Default Out of the Shadows

I'm coming out of the shadows today because I deserve a pat on the back.

I've been low-carb since October 1, and have lost 8.5 pounds so far. Today
was my first real test. The management of the building where I work held
an ice cream social for all the tenants. Ice cream. Free. Delivered. I
even had three co-workers stop by and offer to pick up a couple of scoops
for me if I was too busy to break away and get it myself. I said no,
continued to say no and stayed on my eating plan for the day.

Yippee!

Hang in there Meowzer and WAY TO GO! I've been doing this six weeks now and
am down over 20lbs and 4 sizes in my pants.

{this is Lori Patting your back}
that's great. remember this feeling of control and power you have next time
you are presented with foods that you know are not good for you, esp. right
now while you have just started out so strong.
I work in a pediatric hospital and I am confronted with what I consider
unhealthy crap all the time. but I just say no, bring my own treats, offer
them to others if they are interested and participate in the feasting on my
terms.
keep up the good fight!

Good for you on both counts! Don't you feel better knowing that
you resisted temptation?!

Pat on the back
Good for you! ... staying on plan is worth so much more than those
few moments of pleasure of the ice cream imo.
Keep up the good work.. 8.5lbs lost is a great start.

My thanks to everyone who has offered their support and congratulations.

I've enjoyed reading through this newsgroup as the participants appear to be
genuinly interested in sharing knowledge and supporting each other. I've
posted on other groups where it felt as if there were people lurking;
waiting for an error in grammar or a newbie question just so they could
impress themselves with their own flaming replies.
