Well I've only lost one pound this week. Which I guess is better than gaining any. It hasn't been a good Atkins week - as I can out of Morning Start breakfast bars and couldn't find anywhere that sold them around my college. But yesterday my parents went out and got like $50 worth of Atkins friendly stuff for me at the local health food store: cereal, 2 boxes of breakfast bars, cookies, and raspberry favoring. Yummy stuff. So I should be back on the weight loss track this coming week. I want to lose at least another 10 lbs, maybe 20 if possible. I've lost a total of 13 but I'm still in the same size clothes though I do feel a lot better which is good! So I shall have to be good ;)

Wooo hooo lost about 4 lbs this week bringing my total up to 12 lbs in less than a month. Still not too close to my goal weight so I'm try to keep to about 30 net carbs a day til I'm ready to add more.

Hmmm I've been slacking on blogger here about what I eat but I have been keeping it down on paper - its easier that way now, so maybe I shall only use this for updates about weight and such.

Proud of myself - have done the 3 mile walk 3 times this week and have been pretty good on Atkins. Going to weigh myself on Saturday - wish me luck!

Well I weighed myself today, last time I weighed myself was last Saturday. I don't think I have lost any weight this week and haven't gained any either, but I haven't been able to exercise (because my dvd player wasn't hooked up) and its been hard to eat low carb stuff in the dining hall. Plus Dominos giving out free pizza on Weds didn't help much either!
