Thanks Saverys.................................................gonna have maybe a small amount of those peppers in my salad tonight! Also, happy with the weight loss....I think I could handle a standstill for 2 weeks if after the standstill I lose 10lbs! then seems worth it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BELLLLLLL PEPPERS...........................I returned my Atkins book....can I have Bell Peppers in Induction and what is the carb / fiber count for a small one :)

TMI about TOM, if you are queezy...do not read............ Ok, so since I have had the Mirena IUD and since I have gained alot of weight I have gone through the symptoms of TOM without having the actual TOM....well since I have started Atkins and am on the last 8 months of my IUD I have had a period. SO since I started…

Ok ya all.......so I got up this am, and well.....the scale said 256 the 2nd day in a row......but this is with my clothes on......went to my grandmothers house and stepped on her scale and hers read 253. My husband weight 232 at home this morning and 232 at granny's........I am thinking I might actually be lower than 256…

Have been very busy all have not been able to log, but have been good. Yesterday was tough, we had a funeral and dinner followed....choices were slim at the buffet, we could not be sure what was in what, and that seemed to back fire..I am sure I had 50+ carbs yesterday.......and then this morning I awake to the scale…

WOW....great job on that 105 lost! I went into your profile and saw your before picture.................YOU LOOK AMAZING. You are the exact size right now that my HOT southern husband is......I think that once we are heavy....who am I kidding when we are fat, we have this preconceived notion of what we are going to look…

Your beating yourself up.....it is ok to indulge once in a while, when we go overboard everyday, this is when you get back into eating wrong. Finish enjoying yourself and don't worry about it......you did great....

Something about this made me giggle......maybe the don't finish kids meals or the fidget....cause that is a silly word. I have found that eating Low Carb eats for me. I think since I started low carb I eat more yummy veggies than I ever did low cal... I also eat when I am hungry. I don't concern myself with…

Great job.........Amazing what 75+ lbs gone looks like :drinker:

Another whino checkin in........yup I dated Chuck in High School.....we are still purdy close :P:drinker:

I have had this one too - I say 11 months :noway:

job interview went well, he said that I was the first interview, he has 15 other applicants to talk to and his boss to see how many positions he is hiring for.......but I think it went just fine!

I did Phentermine and it worked. But it will make your mouth dry and it will cause jitteryness...you will go on it 3 months off 1 month on 3 until you are at healthy weight. I lost 70 lbs, but a year later with lax eating I gained it all plus 50 back. I tried to get on it and it did not have the same effect as it did the…

Oh baby, you sound JUST like me............same years, same ex issue....argh! Dump him and go enjoy your sexy beautiful self with those that will appreciate you! You ARE hot......don't let him make you feel bad, he is the big *kitten*..................

Yep.....I think you are missing 19lbs.......lookin good:drinker:

I love cheese! I am a Low Carb Eater so, I eat all the cheese I want.....yum for cheese! Cut your sodium out somewhere else and keep the cheese :drinker:

Ok, scale is still down.....day # 2, has not gone further than 258 which was yesterday....so I am thinking its a stinkin......have a job interview in 30 minutes, wish me luck!

Heading our in 30 mins!!!! Please pray for me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:ohwell: :ohwell: :ohwell: :ohwell: :ohwell:

Well for starter GREAT JOB on quitting smoker...any doctor would tell you 25 extra pounds is WAYYYYYY safer than smoking....so good job on getting those poops outa the way. As far as the weight.........jump on in baby. We all do it different here, depends on your eating plans. The built in system involves counting…

YOU ALL FLIPPIN ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are right I got this....this is my 2nd interview....he liked me on my first phone interview, he has to like me in person........you all are right. I worked in Silicon Valley with top execs for 15 years....how is am I gonna let a lil interview get me.......thank you ALL!

This is an ongoing subject since I have been here I personally do not eat them per nutritionist/doctor advice.

Hi everyone, I have missed you! I hope you are all doing GREAT!

I replied a few times, and then read on and realized my points were already addressed......I think I get irritated by these posts because I researched this before I started.....I looked into it, and though some may not , there are those of us who did, and I also remember alot of these supposed "facts"......I am glad I…

Try eating a bit more protein in your meals and less sugary carbs....this might help satisfy you :) Good Luck

Thanks Mojo.....I could not have said it better.......

I eat Low Carb, and under dr. supervision. I asked my doctor and nutritionist about this and the answer I got about Liver/Kidney damage is this. IF you have damage to these organs already - Low Carb is not recommended, but for healthy individuals under doctors supervision this is rare. Honest, there are plenty of studies…

Well said thanks Banks

This is not fact Myth: Dr. Atkins died of a heart attack. Fact: Dr. Atkins died as a result of a serious head injury from a fall that occurred April 8th, 2003. Hospital records detail the clinical course that occurred following arrival of Emergency Medical Services through the entirety of his hospitalization, confirming…

I have been. And I think a bit of obsession with your health is ok.....but within reason....25 cals over is not a big deal....but 500 might be. I would give yourself some wiggle room.....remember stress can make it tough to lose too......and this is a lifetime change, do you wanna be freakin yourself out all the time? Just…

Yep.....IT FINALLY BROKE....Like a good fever.............down 2-3 pounds, at 258 today. Not gonna count them chicks yet though...gotta hold it for a couple days...but whew, those were a couple of rough weeks at 260-261........argh.
