GlennM's Journal, 23 June 2008

Doing well - though I haven't been posting messages regularly I'm on Atkins for life though I've added fruits and some carb foods like brown rice regularly. Sugar is out except on a celebration of a birthday. I'm close to my goal weight. Not walking much as it has been raining almost every evening - thunderstorms or the threat of them preventing me from going out for a long walk - either that or a prolonged rain. Last week one evening it thunderstormed for like over 4 hours straight, which is not common for western Massachusetts. But it has been raining a lot lately, enough so one can't go for a walk in the evening as it rains, then stops and starts up again frequently. Tomorrow more rain is forecast. Hopefully it will clear up enough to go for a walk. I'm joining a gym in September or October once the cool weather comes and it's too cold to exercise outdoors. I haven't left the site - still here. I've cut back on coffee creamer. That I think was too much and has allowed me to eat other carbs. But I still want to lose a bit more weight though not a lot more, ten or fifteen more pounds to go. One thing for certain it is a lot easier to maintain one's weight loss than to lose it. I can occasionally now have a treat. But more exercising is definitely in my future so I can enjoy more foods - but healthy ones of course. Welcome new people - Atkins is a wonderful way to go to lose weight and stay trim!!! Glenn :)

Glad to hear from you - been wondering how you've been! You are one of my inspirations on getting to that maintenance stuff!!! I'm glad you are doing so well. It's too bad that the storms have been thunderstorms - I really enjoy taking walks in the rain - but it can't be during a storm!! That's not such a good idea!
