Thinner
It's been one month and one week since my doctor put me on the no/low carb diet. Since then I've lost 16 pounds. (166 lbs-16 lbs= 150lbs) That's 3.2per week which is right about what he said I should be loosing. 2lbs a week or so. So HOPEFULLY this time next month I'll be what he said I should be: 140 lbs. These are some facts I think you should know:1. I'm not starving, finding it hard to eat, or consuming small amounts of food.
2. I am still able to drink wine and I allow myself some of the things that Dr. Atkins suggests you not eat: corn, beans, and the rest of the veggies in the veggie family
3. I did cheat at Holly's on Friday and had 4 large scoops of chocolate ice cream and I had a nibble of some Cosi bread this weekend. Oh and I had a table spoon of hashbrowns.
4. I love this "way of life" and I don't think it's nearly as hard as it was when I was doing the Atkins diet.
5. I've become an iced tea addict
6. I like the fact that I can sit and eat a whole chicken with a wedge of brie, and aside from the mean constipation, MY BODY CAN TAKE IT!
7. I don't fit in to my clothes anymore. =)
8. I weigh less then Eric which is just RARE
9. The things that are important to me: brie, wine, and Eric are still edible.
10. I got an A- on my history test
So even though this diet is freaking Liz out, and I've been spending lots of money at Boston Market, I'm happy & thin. I'm thinking in November I'm going to be the hottest ever and forced to wear a bikini, even in the dead of winter, just to show the world how small my ass has gotten.
When I sit on the pot now my thighs don't flop over the side of the seat. When I bend over naked to dry my hair I can see between my legs. When I sit down in the car -- my belly button ring doesn't get lost in the black hole. IT'S GREAT! I should have done before and after pictures....

Congrats -- this calls for a new profile pic! (not that I don't like the old one, but new is always good:)
