Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
Monday on Sunday CARb Accountability Roundup
Last week was a bear (hence fewer CARb posts), but I'm starting this one o ut right, for sure -- cooking ahead, preparing in advance ... gonna be ready!!!
In any event, I'm setting up this thread for MONDAY's carb accountability -- of course, if you wanna start posting on Sunday, the more the merrier!!!
Have I mentioned lately that I love this group?

Thanks Lisa...
I did quite nicely over the weekend. I only had a bite of cake .. late on Saturday... (a real bite) but it was a polish style poppy seed cake and I absolutely had to have a bite. Did not go for the polish candies. After my BF ate some - I kissed him to get the taste... yummy...
beside that - I did great. Both days less than 60 gr carbs and less than 40 net carbs.
I almost lost it on Sunday when I started digging into my Hershey kisses stash... so I got rid of the rest of them (garbage disposal). can't have them.
Today starting good. Had some protein coffee, and some other low carb food...
plan is:
protein coffee
bigos + veggies+ some meat ( I ate to early - pain, pain, pain..ulcer??? - most likely is forming.)
protein coffee...
Flax muffin + PB (thanks for the recipe - love it)
meat + veggies
cabbage + meats (if my pouch can tolerate foods again)
yogurt + flax + proteins... or protein ice cream.

Arghhhhhhhhhh ....
Poor planning did me in today. Western Bagel donated bagels (of course) to our school, and I ate TWO of those buggers, just for the joy of gnawing. Grrrrr . . .
Started out well, though!
B: two jumbo eggs, poached
S: inadequate quantity of coffee with cream (maybe this and the lack of hollandaise are to blame ...)
L: sugarfree berry smoothie made with greek yogurt
S: bagel with cream cheese (no kidding, I really did this)
S: bagel, this time no cream cheese (can you believe it?)
S: (noticing a pattern here?) banana
S: (obviously a problem today) sugarfree peanut butter cookies
D: chicken, chard, carrots, and a green bean. One.
So clearly I did not think ahead, what would happen if I was confronted by the availability of bagels. Also, I have not been having enough fat or protein. So, I'm going to have to deal with both of those issues ...
But I guess that's what CARb accountability is, folks!
