Thanks, good people. I really appreciate your help, but I gotta stop laughing first. Someone asked if I was taking SSI..R or Depressants and lo and behold, next think ya know I'm getting warned about the side effects from taking them. Too funny, but thanks. That SSI...R looks like either social security comes in pill form now? Or I'm ingesting Nazi Emblems (for what?) that cause my weight to stall. Sorry, guys I don't won't even pretend to know what the latter (ssi..r) is.
I thought it was cute, but I'm not depressed and I haven't been prescribed nor do I take any medications besides my daily supplements which consists of CLA (conjugated linolenic acid) which is a fat transporter to help you lose inches; Evening Primrose Oil (for hot flashes); GNC High Potency Women's Formula Multivitamin w/o iron, CoQ-10 (heart rhythm regulator) and L-Carnitine (works in conjunction with Co-enzyme). I drank so much water yesterday, I think I brought in the tide.
It's disheartening knowing the Atkins' Diet is unforgiving. I regained the weight bc I didn't take it seriously enough and allowed outside interference to undo my progress. It looks really silly written down how a person can just give away power like that.
I could easily join the naysayers and shout "Atkins doesn't work", but the truth is--it's not working for me anymore. But I promised myself I would give it three more weeks then say goodbye forever to this WOE.
I do great when I workout and watch my food choices. I've always eaten low carb. I don't crave potatoes, bread, and it's been months since I've eaten a sandwich.
Last night was a shock. I never thought I would get physically ill from eating carbs. I was sick so many times that I didn't fall asleep until 1:00a.m.
I gave it an honest try. I see what the next three weeks bring before I finally shut down the show. Thanks to all.
