Thread: Made it to the 14th day

Today is my 14th day. I do admit I don't have the strong sugar cravings that I had before I started Atkins. After dinner I use to have ice cream as a treat (reward) after a hard day's work. And then I'd eat some fruit after that. I love fresh pinapple. But it got so that almost after dinner (which probably had sugar in it too because I was using equal) I would want my ice cream and then after that I wanted fruit. I don't have that STRONG craving anymore. Sometimes there's a slight craving.
I am eating clean. Am learning a lot from everyone. Will continue to eat clean.
My daughter (23)says she's never seen so much real food in the refrigerator.
Our frig is usually filled w/ strofoam containers.


Take your time and do it right,baby.

Goldie, you're doing great!

Isn't it wonderful to have control?

(BTW, fresh pineapple is relatively low in carbs; you might want to save it for maintenance, but it's something to look forward to. )

And I love your sig line!! You have such a great attitude!!

Goldie,

Congrats on making it to day 14. Some habits just start to go away after 14 days of not doing them. It makes you understand why LC generally have an induction period to get us to give up our bad habits.
