I've been thinking about why I fell off the wagon last time. I'd been doing really well for 2 months-- had lost 30 lbs. and hadn't cheated once. We were going to a wedding out of state and I'd planned for awhile to let myself have a piece of wedding cake. I'd been really good for weeks, knowing I would eventually get that cake. Well, I ended up cheating fairly early on on our vacation. I did well traveling and on the plane, but I had a piece of toast at a diner and it all went downhill from there. I gained over 10 lbs. in 4 days. Within 2 days back on induction I'd dropped all I'd gained (probably a lot of bloat). I did well for another month or so, got down into the high 250s and then the holidays hit and I started that horrible teaching job and it all just went to shit.
The cravings aren't so bad, but I'm still having them a little. It's weird.. it's not so much a physical craving now, but a psychological one. I think I do need some carbs, so I'm going to go have some veggies in a sec, but I know I don't need a soda or piece of cake, which is what I'm really craving. :) I'm eating out twice later today and so have been avoiding veggies this morning, but I think I need to have a salad. I'll try not to overdo veggies at one of the restaurants. Better an extra veggie than I cave and eat something loaded in carbs. I've just been giving myself pep talks and trying to work through the cravings. I've also been talking a lot to my brother and daughter. I know they're up there watching out for me and want me to live a long life and be happy. My brother was the one who turned me onto Atkins 2 years ago and I'm trying to really make this work in honor of him. I know I'd really like to have something sugary right now, but I know I'll feel physically bad afterward. I can eat something now that will give me a good feeling for less than 5 minutes or I can feel good and have energy, and eventually be physically fit and feel great, and have a family. Feeling wonderful and having babies and the energy to keep up with them is so much more important to me that a soda.

I tried a new desert recipe and it was good. Even my husband loved it! We hate sugar-free substitutes, but I thought this might be good given the high fat content and I was right! Whipping cream made it even better. I even passed the recipe onto my friend who has borderline gestational diabetes.
Although I liked it, it set kind of weird in my stomach and eating sweets made me feel kinda weird.. think I'm just not used to sugar-free substitutes.
He didn't like my pork rings, though:
"It's like a bacon chip.. augh. It tastes like someone scraped the bacon smell off of our walls."
Slowly getting him to do Atkins with me. ;)

Does anyone know the carb count on the new KFC grilled chicken?
Is it Atkins Induction friendly or are there hidden sugars in the marinade?
Never mind! I looked it up-- no carbs, no sugar! That chicken is gooood! I don't eat out much, but nice to have an easy fast-food choice if necessary on the run. :D
