Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
MONDAYYYyy!!! CARb Accountability Roundup Time
Morning, y'all!
Today is going to be a quiet day at home, and already I'm finding my appetite is lower than it would be on a more active day.
B: 1 oz lox, about half a tablespoon creamcheese, rolled up
Coffee, coffee, coffee .... with evaporated milk as creamer (my fave)
I poached some eggs, but they're just sittin' there gettin' cold ... not much appetite
S: Tuna salad with celery
L: Fried cheese with marinara
S: Maybe a protein shake
D: Turkey meatballs, spaghetti squash, green salad

hello.... back to normal life...
Sunday was not a very good "low carb day"... but then that is a one day from.. not sure how many... It was all good carbs (mostly) and all combined with fat and proteins... with more proteins than carbs. So overall - not really a bad day.
Today is back to my normal - low carb diet.
PB: coffee + almond milk
B: cheese, protein bar...
L: spicy green beans + ham
S: protein shake, or yogurt w/proteins
D: not sure... but some meat and veggies...
LNS: cheese or protein shake.

Looks like a good day to me, and lots of those veggies!

Pulling myself back in check this week. While I've managed to keep net carbs in down I've allowed total carbs to creep upward. I do best when watching both but I'm only half way there today.
Monday
Missed my mark with total carbs over 100g and 25% total calories. Net carbs well under 50g and fats nicely over 45% of calories. I skipped a proper breakfast abd dinner. Too many protein bars driving up total carbs with sugar alcohols.
2 small protein bars, fried chicken, 1 large protein bar

cucumber, smoked pork shoulder, iced tea, water

oh I am SOOO sorry this happened to you! My daughter had one of those last fall, right as school was beginning -- lasted about 36 hours, but she thought (and then wished) that she would die.
Bounced right back though -- and hope you will too!

Thanks, this morning 300am I was feeling about the same as your daughter. dry heaves by then,got up on the side of the bed to go to the bathroom to heave again and couldn't get undizzy. Actually passed out and fell over onto DH who was waiting to see what I was gonna do. He said I just fell over into the bed ans was still retching aaaaaaand dry heaving.
All I remember about that part was being SO dizzy and then him calling my name urgently. Couldn't hardly walk to the bathroom even with and was throwing up bile/acid all over myself. I threw up my Nexium at bed time.
I feel better than that today though still a little wave of nausea every now and then. I am sticking to G2 today,I think.
I keep thinking poor DGSs if they felt as bad as I did,whew!
