I just *HAD* to pick the day after Halloween to start Induction!?? Well if that isn't will power I don't know what is. Go Me!!

Although, it's not been easy with all that chocolate staring me in the face.
I *almost* broke down but first I went & tested with the Keto stix. It was PURPLE!
That gave me enough power to ignore the candy bowl. I consoled myself with 2 pounds of crab legs. (shared with my 6 year-old daughter- "Chicken")
Wondering about these Atkins Advantage Shakes. It says that they are ok for "All Phases".
If so,...

Friday was Nevada Day Observed so I didn't go into work.

I am officially down a pound!

I am 153lbs. and I can taste 152lbs. around the corner. The thing that is working for me is that I only eat when I am hungry, stop when I have had enough, and I am eating low glycemic foods.

I will be weight lifting today (upper body) after work - it has been 2 weeks since I have worked out. Crazy huh?!?! Well at least for me it is.

Until next time.......

coffee/hwc/1 equal
steak

beef

1 carb totaled for the day.

Well, I did it, started my Weight Loss challenge on 10/25/09 with a week of deplete associated with Wendy Chant's "Crack the Fat Loss Code"; I couldn't get my hands on a copy of the book, but did read Wendy's second book "Conquer the Fat Loss Code", which gave me some background info on this plan. The only thing it didn't specify was the "deplete" week. Then I posted here and Mary responded and got me into the forum for CTWLC and with their help was able to master the first week. By the way, the book did arrive on Day 5 of Wk 1, so I have since read and re-read...

hunting for result

whew, 2 days down...no candy .

I didn't quite get all my goals done yesterday. I did eat on plan, I did read the chaptors I had planned in my book. actually read a little more than planned. I got some dishes done but didn't finish it all.


I guess I'll put that in as part of today's goals, lol.

My thought for today:
What are you going to make of today? are you going to just "go through the motions" and get through it? At the end of the day when you look back and ask "what did I accomplish? where did I make a difference?...
