Finally understand

BeThin · 01-21-2009, 04:59 AM

While doing Atkins I have had problems losing weight. I have tried to tweak the diet in different ways to help figure out what I need to do to lose weight..

I finally did!!!!!

182 -- 173 this morning.

I realized that I needed to use ****** to watch those calories.... I have to count the calories as well as the carbs. IT is what works for me.

I am inspired by how much exercise the biggest loosers are doing on the TV so I up my TIME that I am spending... I walk or run 1 (one) hour in the morning or ride the bike, then I do it again in the evening. IF I am watching TV I try to walk on the treadmill..

I know it sounds like a lot, but it really is not. JUST doing some simple streches while watching TV is keeping me moving and that IS what I need to do is MOVE.

It is working and now I can see me getting to my goal...

I am so thrilled... I know I will need to keep doing what I am doing to continue losing and I am determined to reach my goal this time. I know it will be slow, but hopfully by spring I will see 150 or less...

That is what this journey is all about!!!

Taking the time to really learn YOUR own body and what works for you!!!

I have found that in order for me to have the success that I had in 2003, the very first time I attempted Atkins, I have to eat Fat and lots of veggies and some protein...................

This keeps me satisfied too!!!
