Angry Those Holiday Parties!!!

How are you getting through them?

Are you dying (salivating) or crusing through?

Try working at a car dealership, with mostly men, ALL WEEK we "celebrate", and of course the only way to celebrate is with some food....Ugh! There are tons and tons of mac salad, and breads and dips and ugh...Thankfully someone brought in a BIG salad and cheese and pepperoni! :great:

I have to say that this is the FIRST offical Christmas on 100% atkins (induction mind you) and is it tough...oh yes it is!!:(

Will I survive without plunging to the 8 desserts that are here. I will make it through the breads and dips and all of the junk carbs. Because I want to lose weight more than I want some dumb carb infested dessert.

Oh by the way...my pants are awfully baggy today!! My co-worker said, you might need a smaller size friend and you haven't even been doing this for 2 weeks. That is all that I needed to hear to get me through these days of not so "momentary afflications" (dr.atkins term....lol)

Hang in there everyone and Happy Low Carb Holidays!!!

Maybe this will help some.

I can tell you that, almost nine years into this, it really is no challenge at all any more. My workplace is a revolving carbohydrate festival, especially at this time of year. I'm happy to see some cheese and vegies every now and then. For the rest of it, well, I consider it their problem. 'Doesn't have to be mine.

Man Maggie you are a true inspiration to anyone and everyone that might read this, might think about eatting the fudge hearburn laddened brownie, your "lead" is what we all need to hear and see that if others can get through this time of the year...you can get through everything!!!!!!

You are beyond focused...that in it self is "success"

kudos to you friend!!
