:wave: good morning!!!!!
It's a super duper hot day. Pool time this morning if the kiddos don't get themselves in trouble first :lol: :lol: yesterday they didn't listen so we not able to have pool time. Not much happening with me ...same WOE, different day. Have a wonderful Wednesday everyone.. Woot-woot on starting #9 !!!! 🚄🎳🚦🚒 |
:hyper:
Came back to a new thread :) :thup: Good news! I weighed in this morning and I am UP only 1/2 lb. from when I left. NOW that to me is a super successful trip....10 days away in a land of carbage and drinks and I HELD MY GROUND WELL and only up 1/2 which will be gone tomorrow I am sure~ first time I left on trip and came back literally ON the weight I left....well 1/2 lb. up but to me that is nothing :p :p Trip was wonderful. my ribeyes on the grill at the rv were stellar. Thing was I had to combat the 'eating out'. hubby was in a massive 'everything eating out' and ALL he could get for different tastes. BBQ place one day.....all you can eat crab/seafood joint another, then a friggin' pizza joint....then kiddo dragged us out to chinese for lunch and SO ON and so on and the one thing that made this trip horrible....and I am serious here....THE WANT OF FOOD. It drove me insane. Almost to the point of screaming NO MORE. It is disgusting. It is addictive insane focus on food while on vacay. IT SHOULD NOT be that way. I see it.....they don't :p :p :D I tell ya thank goodness I brought MY food. tuna before eating out. a big old ribeye before being dragged out to chinese and SO on......as long as I ate before the 'mass carbage attacks' I was OK. I just don't 'do food' like others any more and thing is I DO NOT want to do it like the old days :cool: SO HI to everyone. I saw Bernie had her appt and got stellar thyroid results from the Dr. GO BERNIE. SEE....food is our friend if we do it right. FOOD is the enemy to SO MANY of our aches/pains/'conditions'/diseases and more it is pure insanity anymore. So happy for ya Bernie!!!! off to get a ton done. pool handled. goats checked. off to store for 'milk' and other crap to feed them :p done. 4 loads of laundry done already--check all flower planters watered well...done working on my home soap biz to fill orders...omg crazy amt of orders but that is a good thing LOL So far so good. Great vacay, no damage, NEW perspective on HOW we eat and how to avoid MY pitfalls and all is in good shape! everyone have a fab day...off to get more done here....catch up from vacay is never fun but ya gotta do it. OH, new RV was perfect. we love it! |
WTG Karen :thup:
I am happy for you that you stayed OP on vacation, that can be so challenging, especially with the family wanting to eat out so much. You did yourself proud! Your RV sounds great, hopefully we can get one after we move and retire. No place to keep one right now. :wave: |

You know Karen, it doesn't get easier, at least that's been my experience! I just remind myself how far I've come and is it really WORTH face planting into a carb-age dish! And the answer is always a resounding Oh HELL NO! :nono: Quote:

At the end of her vaca, Karen DID NOT regret what she DID NOT eat since she REFUSE to serve herself up a plate of GUILT! :agree: Woot! Woot! :thup: Quote:

Hi Warriors! :wave:
Today was supposed to be sunny and hot...but, it's pretty grey and almost cool! Gona walk up to the store to get the things I forgot to get yesterday. :lol: Not much to report; exercising every day- usually just a few push ups...sometimes a walk.. Eating is 100% on plan. Like to keep it simple: bacon for breakfast, salad and protien for lunch, beef or lamb with salt for dinner. Coffee. Water. When I can stay to this basic menu- I feel great and good things happen! Can't remember if I posted this already, but I read on another site (a strict meat-eaters forum) that, meat provides all the nutrients we need, and veggies are the cleaners. They claim it is becasue of this that people who switch to vegetarianism usually feel GREAT ...at FIRST. Then, after the first couple of weeks, sense of well being goes down and overall health deteriorates on prolonged veggie diets. Kinda' like how dogs are complete carnivores, but they eat grass every couple weeks or so. interesting stuff. Happy Wednesday! |
Hello warriors,
Welcome back Karen! You did an awesome job navigating through all the carbage! So proud of you what an accomplishment and a new understanding also on how carbage and food are tied to the good times😀😀. Judi, sorry to hear about your hip but awesome job gettin out there and doing the walk. Jams, the day with your DD yesterday sounds so awesome what a great time you are having enjoying your life and 100% on plan! De, so good to hear from you I hope little ones were good so you all get pool time! Jo, thank you for setting up our new thread and bringing all the precious information from Dr. Atkin. I luv to read it again every time we start a new thread. Just reinforces all I know and the amazing knowledge Dr. Atkin shared! Thanks to you Jo and all the warriors our thread is such a source of comfort and reinforcement when things are crazy😀👍 Have a spectacular day warriors and take care! |

And what I've notice is that once people start losing weight and get the energy from being in ketosis, they just want to start moving... all good things! :thup: Quote:
I think most of us here have a simple menu. I know mine is b/c if I spend too much time thinking about food (even OP foods) it makes me "head" hungry. So the way I resolve that is to keep it extremely simple! Quote:
Do you have the URL or can you cite the source b/c I'd love to read more about that! Quote:
Hey you didn't tell us what fun adventure you and your DD have planned for today! |

We all seem to be on the same page and understand the trials and tribulations of following one of the more restrictive LC WOE plans! Our success is based on the fact that we STAY 100% OP today and let tomorrow take care of itself! Quote:

Karen, good for you! I hate it when we eat out. Do you just drink water when you go out? I will have to think about that... Dh is getting more used to my being lc now. Maybe he wouldn't freak out as much as I think he would. That would be hard for me, too...just to sit and watch him eat. I dunno...for now, he always makes sure that we go somewhere that I can order lc.
Surgery is this morning...kind of like a hysterectomy repair. I left a message for the food service, asking for lc meals. Am packing 5 oz nuts. If they don't come through with my request, I'll eat the nuts or just not eat! One huge benefit of fasting is that I've learned skipping a meal won't kill me, lol! It's an overnight stay. Thanks to whoever said they would pray for me, I do appreciate that! Alarm just went off, time to shower and go. Glad to read your posts and get a shot of encouragement. Blessings, all! |
yea DE the RVs take up space :) You have to have enough to park it easily :thup: Retirement and college for kid hit at the same time, lol, but one thing I said to hubby is when we retire we can sell this house and all the land and BE DONE with it all. I can not wait til I quit homeownership :p :p
JO, love that new cheerleader pic! you are so right, it never gets easier. the only thing we can do is hold our ground, stand firm, and get thru the stupid situation as best as we can! I must have said a million times, what the heck, I can't fight city hall, just eat whatever the heck I want! But, ya know what, I CAN fight city hall and win :p HI Bernie---so glad A72 is what is your calling and is working so well for you!! I agree, this thread and a strict A72 plan is the bomb! :) Jama---eating simple is key for me. the more 'I tried' to make fancy lc substitute recipies, make fake sweetener desserts etc....the more I failed. SIMPLE is the best for many of us!! Lauri, prayers with you today on your surgery. You will come thru fine with flying colors! smart to keep the lc strategy alive. It is JO who does water or a diet pepsi when eating out with friends :) I do have something. At BBQ I had a few plain ribs to '''slowly''' munch while they were attacking all that food---at the chinese place I had some cold peel and eat shrimp, again while they inhaled it all...at pizza joint I had a small side salad with ranch while they pigged out. I can't do like JO, I find a 'small something' to have while eating out and the funny thing is---the family WANTS me to eat with them. So if I just sit there I freak THEM out...isn't that wild....so when I am out with them in that situation I do a small lc food and just eat slow and little. It makes it work for us LOL HI ALL just cruising along. have to mow the world today :) :) still unpacking rv and other stuff, busy busy busy right now but at least I do work from home so I have tons of time to get it all done. Have a fun day all!! |
