Evil Dr. Atkins

Ok so I really don't think he is evil... after all it isn't his fault i'm doing this right? Considering he died from a heart attack, I probably should use my brain and not follow suit. But heck it worked once and its working now. The moral of the story is I will not be on this diet for a considerable amount of time but here are a few things i've learned:

1. I LOVE carbs. There is something so satisfying about that first bite of bread or pasta. Oh how I miss them.

2. I hate eggs, always have and I aways will. Sure there are many different applications but if it is just eggs alone I almost swallow them whole just so I don't have to taste them. Normally I would cover them in ketshup but not on this diet.

3. I have found two very important grocery store items this week. Low carb ice cream bars (that are almost exactly like creamies)  and atkins diet bars that taste like snickers! This has made my life extremely more pleasant.

4. For the first week you get pretty stoked about eating things like steak, chicken, cheese, hamburgers, bacon, ham, and shrimp. But after that it gets boring. I miss potatoes, carrots, and fruit. (along with bread and pasta) But truthfully if I didn't change my diet almost completely I wouldn't have the will power to stick with this.

5. I've lost 10 pounds in ten days ;)

6. When you ask and pay for a double cheese burger at dairy queen you will only get one patty. Those people are so inconsiderate. I hate you dairy queen, guess thats why you aren't called burger queen.

7. Along with this diet I have stopped shopping considerably, I think this has to do with me not wanting to expose myself to so many cheating opportunities :(  (I still have popcorn and diet coke but shhh.... don't tell)

8. I am terrified that i'm going to lose more from my breasts than anything else and then i'll just be fat and flat chested.

9. I think this diet is making me lose more hair than one person should. and random chests pains (probably my arteries closing.)

10. I have the best support ;) thanks family and friends
