Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
I'm Back (Consider this fair warning!)
Hey everyone -- I think about you all every day. At work and at home, I wa**** by some serious losses. I still have a job, but many of my friends have been laid off, and one important mentor/boss dying of cancer, just left to go home and die. So I've been in various stages of ongoing grief for weeks now.
I realize it is a passing triviality by comparison, but my beloved dog of fourteen years also died about two weeks ago.
In all, it's been a rough month or so, and I apologize deeply for leaving the low-carb fold for a while. In all of this, I have managed to gain about twelve pounds of bloated crud.
Summer arrives for me on Friday afternoon. I have purchased a pair of hideous but comfortable purple and black and orange running shoes, that my daughters certainly will not steal, and my morning runs will resume Saturday at six AM. I am lining up my low-carb menus for the coming week, and we shall have at it again, I guess.
Thank you all for your kind and curious messages. They meant a lot to me. I'm still hanging on the edges of profound sadness and trying to right myself, so I'll be back online to help the process along.
