Wow, I'm so hyped. Two weeks down and 10 pounds lost. I thought about going into OWL but I was so satisfied with what I ate on induction that I'll just play around with between 20 and 25 carbs. I'm actually a bit scared to add more carbs, afraid it will stop my weight loss altogether or actually cause me to crave more things.

I think I am becoming addicted to bacon, though. Yummy to just eat, and delicious in a salad.

I have to confess that I played around on another...

My weight hasnt changed in the last week BUT I have been exercising like a maniac so I just know that I am building muscle which is why I am not showing any difference on the scale. I have been on plan and drinking plenty of water soooooooo I figure: Steady wins the race! To health that is. My clothes are filling loser and I dont have that bloated feeling at all my energy is up and so I figure the weight will catch up (or down ) when its ready.

I am so excited for dinner tonite...

I got a lot of house cleaning done, spent time with hubby and took a yoga class.....stayed really close to plan but indulged in a cookie (bad girl) but went right back to plan.

Did my hike today and my walking partner told me she is going out of town next week on business so I have to make it my business to motivate myself...

I am new to this board. Today is my first low carb day. I have exactly 20 days until my wedding and I just want to lose weight. My goal number would be 19 pounds but I am not holding my breathe. I would be very happy with 9 pounds.

Today I am just trying to focus on no carbs. It is so hard for me right now. I want something sweet and totally over-filling. Cheeseburgers are my weakness and the bun is the best part. But looking great in my wedding dress is a big deal to...

Today is Day 12 of my new way of eating. I started with Atkins on August 5th. It's not the first time I've done Atkins, but it seems different than many years ago. I had gastric bypass on September 18, 2006, and never reached my goal. Why? Because of the Carb Monster!!!

When I gained 15 pounds...
