Yesterday went off without a hitch. I ate turkey, eggs, half a cucumber, a bratwurst and some mayo. I drank coffee with heavy cream and unsweet tea. Sounds like I did ok, doesn't it? Well I guess I did, but I didn't loose even one pound. For those of you who have been on Atkins before you will understand my dispointment. I can usually expect to loose 2-3 pounds the first day, even if it is just from the amount of peeing I do. Not this time though. I strated to be upset, but then I remembered my resolve not to look forward OR backward. I am doing this today, not in the past so I guess I am ok with it.
I kept busy writing letters of interest for jobs I think I might be interested in and I went to the grocery store to buy just a few "Atkins" foods like cucumbers and tea. All in all yesterday was successful and today is shaping up as well.
I feel totally unstressed about dieting. It helps that family and friends are traveling the same road with me and my support goes out to them. I can do this, you can do this, we can do this.
So, "What's next?", you ask. I guess I should make some eggs for breakfast since it is almost lunch time. Have a protein rich day everyone.
