Dieting in Deep Space

Back on the Atkins Wagon - For Life!


About 3 or so years ago I lost about 4 stone (1 stone = 14 lbs, so 56 lbs), but I ended up putting on even more when I slipped back into my old way of eating.

A problem that many former Atkins dieters encounter is that when they come off Atkins, instead of cutting out the high protein / fat, they just add carbs to it (which is what I did), and that is just not an option - it seems to me that there are 3 diet options: 1) eat less, but eat what you like - a good choice if you c...

Not quite back on the diet wagon yet...

I haven't quite climbed back onto the diet... yet... but I haven't put any weight back on at least, so that's positive!

I'm still figuring out exactly what diet I should be on (you have to have your 'determined head' on for Atkins!), and in the meantime, just trying to eat as healthily as possible. Perhaps that way I won't actually need a 'diet' as such.

Just a bit gutted...

I've been steadily losing lbs, and according to the scales in the downstairs bathroom, I've lost almost 6 lbs and I'm about 13 and 1/2 stone now! Great!....

...but then when I checked the more accurate electronic scales upstairs.....

Apparently I'm still 14 st.

I'm positive I've really lost, because my clothes are beginning to feel just the slightest bit loser, but it looks as though my original assessment of my weight may have been out by almost another 1/2 s...

Yay! I've lost...

...1lb!

Well to be honest, I wasn't expected any loss yet, so I'm really pleased! It's the first time in about 18 months or more that the scales have dipped below 14 stone (14 lbs to a Stone). Ten stone (140 lbs) seems a long way off right now, but I know it's not impossible because I've done it before.

Between now and then, though, I will have to figure out a way of healthy eating at the same time as maintaining my ideal weight. Last time I didn't make it to the real ...

Atkins Day 1 and 2

I have finally started on my Atkins diet.

My fridge is chock-full of green vegetables and salad, and to be honest it could well be healthier than ever my diet was before I was on Atkins!

Well, here's a basic run-down on what I've eaten:

Day One

Breakfast - Fried egg. (Of course, the Ferengis smellt it cooking and demanded their own ones, so whereas I had planned on having 2, I ended up only having 1). I added lettuce and tomato and linseeds (and a d...

Fallen off the Low-carb Wagon

I've fallen off the low-carb wagon a bit this week.

I was feeling a little bit disenchanted with Atkins this time round as the weight isn't dropping off like it did last time, so I've had quite a few carb 'sins' this week:

Sunday: I got talked into Kentucy fried chicken. I had about 5 pieces! (((Sigh!!!)))

Thursday: Pasta salad (and I finished up my children's unfinished plates too, so that probably counts for 60 g of carbs!)

Friday: I had 2 little roast potatoes with my dinner. Also I forgo… Continue

Hi Kira,

I'm doing well. It's been a little hectic lately. How are things with you?
I started a new program called the P90x and I am really loving it! It combines an extreme workout (everyday for about an hour or so) and a diet plan (with yummy recipes!) When I started the program I noticed results early on, but then I dropped off of the program for a while and am back to where I started, so I am totally committed now!

Cheers,
Nicole

Hi Kira!

Hope you're doing well! I am working on some updates to the site and marketing so that we can increase our membership and make the site more valuable to all. How is your diet plan going? Winter time is always rough for me because I lack the motivation and look for comfort food, i.e. carbs!

Cheers,
Nicole

Just keep up the great work. My thing is don't think of it as a diet, think of it as a lifestlye. It will work like you said you have to want it. I would like to invite you to go on my web site www.angelsforhealth.com and let me know if there is any thing I can help with.
I am new to this web site, so I am still learning. Hope you get a chance to check out my web site. Gail

Hi Kira, its ok. Today is another day. I think we have to understand that we all do things that are bad for us. We have the choice to change. I know you can do it, You do need carbs, just the right ones. I have been taking Herbalife for years and I am telling you I have never felt better. Hope to here from you soon. Gail Fuller
