Day Five - mixed feelings......

Well, so far, I've done pretty good on the Atkins thing with a few slip up bites here and there. I'm still going to keep going for at least the two weeks I set out to accomplish.

Taken from another blog, I'm going to play "This, Not That".

I'm a night person, not a morning person.

I have a salt tooth, not a sweet tooth.

I'm a spender, not a saver (unfortunately).

I'm an all-or-nothing girl, not a baby steps girl.

I'm a lover, not a fighter.

Have a great day all!

Burst Into Summer Challenge

I've had a pretty good eating day. About 10 m-n-m's tried to derail me but I got back on the straight and narrow. I also taste tested one bite of homemade onion rings I made.

Started a new challenge over on Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans:

Burst Into Summer Challenge

I am on team 32. YAY!

A few updates.....

So, on the hair situation. I ended up going lighter with some blonde highlights. I am currently entertaining the thought of adding more.

I am now on day three of the Atkins diet. I am playing with the idea that this is how I lose weight, and Weight Watchers is how I maintain. The last time I went on Atkins, I lost about 15 pounds. I then kept it off with Weight Watchers. I just don't lose well on WW. Its just too.....free....or something. With Atkins, I lose, not only because I cut carbs, but because the options are more limited (especially right before payday) so it keeps me from eating things I normally wouldn't. With Weight Watchers I can justify it, using points until I don't have any left.

Sooo.....its going well so far. Other than being sick of eggs for breakfast, I'm doing ok with it. I'll update with my loss on Monday. I started out at 268.4 this Monday.
