Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss

Topic: Wednesday Already? CARb Accountability Roundup!
Yesterday was a pretty good low-carb day, because I packed well ahead. After feeding my fears, and feeding my joys, and feeding my anxiety and my relaxation over the weekend, it is good to be back on track (except that now my breath smells and tastes, once again, like ketosis -- blech)
Today's plan:
B: protein shake -- Labrada made with low-sugar soy milk
Commute: Coffee with full cream
S: nuts
L: pickled herring with sour cream
S: edam cheese
D: beef stew (no potatoes)
Lately I've been drinking a lot of crystal light ... we'll see how all that sweetener and all those chemicals pan out in my system!
Whatcha eatin' today?

So far..so good for today. Last night I had a run in with the snack monster. Gotta plan a little better for this evening.
Commute: Coffee w/ splenda and 1/2 & 1/2
B: 2 scrambled eggs w/ cheese
L: Chef Salad & Ranch Dressing
s: Celery w/ peanut butter
work break: Coffee w/ splenda and 1/2 & 1/2 (gingerbread coffee from Trader Joes - WOW)
s2: Dill Pickle & Turkey Pepperoni
D: Roast Beef w/ Steamed Broccoli & Cauliflower
lns: Cherry Coke Zero (during NCIS)
lns2: SF pudding (depends on what time I go to bed)
So far today I've had a 32 oz. decaf tea. A 32 oz. White Grape Crystal light and now I'm working on a 32 oz. Cran-Lemonade. Plus 2 (gigantic) cups of coffee. So with all the liquids I've gotten some major exercise simply running to the ladies room.

Snack.........??? not sure yet
Coffee, tea, and water throughout the day. As you can see, I have dropped the honey/cinnamon treatment. Was not working and I think creating a craving. Also have done more walking today.

Good morning, good afternoon, and good evening (depending on where you are):
I'm constantly amazed by the variety of good low-carb, healthy-protein meals people eat, aren't you? Today's plan:
B: coffee with half and half, and eggs with hollandaise and asparagus (my "usual")
S: non-fat greek yogurt with splenda (I would prefer full fat, but it has more carbs, sheesh)
L: pickled herring in cream sauce
S: celery and peanut butter
S: edam cheese
D: turkey "bolognaise" sauce (no pasta for me) and green salad
I'm expecting the net carbs to be around 30, but we'll see
