Cheryl -- I have been cheat free since September -- for me I don't even think about eating high carb foods. I feel great, the weight is coming off (slowly, but surely), and I know if I cheat it will take me at least a week or two to just get back to where I was.
As for food -- I don't do anything fancy -- I try to have variety, but I eat great food. Lots of salads with flavorful dressings, eggs cooked in butter, tuna with mayo. Great tasting and satisfying food.
For me, all that junk just isn't worth it.

I find that I stick to plan for a week or two and loose 5 lbs and then I get bored too. I cant stomach meat or veggies..
How do you that are very successful stick to this for weeks. I guess its just that I need to remember that food is fuel….not fun or parties but I cant seem to remember that when im in a sticky situation.

Hey LaJuana - I confess too! I lost my way on Superbowl Sunday and I have not found my way back yet...but I am committed to getting back on the wagon. We are not perfect and this diet is not the easiest in terms of food variety. I was at Superbowl party and there were just too many goodies besides the spinach salad and tri-tip. It's OKAY! : )

I had the two weeks from hades, which is no excuse except I ate my way through it all and then some. I broke down and cried to my hubby, that I was too stressed out with his brother,(who is disabled with kidney disease), living with
us, who by the way eats nothing but junk food and sugary candy. Well, he moved out yesterday and my husband told me that he would go back on Atkins with me so that it would be easier for me to cook and stay on plan. I knew I loved that man for some reason! We downloaded the Fitday software and have made a commitment to log in every day. We officially started yesterday and everything is going well so far. I purged the house of junk food
and candy. I stocked up on meat and veggies. I went back to Curves today and I am looking ahead and not backwards. I am sorry if I have let anyone down. > Your Atkins Buddy and friend, > LaJauna > 261/256/145
