The first week of Atkins was ok...I slipped a few times and it makes me wonder why I can't seem to stay focused. I'm down to 182.6. Not too much but something I guess.
I think part of my problem is that I put myself first these days...suppose this is normal when you become a parent. But as each week passes while my weight stays in the 180's I know that I'm not doing anyone in my family any good by feeling miserable about my appearance. I just feel so down that I'm not thin, and that I have a muffin top when I wear my jeans. :(
This week I'm going to try to be a little more prepared and go on the atkins website and print up some recipes. After reading Emily's blog, I realize that I too have to someone become obsessed with every morsel that goes into my mouth for this to work. We all know where picking a little here and a little there does.
So here's to a better week! I think I'll be out of the 180's next week - fingers crossed!!

Good luck sticking to it this week. I'm sure you can do it! Just think how happy you will be to see good numbers. You'll get out of the 180s. It has been all I can do to get out of the 140s, and they're back today! Ugh! We just have to keep at it.
I was thinking about maybe starting a board (there are free forums that are pretty easy to start) where even if there are only a few of us, we can check in on each other and vent and whatnot without having to wade through massive amounts of posts like on weight loss sites. I might see if anyone else would be interested and start that. That way we can check in on each other as often as we want. Thoughts?
So? How's it going? Are you staying on track? I'm checking in on you! :)
how are you doing Danielle??? join the board that Em is staring so we can all stay in touch better...
