Thumbs up California Biddy?

Hi Tammy and Pixx,
I'm on day 6 and just got into ketosis. It is 1:30 pm and I have been sanding primer on my 69 ElCmino since about 8:30 am. It is a repeat of saturday. I have been trying to stay at 20 carbs because I want to get this 33 pounds off now. No that is 30 pounds off as 3 are already gone. I have been doing Atkins for many years. I think I wigged out a little the first time I reached goal. I couldn't believe I was a size small after so many years in xxx. I let the weight sneak back on by telling myself I could have anything with no sugar and low carb. That just is not so. Recently I have decided to try to be open eyed about everything. For example 1 cup of cabbage is 2.4 ounces in weight according to my nutritional Resource book. Romaine lettuce is 2 ounces per cup. there is little resemblence between the cup of lettuce I made before and the weighed one I have now. I have had to stop all dairy as I need more and more when I do have it. I also love diet soda and they really mount up in a day. What would you say are the high hurrdles you are facing in this weight loss challenge? Well good luck. I will check back soon.
Pam

Hey...I just noticed your reply from the beginning of May. I've also noticed that we are the only two on here from 2004, so...wanna be MY buddy? I just started (day 1), so you are ahead of me (how's it going by the way?). My husband and I are trying to do this together...maybe I can stick with it longer this time!

Hi, everyone. Mind if I join you? I am looking for some buddies! I just started Atkins 1 1/2 weeks ago and have lost 4 pounds. I need to lose another 20! Goal weight: 150. My big challenges: (1) dinner parties where people force food and wine on me and (2) coffee -- I'm terribly addicted. I also have worries about doing this long-term: Will I be able to maintain a low carb diet over the long term?

I am a kind of true believer in terms of what Atkins says, though. I KNOW carbs are my problem.
