All over again

I re-start my Atkins after 3 wks' break and is happy to say that I had not gain any weight in the 3 wkss. I had lost 1kg this week since re-start. This time round, I ammoe familiar and prepared. I zip through the 1st wk with ease and had not suffered any craving. It is much easier than th very 1st wk I had in Oct.

I am abit way off schedule as I aimed to lost a total of 10 - 12 kgs by Jan 2008. I had only lose 5kgs in the 1st round and now minus another 1 kg, that had make me fall short of another 4 - 6 kgs. Considering having only aout 4 wks in Dec and at this rate, I may well be able to lose about Kgs if I am wrking hard on it. That will put my target at 62kg by end Dec.

Wish me luck.

Thanksgiving

It is really a day, month, year to count our blessing and thank our creator. We had always take things for granted. I am so thankful that my family, friends and I are safe. So much tragedy going on and the current terrorist situation in Mumbai.

My prayers of comfort to those who have their love one in Mumbai. Those who are anxious, stranded in Bangkok that is not able to make it home for thanksgiving.

Start again

 

I was complaining that my weight goes down too slow when I was on Atkins. 3kgs in 1 month comparing with some than loses more than that.  I have nothing to complaint now.  I wasn’t feeling well the 1^st 2 wks of Nov and had thus stop my Atkins for that period. I know I shouldn’t stop but I do not want to make it too difficult for myself. I am going to be on this way of eating for a long time and there is no way to make it seem so bad that I wouldn’t want to do it next time.  

 

I was eating simple bland food for the week that I have fever coming and going. Than 2^nd week, I am eating normal but still try not to eat too much rice. I had some desserts and pretty happy with the baguette that I was craving for. I had mee siam on 1 of the wkend and Laksa on another.  This is simply too sinful to think about.  All the while still watching the scale.  I had rest enough and ate enough of carbs. I embark on my diet again yesterday. It is a bit easier than when I first started on this diet. I had to make sure I stay on this till CNY.  I am pleasantly surprised that I had not gain any weight during these 3 wks in Nov. Perhaps that is the benefit of losing it slow, gaining it slow or nothing.
