Feeling a little philosophical today. Contemplating the why's of getting and being fat, but mostly just random thoughts. Hope you don't mind if I think out loud...
I think because I didn't feel fat on the inside, i didn't see the fat in the mirror. Going shopping for clothes - getting in that little room surrounded by mirrors was is a little too much truth for me, I prefer my waist up over the bathroom counter mirror better. Sometimes I forget what I look like to other people until I catch someone looking at me funny.
Having a 'fun and sexy' personality might get a couple of dances at a party but 90% of men can't see past the fat and those that can are already taken. I tend to be a little outgoing and it's pretty embarrassing to make a couple of comments to start a conversation and get a weird look or be ignored. I want to say I'm doing this for me but i think a small part of me needs others to find me attractive.
I keep putting off a trip home to visit family because Im going to lose weight first. Haven't seem my extended family in nine years. I'm either going to have to get busy with the weight loss or go to Florida fat.

I'm kinda miffed today, someone stole my iPhone yesterday. My fault for leaving it unattended i guess... I'm due for an upgrade but don't have the cash to get the new fancier one. Not sure if i'm going to make do with something lying around and upgrade later or if i want to go ahead and renew and get a decent phone for free (or low).

I am in the midst of my first big challenge - I'm hoping writing about it will help me through this rough spot - Can anyone say PMS?!
Tuesday night is my night to go out, this is a great improvement - I was eating out for lunch every day during the day, hitting the drivethru some mornings and doing tuesday nights. We usually go to a buffet because there are plenty of choices and I can stay on plan. I had been really struggling all day and had made an effort to have my cake and eat it too by picking up a box of Atkins treats. By the end of the day I had eaten two, sampled too much of the "sugar free" desserts at the restaurant and went totally wrong by adding a few graham crackers before bed. Needless to say, in my hormonal emotional state, I felt like a cow and complete loser.
SO yesterday I am determined to make it better, eating the right breakfast, packing a good lunch, recording my foods, and so forth. On my job, the last two and first two days of the month are the busiest with the most deadlines (stress). This double whammy is doing me in. I finished off the little Atkins bars, eating the last in the car on the way home. Good thing i didn't get a case of them. I got home, grabbed a book, a glass of milk and the graham crackers. I finished the evening off with my scheduled dinner of perfect steak and broccoli.
Usually at this point I get angry and these self-imposed limitations and say "screw it - who cares if I'm fat" but I care and i want move on with my life and I need to do this. SO, all that said, this morning I feel hungover - headache, stuffy nose, blah. But I am determined to get through this and I have a feeling I am sick today because of what I ate yesterday. I am mortified at what the scale says i weigh today, I do not understand the math at all.
Even with my month-end fiasco and gain, my total weight loss for my first month of this new journey, I have lost 13 lbs.

My scale finally registered weight loss!! I gave up getting on it because it didn't seem to like me but today i felt thinner so i gave it a try.
I'm real comfortable with the induction food choices - the only times i go off the list is when I need a treat and I eat a little peanut butter. What I want to know is how to add in the occassional treat. I can see an ice cream bar that gives net carbs (3 and 5 depending on flavor) but what about all these sugar free candies on the market? I saw a goumet chocolate, sugar free dark chololate with coffee and anise, that sounded super yummy. I am hoping this something I will be able to work into my food plan.

I am approaching the end of my third week on Atkins. Not sure how much weight I've lost, my scale is wiggin out a little. I have ignored it for today and won't weigh again until Monday morning - official 3 week mark. I started at 310, dropped 12 the first week, went up 3 and have spent the last 2 weeks jumping up and down between 296 and 301. None of that may be accurate (the 310 was a shocker)but I feel thinner and have been pretty faithful to the induction plan.
I didn't record my food for a few days but i have behaved well, just being lazy. I had a rough day yesterday and it shows in my calories. I didn't eat anything that wasn't allowed, i just ate too much and for the wrong reasons. I'm sure the calorie count was lower than my 'before' amounts but it may take me a few days to undo some damage.
I tapped into some of the Atkins snack bars for the first time - this database counts the net carbs differently that the box does a 12 point difference. That's a lot for induction. Doesn't matter, i didn't eat enough vegtables anyway.
Today is a new day and i'm not weighing until Monday. I think i'll change the batteris in the scale first and if it still behaves oddly, i'll replace it.
