Hi...I also was living the Low Carb life when I became pregnant with my son. He is now 14 months old and I have 60 pounds to lose. I am not in South Carolina but I am in North Carolina. Let me know if that will be okay with you.
I just started again (CHEAT FREE

) on Monday (10-17).

areneeh, sure that would be wonderful.

i have family in north carolina. our babies are about the same age.

just email me and let me know. I would really love to have a penpal. i had one before but everytime she told me she was quiting i felt like it was ok for me to. when i had to tell her what i ate or how i was doing i stuck to it. I stuck to it for 5 months before i got pregnant and took off 40 lbs. just let me know.

teddybear...I'm fairly new to this board so I can not tell how to send you an email (besides posting here)...but my email address is my user name @yahoo.com (I'll erase this after I know that you got it (or at least edit my email address out). I also notice that we started on the same day as well (or shall I say RESTARTED). I guess we could also use this board to chat or just emailing. That's my little fella at 8 months as my avatar.

I guess I can post my meals today:

Breakfast:
3 strips of bacon
2 boiled eggs

Lunch:
Cabbage
Grilled chicken

Dinner: (I am shocked that I was not really tempted because we went to a buffet restaurant...my husbands idea...but I did great)

Roast Beef
Cabbage
Broccoli and Cheese
Took a bite of some VERY salty roasted chicken
Took a bite of salmon (a little too fishy tasting for me)

I have had LOTS of water
The only other thing I have to do is find time to exercise...I feel like I am the only one taking care of the little fella...and by the time he goes to bed in the evenings...I am too wiped out to work out. But...just like I have started eating breakfast...I am going to work out...one of my mini goals for tomorrow is to exercise when my son is taking his nap.

teddybear...how are you doing this morning? I have heard and I know from my previous time on Atkins, that the weekends are hard. I am currently boiling my eggs and will fix my bacon. So...I will edit my meals in this post throughout the day:

Breakfast: 2 boiled eggs
three strips of bacon
water

Lunch: Probably one of my husbands fantastic salads
Salad(w/ crumbled bacon, shredded cheese, chopped boiled eggs,
chopped ham and ranch dressing)
water

hey arenneh, I had a great weekend. I didnt get on a post any this weekend.
I didnt cheat this weekend at all!!!!!!

I have been on one week today. I was down 5 lbs.

I took the weight off faster last time i was on lowcarb but i think by body is still messed up from having the baby. The things us women have to go through. I need to get some exercise in on the treadmill while watching my soaps. so i will talk to you later. I will try to post later. If you want you can send me an email. Just go to my profile and go to the contact. I didnt see one on yours. Have a great day!!! You can do this!!!

menu for today10/24/05

2 boiled egges
5 strips bacon
1 cup green tea with splenda

3 sm grilled steaks (left over from last night)w/ranch dressing
2 bottles of 20 oz water

Hello...and HAPPY Monday! Congrats on making it cheatfree through the weekend.

I survived the weekend as well. The only part I can say I messed up on is...my son had some cheerios and decided he would feed mommy instead of eating them himself...so I ended up with 2 - 3 cheerios before I realized "HEY, I am not supposed to be eating these"

...and I never have liked plain cheerios.

Breakfast:
2 Boiled Eggs
4 Strips of Bacon
1/2 cup of plain black coffee

Lunch:
Grilled Chicken Garden Salad
Unsweetened Green tea

And I have been drinking my water, not as much as usual so now you have reminded me that I need to get more water in, I normally drink 64 ounces while I am at work.

My biggest push I need is to make the time for the treadmill. I am down 5 lbs as well. I need to change my stats, I think I actually started at around 195 or 196...I guess running around all day took 3 or 4 pounds off before I started the plan.
