Progress Not Perfection

Lindsey Root - Monday, February 01, 2010
HAPPY FEBRUARY!!!  Wow! January flew by so quickly and now we are into the second month of the New Year.  I want to send some encouragement and hope your way to start your week and month off right.  Remember during your weight loss journey to focus on Progress not Perfection! No one is expected to be perfect! If you fall down and have a bad day, week, or month just get back up and keep on moving forward. The only thing you have to gain by quitting is weight, so don't look back at your past failures, look forward to achieve your goals and dreams and before your know it they will be standing right in front of you.  Have a great week! :-)

Atkins Induction Friendly Favorites

Lindsey Root - Wednesday, January 20, 2010
Sometimes when you are first starting your weight loss journey it helps to see what someone else ate during that time. I made a list of my Favorite Induction Friendly Food for you to see.  I still eat pretty close to this list, but every now and then I add in some more low carb variety like Dreamfields Low Carb Pasta, Low Carb Bread, Low Carb Tortillas, etc. Hope this is helpful! :-)

Sugarless deLite

Lindsey Root - Friday, January 15, 2010

Today while I was out driving and picking something up for work, I drove by a store called Sugarless deLite and saw a big sign on the window that said LOW CARB. I couldn't resist, so I walked right.  I was greeted by the owner and I told him that I was there to see all of the low carb products that they carried.  To my surprise he not only showed me everything, he let me sample everything before I bought it.  It was such a great experience!  I'm so glad that I found a physical store where I can go buy low carb products! I wish every city had one of these stores!  If I try anything that I think is amazing, I'll let you know because you can also purchase the low carb products online.  Do you have any low carb stores in your city?  If not, what is your favorite online low carb store?

Zero Carb Bagels

Lindsey Root - Wednesday, January 13, 2010

Are you wanting some variety in your low carb lifestyle? I recently bought some Zero Carb Bagels from this online store called LoCarbU and they were really good! They have a variety of flavors too. I bought the Plain, Garlic, and Cinnamon Bagels. I had forgotten how much I love bagels and cream cheese. :-) Locarbu has a large selection of low carb food, so please check it out and let me know if you try anything out.

Goodbye Metabolic Resistance, Hello Weight Loss

Lindsey Root - Thursday, January 07, 2010
Happy Low Carb Thursday! :-) I woke up this morning and weighed and was so excited to see that I have lost a total of 5 pounds in 3 days.  I gained 4 pounds over the holidays, so it's great to lose that weight and an extra pound.  I'm going to do the "Fat Fat" for it least one more day, maybe more.  I've lost 29lbs total in 7 months by eating low carb!  I'm living low carb and loving it!  Goodbye Metabolic Resistance, Hello Weight Loss! 

New Low Carb Approach: Atkins Fat Fast

Lindsey Root - Thursday, January 07, 2010
"When one approach is not working to reach the desired goal, that's not a reason to abandon the goal.  Instead, it is time to devise another approach." -Ralph Marston  

This quote is what motivated me to take that step to try a different low carb, weight loss approach.   Because I have hypothyroidism, weight loss can seem daunting at times, but it’s not hopeless.   As I’ve said many times before, this is my weight loss journey with no ending.  Once I reach my goal than I’m on a journey to maintain my weight.  Every body is different and different approaches work for different people.  Don’t lose hope and quit if your current plan is not working, take it and make it work.  

For me I know low carb works best, but I’ve noticed the closer and closer I get to my goal the tougher and tougher it gets to reaching it.  It would be easy to lose hope and quit, but why throw away all of the hard work I’ve done in the last 7 months to only find that dark, anxious, depressed, overweight person that I never want to know or see again!  Quitting is not an option!  Don't ever let it become one!  I'm ready to find the new me and I know it's going to happen this year.  :-)  It can happen for you too!  Don't ever give up your hopes, goals, and dreams.  I believe in you and now it's time for you to believe in yourself!    

Please share your story with me.  We are all in this weight loss journey together.  What keeps you motivated to reach your goal?  What changes have you had to make to stick to your healthy lifestyle?  Thanks for reading!  Please feel free to comment below.
