Good news!! I got a message from one of Lorik's friends. Turns out her computer crashed and she is looking for a new one!!! Whew!! Now I feel a little foolish for my panic (smiles nervously).
Funny. I panicked when they changed the group and challenge section on FS, too. Hmmmm....I seem to be panicking more than normal lately! So be careful people!! You never know what might set me off!! :)
So, someone else sent me a message saying that they were disappointed that I was "giving up" on Atkins for a few months. After all my talking about my changed lifestyle, this person pointed out that I seemed to have dropped all of that.
I want you all to know that even though I've mentioned that I'm taking a break for the next month, I have not changed my lifestyle completely. I still follow Atkins most of the time. But I think I'm more on the maintenance plan than the losing plan!! ha! I have been allowing myself more carbs and more indiscretions than I should if I want to continue to lose. But I am still avoiding flour, potatoes (most of the time!), sugar and most bad carbs. My indulgences have been mostly healthy (with the exception of some cocktail hours!!), like corn on the cob, fresh salsa with beans and tortilla chips, fresh peaches, etc. But I try to limit those items to once a day. I don't want to put on any of the weight that I've lost.
Now, having said that....I am off to the Iowa State Fair tomorrow. Oh yes. I will, most likely, have a corn dog. And I'm very curious about this spaghetti on a stick thing. Don't know if I want to try it, but I'm hoping someone I'm with will!!
But it won't be a "gorge fest", by any means - like it used to be. Because my life has changed. And the truth is - I just don't want to feel like crap for the rest of the day. It's a big day. And then I'm ending it with a Rick Springfield concert. HA!! How cool am I? And I need Rick to see the sexy me!!!
Hopefully I'll have a couple pics to share when I return on Sunday. I think its about time I posted a picture.
Have a good weekend everyone! I know you just won't be able to handle the jealousy you feel for my weekend...but try. Someday maybe you will be this cool, too... :)
