For 3 plus weeks, i had been good when it comes to eating and working out, and i was enjoying it. All that kinda changed yesterday.I woke up not in my best of moods, my partner said somehing and i took it personally and my baby had a stuffed up nose and was not liking it. I also did not feel like going to the Y. So i decided to punish myself,,,,,i toasted a bagel,,,,two hrs later i toasted another bagel. That was it though,,,,,coz i did n ot eat again till the evening where i first had a grapefruit, then some pork with broccolli.

I feel like a failure and that is not so good.Though all i have had today is coffee and chicken salad,,,,,,am scared that i might cheat again,,,,,,,and it feels really horrible coz am all dreesed up to go to the Y, i just don’t think am gonna go,,,,,and am so not liking myself at the moment

I just hope you all are doing well and being strong

what atkins-friendly "bars" do you recommend…

Friday, March 20th, 2009

Ok, I know there are a *TON* of products out there, and I’m not talking about the Atkins Endulge bars.

Back when I skated my coach would recommend certain "energy/protein" bars that were low in "net" carbs. I think some of them were Promax, or something.

I’m not planning on eating them anytime soon, but I will be going on a trip to visit a friend in April and I will need to bring some of these along with me. She is totally broke, and I don’t know how extensive her "kitchen" is for cooking. I want to bring along some bars in case I’m stuck in a bind and don’t have anything to make, or we don’t go out to eat.

Anyway, what kind of bars do you recommend that are low in carbs, and make you feel "full" after eating them.

I’m asking so far in advance, in case I need to order anything online. Thank you!

It’s TUESDAY! What are you eating today?

Friday, March 20th, 2009

Last night I had cravings for bread but ate berries, cream and nuts AND quite a bit of cheese too, but I’m still down about a pound today I’m not dieting but I guess since the last 10 pounds I gained are due to recent severe high carb binging they will probably come off if I don’t go back to the high carbs. I’m sure both me and my baby will benefit from this as being too overweight is not much better for a baby than being underweight. And I will not use my pregnancy to excuse my pigging out on sugar and high carbs. Cream and butter yes but not high carbs. Not hungry this morning, had my usual water with ACV, pinch of epsom salt and herbal pill for low iron. Seeing my OB on Thursday and will then know if the pills are helping up my iron levels. (Sorry for long post, using this thread to keep accountable for eating wisely and sanely if that’s OK).

Brunch: probably egg yolks, CO, yogurth/creme fraîche with berries and nuts

Dinner: whole chicken baked in a claypot (don’t know the English name for it) with green beans, sauce made from the chicken juices and cream, butter and spices. Raw veggie salad.

Evening: don’t know yet. Maybe I’ll bake something without sugar/grains? Longing for something with a bit of "bready" feeling to it.

What makes this easier….
