OK I.m back...
Ok, I'm back. I no longer have the will power for Atkins, Apparently. I just can't do that right now. I gained back 5 lbs, so I am not waiting to gain 10.:cry: I am back on low cal, low fat, moderate carbs. I can't seem to stay away from the carbs this time round. And the low cal approach gave me so many more options.…

Been Out of the Loop
Hi everyone, been out of the loop for about 10 days. I haven't done too badly but I haven't been counting as closely. I don't think I have eaten too much though, about the same as I have been doing. But you know I feel like if I don't log in here and note all of my intake that I won't be losing weight. Like the taking down…

ouch! Carried away Exercising
I was doing so good last week riding my stationary bike, exercising my arms with small weights, leg lifts on my husband's weight bench...and then I got cocky! I did curls and butterfly things with heavier weights and did MORE than I should have. I wasn't so much sore as exhausted for about 4-5 days. Messed up my whole…

Uh Oh, I am up 2 lbs. I have been staying under my calorie count, low fat. I have been exercising about every other day and was down 3 -4 lbs, now I am back on the other side of the 150 mark. @#$$^^!!!!

Changed to low GI Diet
Hi everyone, I did change over to the lower GI from being on Atkins for a year and it is ok. I like it because i can have more grains, etc. and at 1200 calories I am having a hard time getting UP TO 1200 because I am used to not eating so many things. This week I am not having that problem after the 4th of July and family…

Changed my total Calories
I changed my total calories to 1000 so I would not see so many calories available to me each day. I realized as long as I thought I could eat so many...I would, whether I wanted them or not. I know I am playing games with my head but it may work. :wink:

Down 50, 20 to go
Hi, I am new and have been dieting for about a year on my own. I was diagnosed with Diabetes 2 last year. Only a couple of points in, but enough to put me on medication and change my lifestyle. I went on Atkins and am down 50 lbs. I am stalled here with about 20 to go. I am changing to lower cal/lower fat and low glycemic…

changing from atkins-help
I am coming off Atkins for a while. I lost 50 lbs in the last year but have been stalled at 150 for several months. I am trying to go to something else but I don't know what will happen when I put carbs back in. I am just trying to stay on low glycemic index foods and lower calories/fat. Any ideas? :flowerforyou:
