Today is going to be really difficult when it comes to staying on track. We're going to spend the entire day painting and cleaning our new house.

It's amazing what cutting out all the half and half and sweetener will do! Eating three meals a day helps, too. I

Unbelievable! No wonder my weight-loss stalled for so long!
Actually tracking my intake has helped me to realize that about 95% of my carb intake was from aspartame and half & half! WOW!!! This is going to make a tremendous difference to me. I'm so excited!!!! :)

Does anyone else drink Crystal Light? When I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes a few years ago and the nutritionist told me that drinking a regular soda was like putting a loaded gun in my mouth, I immediately gave it up and switched to Crystal Light.
I've always hated the taste of plain water (because I was a soda-holic since I was a young child,) so when I knew I had to drink it doing Atkins I figured I'd sweeten it up a little. Here's my problem, though - I loved, loved, LOVED the Natural White Blueberry Tea. I could easily get my required water intake in as long as I had that Blueberry Tea to mix with it. But now I can't find it
anywhere!
I even wrote to Kraft to inquire about whether they stopped making it. (They didn't.) But I can't find it in any stores, and it's killing my water consumption. I've tried other flavors and I just don't care for them.
So now I'm drinking my water right out of the bottle, and I'm not enjoying it. I'm trying to force myself to like it, but it's hard. Meanwhile, my water consumption has decreased tremendously. (Unless you count the coffee.) Any suggestions? Thanks!

This morning I am going to try something new in hopes of getting my weight loss going again. I am going to try drinking my coffee black! Caffeine is definitely a no-no on Atkins, but I'm so hooked - been drinking coffee since high school. (A lot of coffee... typically around two pots a day.)
Despite that, I still lost a lot of weight doing Atkins last year. Once the weight loss stopped, I admitted to myself that it could very well be the caffeine... If not the coffee itself, then probably all the cream, and the two-million aspartame packets I yummied it up with. (I definitely go over my 20 induction-carbs with just coffee and fixins alone)
I think it worked for me the first five months because I had
SO
much to lose that the weight came off regardless. And now... well, I still have a lot to lose, but not as much as before. It's no secret that the bigger you are, the faster you lose. So it kinda makes sense.
Anyway, my first cup of coffee this morning was just the way I like it - loaded, light and yummy. (I'm just not ready to start my day off without it yet.) Now I'm working on my second cup and it's completely black. Better, right? My logic says that since I'm not crazy about the way this tastes, I might be able to consume less and less coffee every day. We'll see.
I know this is a sad topic to journal about - so, "sorry" if you took the time to read this. But coffee is a major part of my daily routine, so I felt compelled to share my feelings. That's what writers do --- we have tortured souls, you know! :)
