Okay I am doing fairly well at this thing. I didn't think that I could do it. But so far I have lost 3lbs. I'm eating under 20 grms of carbs a day. Came close to going over today but I didn't, also doing well with my calories. I'm eating between 1000 and 1200 cals a day. I tried a couple of the Atkins bars. I didn't mind them but some were too sweet for me. I have given up chocalate. At least the real stuff any way, and having one of the bars was sweet at first.
I found a sugar free one, made with splenda so it is okay to have while on Atkins. It is called Carbolite. it says it has 155 of carbs but there is no Fiber count so I am not sure how to figure out the right amount ?????? I am getting better with drinking my water, I have also cut back on the amount of diet pop I drink. I haven't cut it out all together yet,But I am working on it.
I am drinking three to four bottles of water a day, they are 500 ml's each. Once I have at least two to three bottles, I then allow myself to have a diet coke. I have cut out all other caffine. I have gone 23 days with out having any ice cappucinno's. I'm impressed with myself. I started this challenge Dec 23/03 and am doing it for one and a half months.
I have other challenges I am doing and will add them later as I go on. Guess thats it for today, will write more tomorrow or as soon as I can
