Hi, looking for friends
I'm down 19 lbs, since I started really working at it 38 days ago. I'm doing a modified atkins kind of thing. I know real atkins doesn't usually work because all the weight comes back, but like I said, I'm really modifying. I'm watching carbs a lot right now, but if I want a potato, I have a potato. I just don't have potatoes EVERY night. And the big carbs I've cut out are the things I shouldn't have been eating all along, like giant bags of chips, plates of french fries, etc. And if i go over my carb limit because I'm eating veggies and fruit, I certainly don't care because those are the right kind of carbs to be eating. I've also given up regular tea (for now, that will never go away forever). I'm drinking yogi detox tea with a squeeze of lemon and a splash of cranberry juice in the morning. I HATE water and was a crystal light addict, but I've given that one up as well. Still hate water, but i'm putting mint leaves in it which helps. I'm also trying to get my 10,000 steps in, though this week was a bust - but that's okay because every day is a new chance to start over! I'd like to lose another 60-80 lbs. I think I can do it this time!
