turkey pastrami and shoulder roast on high-protein bread -- maybe our special rolls?
S: protein bar, in the car; possibly more cheese while at a boring afternoon meeting
D: beef stew with lots of healthy vegetables
Thank you all for posting what you eat, and all the great ideas!!!
My exercise last weekend was working in the new veggie garden I just made. Tried to lift a rain-soggy recycling can of garden waste into one of the beds and fell over, managing to smash a whole row of baby lettuce plants (don't tell anyone). We'll see if they bounce back the way that I did when I realized I was waist-deep in pigeon guano!

Had a perfect low-carb day yesterday until I got home last night....The dreaded Girl Scout cookies! I had one or two or more. Scale stayed the same this morning...Whew! I am starting over today.
B: 2 fried eggs; later 2 cups decaf coffee (plain) and unsweetened iced tea
S: 2 oz cheese
L: 3 oz of chicken cheesecake (something I had never had but good) small salad with wine/cheese dressing
S: 2 oz cheese
D: Grilled chicken stir fry
S: protein hot chocolate (in place of GS cookies)
Lots of water.
The Chicken Cheesecake was cream cheese, parm cheese, chicken, red/green peppers, onion, and roasted garlic. I would prefer they had cut back on the roasted garlic a little, it came through very strong.

Tuesday - was not my best low carb day.
But there is always another day... The carb was bit high... but most - if not all were low gycemic.. so I did not do too much damage.
