Feelin' better already!! Anyone else????

[airhead]

Its only 11 days on Atkins and exercise and I feel so much better! Those Levi's outa the hot dryer are fittin' much looser!!
This is my second start at Atkins. Last year I lost about 36lbs and gained back 13 of it(started goin' downhill at WDW last June). So,this years approach is very different. Much more of my calories come from veggies,fruits,chicken and seafood. I have beef once a week,somethin' wicked good like Prime rib or a nice Porterhouse with maybe a side of saute'd baby spinach and a little garlic in buttah!! Ooooohhhh!!!!
Exercise is starting to just be part of what I do everyday. No exception.
As the weather(and roads clear here in the Northeast) I'll start walking and doing more things outside. Just exercising for 11 days I feel much better!
So,how is everyone else feeling??

airhead - congrats on feeling so good! I feel the same way about the low carb eating lifestyle. I have never had so much energy in all my life! I have actually been doing two fairly difficult work outs each day (one in the early morning and then again in the evening). I know I could never have done this before.

Keep up the great work and keep your eyes on your goal, you'll make it!!!!

Airhead - you go. I m so glad that you are doing well.

I am doing much better as well. Thanks for asking. This makes day 8 for me. I got on the scale and noticed I gained 4 lbs, but I know it has to do with water, PMS, and not taking enough fiber becuase I know I could not have gained weight. Besides my clothes are already fitting better than thely were before. I am moving onward and upward -that's for sure.
I think the exercise is the key. I had a student say that once in her journal. She was really right. I exercise when I get home from work, and I feel like going another round on the treadmill about a half hour after I get off.

I know that I am going to do it this time. I do have the boards, which are a real support. I have been writing down what I eat as well, but I have not started a wish journal. I think I will soon, however, I do read the journals that are already there.

Keep up the good work, Airhead, and I know that we will all be sporting the better bods this summer - Right lisa!?
