My friend is going to start Atkins this Monday of August 1rst. For me just my calories is not working for me!! I am slowly trying to ease into Atkins. I don't want stomach flu to hit me. I started after my breakfast time, but I need the extra time to ease in on it! I am going to have a bigger problem trying to eat less carbs for me it will be less food and calories, so the non Atkins foods in a very small moderation is going to help me up my carb count, and not feel deprived! I hope the small amount will not hurt! I rather start small, and slow, instead of abrupt!!
So, we went into Wal Mart. First I went into the dollar tree we have down here, and I found that bubble bath, just don't ask when I will do it. I waited up on my husband, while he went for an estimate to give. After 15n minutes he came back, he said an hour so I was looking at the makeup at Wal Mart! So, there he was, I kept looking at the south door where I was going to wait, he finally showed up, zooming a cart with a huge bag of dog food! Motor oil also! He had gotten a kitty collar, but I said no, Felix just lost a new one!! And he has to learn he can't do that. He also came limping, and like something got of hold of his tail, he was scalped!! A line going straight down on his tail!! Well, he has been staying put by our house since then!!
So, this carb diet is going to be very hard for Atkins bars, I did not even ask my husband to get any for now, time being!! I did however get two cream cheeses, two containers of sour cream, and 2cup container of heavy whipping cream. It was $40 something. The dog food got rang up twice, but then it was taken out once. I was shaking my head as I went out the door, Oh yes, also one can on Gr. Value Columbian coffee, that had gone up in price, but that was it!! No candy bars either, not even the bargain ones for a dollar going up and down by their side isles. It was awful they are remodeling, new resisters! Boy! I though business must be good!! Well, I guess I-we are giving it to them!! Oh well, I looked at the baby things. I finally saw the garanimals or whatever they are called, sleeveless, 3 to 6 months. They were $3 down here in Missouri!! Last time I could not find them so I got James the Cartes brand about $5.75 each!! I wish they would leave things alone so I could find them!! Funny when they ask you, did you fine everything okay!!! I wish I can tell them, well, if you leave everything alone, I will!! But ma, raised a very good, and proper, and polite Greek Orthodox girl, so I cannot say that!!! I did not ask George to buy anything else! This time!! I just could not, he does not have that much hair these days so I think I have spared him all that he's got!! Ammmm this time!!! Last time my daughter got me mad!!! But nothing to do with that!! I guess one of these days we will write more about that!!! So, that's the deal with me! I spent $3.24 at the dollar tree. James will always be on my priority list now. My little boug-boug!!
I like my friend saying to me, it is not even about how I look now Kathy. It is about health!! She has been saying that for years now, and I love this way of looking at things!! Of course we want to look good, but after a while, even though in our spirit we are young "you know?" Things just seem to go down hill!!
I personally do not like before, and after pictures for me, but I love looking at you guy's before, and after pictures!! You are all really brave!!!
Well, that's it!!! Trying to watch the carbs, but it is like one more struggle in my mind!!!
