Hi!

I am from Chesterfield, MI right by the Air national gaurd base.
I just started Atkins on the first of January. I lost 7 lbs so far I found out I wasn't doing a few things right so I am starting over.
Do you you guys know if we can drink Crystal light?
I can stand this plan water and am not a fan of coffee.
Hope to talk to ya'll soon
Jenny

Zalene123 · 01-18-2004, 07:55 PM

I just read all the replies and I will send an e-mail to everyone. Sorry if it has been a few days since I checked this. I am still doing great! I don't know how much I lost yet, because I am only weighing myself every two weeks (which is this Tuesday 01/20/04) I know I lost....hope it's more than 5 lbs! Well, it's kind of late right now so I will talk with all of you soon.

Keep up the good work, everyone!

uscgwife · 01-19-2004, 05:03 AM

whoooooooooooooo hoooooooooooooooooooo! I lost 2.5 pounds YEAH i am so happy!

Zalene123 · 01-21-2004, 06:09 AM

I just weighed in after 2 weeks on induction and I lost 8 pounds! Yes!!!!

I am so happy. I might stay on induciton for another two weeks and then start adding carbs slowly. Congrats to everyone!

uscgwife · 01-21-2004, 01:10 PM

Oh! that is great, It makes you feel so much better about your self when the weight starts coming off doesn't it! I am going to stay on Induction for ahile longer too.
I will be in touch. Not feeling so good today

Zalene123 · 01-22-2004, 06:21 AM

Yes, it does feel good when the weight is coming off. Although, yesterday I messed up, I left myself get too hungry and then grabbed the first thing I saw (White Castle) OH NO! But today I am back on my best low carb behavior and I don't think that will effect me too much. I will be on induction for another two weeks so hopefully I can make up for my mistake. However, I am not going to let it get me down. One day at a time, one pound at a time!

uscgwife · 01-23-2004, 06:50 AM

well just take it one day at a time. Its very hard ! At least for me. I think I have been doing pretty good I am down to 212 from 225 when I started 1-1-04 , yesterday I was busy all day and found my self starving with a migraine. so I made pband jelly...but It wasn't totally bad. I bought lowcarb bread and sugar free jelly. It still added up to like 18 carbs but .... I had to eat something my head was killing me. Well I weighed myself this morning and I am still at 212 so at least I didn't gain from it.
I have been craving something sweet though. I need to find out if we can have sugar free pudding? do you know if we can have that? well I plan on staying on induction for awhile at least till I can get my self out of the 200's, My husband said he can tell I am losing weight. I still can't tell My cloths are still tight. How many pounds do you have to lose to go down a size in clothing?
( hey you got me thinking about white castle!!!!

lol)
well I might not be on the computer for a few days. our neighbor is going to re program it. But e-mail me and let me know how you are doing. Have you been working out?
Bye bye Have a great day!!!

Zalene123 · 01-23-2004, 11:14 AM

Yeah I am taking one day at a time

! Some of that low carb products are bad, some are ok and then some like Carbolite products are really good. I got a recipe from this site for No Carb Cheesecake and it is in the old recipe room. It is very good

I made it for my birthday (today 01/23)

I think if you lose 10-15 lbs, you go down a size in clothing. However, you might lose inches and show no weight loss. So I think it depends on each individual person.

Sorry

to make you think of that high carb place! LOL!!

Well, time to get back to work. Hope to hear from you soon.
