I realized a couple of days ago, almost EVERY time I cook something, the mess of pot and pans I have shoved into the cabinet come crashing out on the floor.

This is like, 98% of the time.

So what would you expect from this?

a.) Do you think that would convince me to ogranize something? Stack pans? Get some kind of plastic organizational aids?

Or b.) do you think I'd probably just laugh at myself, grab what I want, and shove the rest back in...

These ups and downs really get to me.... I've been tired, and I was attributing it to the low carb. I've been very down, looking in the mirror and looking at underwear pictures of myself - so FAR to go. This week I've been MAXING the Atkins Indulgence Snickers-like bars (from SAMs club no less)....bad, but it was either that or step into the abyss. Its a bad outlook, but I felt like at least they have a laxative effect. Started getting discouraged cuz the scales showed 6 pound GAIN, putting me at...

We just said no where and went on about our business, even though the evidence was in the car. My daughter had a small frostie, so by the time dinner was done and...

I am at a crossroads. I am looking into bariatric surgery, have an appointment for my first consultation and started doing a low carb also. A lot of the patients were doing low carb after the surgery, so I was thinking, what if I can get the results without surgery? looking at pictures of those who've done low carb and those who had surgery, the low carbers didn't look so....flabby? I may be fat, but I am kinda vain - i dont want to lose anymore than necessary!! I like my hair, I like my shape -...
