 What’s this? Summarizing before the end of the month? Well, October is just 2 days away and I totally blew the Atkins diet yesterday. My remaining 2 days of September aren’t really enough time to jump back into Induction so I will count yesterday as my end-of-diet feast and we will move on to the […]

Well, I haven’t reported for awhile. Mainly because I haven’t had much to report. I have maintained a pretty low carb diet for the last couple of weeks, but sort of hit a plateau in weight. I do think I could drop back to “induction” levels and probably start dropping again, but I […]

I am feeling a heckuva lot better after some rest! See my last entries. Been under the weather big time.  Still low-carbing it. I have moved it up from the 20 grams a day now and am closer to 30 grams a day at this point. Still seeing some weight loss.
We’ll see where […]

Whew…I am STRUGGLING. Not just with the diet, but maybe some of that. Here is a different format than my normal posts. I am just going to run down the last few days.
I was diagnosed with strep throat for the second time in three weeks. I went on Augmentin this time since my […]

This is a pic from my recent run. New PR t 27:11. Pretty pleased with that. I haven’t run ytthis week though I have kept up the weights. I missed running Tuesday. I really need to run today. I did find out yesterday I have strep throat AGAIN. Having kids in school is […]

I managed to stick with the diet pretty strictly over the weekend. I basically ate very similarly to the 4 days I blogged during the week. I managed to make it through the opening Sunday of football season without blowing my diet. That  was a major accomplishment for me.
Hey, the 5K Run For […]

Weight continues to go down. Many folks have told me that weight loss can be rapid on Atkins but that it typically plateaus, slows down or stops altogether after a few days. We’ll see what happens.
Today’s food is pretty much the same as yesterday. Here’s the plan:

3 scrambled eggs and canadian bacon for breakfast […]

Just laying around waiting for Hurricane Hannah to hit NC. I am happy with the weight drop I have seen thus far. Opponents of low carb dieting would say it is all water weight, but I am not so sure. I have gotten pretty good about staying hydrated and thus not retaining a lot […]

Hey, big drop on Day 2. Don’t know if it is water or what, but I am pretty pleased. I feel fine today, which is good. My biggest fear is the low carb energy loss that so many people notice on these diets. I have experienced that myself this year on the South […]

 Weight today: 190.0
Yikes. I have crept back up to 190 pounds! I panicked briefly, but I did remember that I pigged out over Labor Day. I drank a few beers, ate way to much and did not keep up my water as I should. Still, no better time to start the Atkins I suppose. I […]
