Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
Recent Posts
This was not an "exemplary" low-carb day for me, because I got into the CHEESE CRACKERS this afternoon. Let's not talk about why I managed to purchase (and take to work) an entire large box of cheese crackers, shall we?
However, I would like to point out that I ate plenty of protein today, which sort of limited the curse of the crackers. And I got the protein in early, while I was still at home and in control -- bonus for me!
B: 3 poached eggs, coffee with half and half
S: didn't have time, probably why I got tempted by crackers later on
L: noodle-free lasagna, now THAT was a good idea
S: the afore-mentioned cheese crackers, grrrr
D: fish with cheese/garlic sauce, broccoli, carrots, half a roll with butter
Mostly it was a pretty good day, but curse you, boxed cheese crackers!!!

V'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
Look, four days (as you well know) is not much of a stall -- it's probably that you dropped a great deal of inflammational weight rather rapidly, which is wonderful -- But, it does spoil us some for when it's time to prepare for the longer haul of extended weight loss and even maintenance.
You are on the right path, and the fact that you are feeling better, I hope, is confirmation that you are doing as you should. We are glad to have you here, and I am honored that you took the time to post on our group's board.

Power Crunch Protein Bars.
Most of them have net 9 gr of carbs per bar, 5 gr sugar and 13-15 gr of proteins. 200 calories.
It is a great substitution when I want a candy bar.. .

Doing well... so far so good. Writting things down really make a difference how I see food and really how much I have.
So far:
coffee + almond milk (unsweet)
2 protein muffins (no flour almost no sugar - small amount of sugar from bananas)
yogurt with feta, olives and dry dill dip
protein bar
sirloin burger from Costco... (already cooked - Love them) + pickles..
tea and more tea...
already 900 calories and 80 gr proteins... but 2 more meals for me...
probably will go over calories... can't help that...
but will have protein shake (one meal)
and leftover salmon burgers + pickles (all low carbs - used parm cheese and flax meal as a filler, and egg whites)

I have chocolate. Used to get it daily... but not so much lately. Good chocolate for low carb is the 85% or the 90% dark chocolate... by Lindt. I will have a square or 2.. (2 squares only 2.5 net carbs) and break it into small pieces and let each piece disolve in my mouth. Usually 1 square will satify my cravings and not make me break my "low carb" day.

and go have my chocolate, junk etc. but I am determined as I must say I feel 100% better doing low carb!!
So I thought that if I took the time to post, put it in writing so not to blow it, I would feel better! (LOL no yet)
Great day to you all! I don't post much, but do love this board and the information I read!
