Weight

You might remember from a while back that Master was weighing me weekly and punishing me if I gained a pound?  Well, that completely dropped off the agenda- he didn't do it any more. 
 I stopped reminding him.  And then I started gaining weight like BLOOP! BLOOP!

Even though I kept up with the exercising, inspired by the fitbit and other tools, I also kept up with the eating.  Uh huh, that happens.  Food is just so good!

So, last week Master announced that HE was going back on the Atkins diet and I decided it was a good time for me to diet also.  So we both started on Wednesday, a week ago, and so far I have lost 6 lbs.  He has lost weight too.  I know I can keep doing it!  I have only been sick one day, and that was probably due to too much cheese. 

I know it is not a balanced diet. People who can lose weight on a balanced diet probably have no trouble with eating and weight to begin with.   There is no other diet that I have tried that made me lose even so much as a pound.  And, this is the only one I've ever been able to stick to for more than a few hours (yes, hours).  But this one works, it gets rid of cravings for so much junk food, so I'm doing it.  

I don't have a goal weight exactly, but it would be great if I lost at least 20 lbs.

  1. Thats great that you found a diet that you can live with. I did p90x a few years back and the bread restrictions bothered me the most. Kudos to you for being able to give up carbs (something i just cant do)

  2. There's a reason there are so many diets out there... diets are not one size fits all... I had a friend who could only lose when she went macrobiotic., the only thing that works for me is calorie counting...
    If Atkins is your thing, then seize the protein!

  I just made what would have been a hilarious joke on social media, if only the one other person who would get it would have been around to...
