Seems like this was the question of the weekend which was funny since someone else posted about this in the Lobby this morning .

On Friday, Anna and I went out for lunch. She is the picky one but when I asked her where she wanted to go...she started whining that I was the problem 'cause now I don't eat "bread and stuff". "I want pizza but you don't eat pizza!" she cried. SIGH! That's how I found myself in Tim's Pizza staring at a menu that has basically...beer, pizza, beer, pizza, etc. I ate one piece of a "mini" meathead...a little salad...

I just finished week 2 and I only lost 2 pounds. The book says that I should have lost 8-10 pounds after my first 2 weeks. My friend is doing it with me and we work together. She has lost 8 pounds. Im not cheating. I just dont get it. What am I doing wrong ???? Im eating nuts, eggs, meat, cheese and veggies.

I think I've been counting my pumpkin seeds wrong. My seeds say there are 4g carbs per 1/4 cup edible. Once I noticed that little word, I looked them up on Fitday and found that they have more carbs "unhulled" than "hulled".

So I've been undercounting my 'kin seeds, significantly. I've been eating 1/2 cup a day, thinking they only amounted to 8g. Actually, they're 16, all by themselves.

Live and learn! Same weight today as all last week: 173.8.

here on the LCF blogs! I've noticed that quite a few regular posters have not been around for the past week or so . That kinda makes me sad. I know that when things aren't going well...it can be hard to post. You feel like such a failure and that you are letting everyone down. But hey, gang, that's not how it is at all. There isn't a one of us who hasn't messed up at some point...fallen hard off the old HC wagon...underestimated the power of the peanut butter cup...convinced ourselves that we'd rather eat that doughnut, hamburger, tortilla chip, (insert carb treat of choice)...
