Hi!
I am starting Atkins today! I am wondering if I can eat salad dressings like caesar and ranch? I am about to go grocery shopping for the stuff. I am really excited and ready to loose some weight!!
Love,
Lexy

I'm doing much better Simus, thanks. I guess it was just a bout of PMS blues. Sounds like a song. Ha Ha. Maybe you and Mystic can sing it for me. Mrs. C

Trucker, can you explain a little bit of the diet to me. I have been on Atkins since January but I am looking to try something different. I have heard that South beach is kind of similar. Can you still have full fat salad dressing. I cant live without that? Everything else I can do without. I have already given up sugar completely, except for fruit. Congrats on your weight loss and I have no doubt that you can do this! Maybe we can do it together for support. I know I can use it sometimes. Mrs. C

Lexy, I eat italian. I think anything with less than 2 carbs per serving is okay. Lots of companies now have low carb salad dressing. I have tried the ranch and it is very good. No difference that I could tell from regular ranch. Even my daughters didn't notice. A little tip for you, don't buy low carb cereal or bread. YUCKY with capital letters! Also get yourself some sugar free candy. Russell Stovers makes really good ones. It got me through some tough times in the beginning. Good luck, Mrs. C

the bread does taste pretty bad, but if you toast it it is much better. put a little butter or olive oil on both sides and stick it in the toaster oven.

Mrs. C,
Can I have some of the candies you mentioned during the "induction phase". I am thinking I will lose some on Low Carb then switch back the weight watchers when I get to a weight I would like to maintain. Does this sound like a OK idea? When do you start to see the weight drop off, man I am ready!

In reply to Mrs. C, and the low carbers, posted by sexylexy on July 8, 2004, at 22:39:41
Yes, I did have the candy during induction. Just not alot. I would take a bite or two during the day when I had sugar cravings. I did not see any results until the two weeks were up. I weighed myself every day and didn't lose a pound. Then it just happened. Seven pounds were gone in 2 weeks! You'll do fine but it's hard during the first week. You may have sugar withdrawal. I will be here if you need me. Just a click away. Mrs. C

For everyone out there scratching their heads right now... I had told Lexy that I could relate to the little fish, Dorey, in Finding Nemo. (The one with short-term memory loss.) And that I, like Dorey, could also speak whale. (Can't explain - you have to see the movie to understand...)

Mystic,
I don't understand therapy, but I do understand reliving past hurts and I feel for you. But it sounds like you need to face your past sooner or later... Be strong and courageous, and face it "sooner" rather than "later" so you can go on with your life. That reminds me of what God told Joshua when he took Moses' place of leadership.
Joshua 1:5-6 "As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you. Be strong and of good courage."
That's a pretty good promise! "As I was with Moses, so I will be with Mystic. I will not leave her nor forsake her." So pull together your strength and courage, and meet the challenge head-on. Let us know how you are doing tomorrow.
Your friend,
Simus

> SimusHi Simus,
I have been on vacation from work and I have been trying to catch up around the house and running ragged with the kids.I have been feeling a little anxious again like on the verge of a panic attack so I have been forced to take a xanax the past few nights and my heart has been doing those crazy beats again which really stinks because they went away after I started taking the lexapro. I am praying that the Lex is not starting to poop out on me and it's just because I am under a little bit of stress lately ie my son went away to football camp on tues and won't be back until Saturday so I was nervous about that being his first time away from home and my dad has to go to the hospital for angioplasty because he has a blockage and I know thats a kinda easy procedure but he has a kidney transplant and the dye they inject you with can kill the kidney.
He had it done about 6 months ago and it worked out fine but he feels how lucky is he going to get again - so that is weighing on my mind.
I just hope that it is all the stress that is making me feel this way and it's not my meds pooping out on me. we will see.
How are you doing? Believe me I think about you guys everyday and really miss talking to you all but I always try to check the post at night.
hope all is well,
anxious babe
