Atkins Induction Day 3

I woke up feeling so good this morning.  I checked my ketones this morning and I'm definitely in ketosis, YAY!!!  That means my body is indeed burning fat for fuel right now.  yahoo!  I'm getting excited to get on the scale on Sunday.  This morning  I found a low carb pancake recipe that was amazing! 
2 1/2 TBS of vanilla whey protein powder (no sugar)
1 egg
1/2 tsp of baking powder
dash of salt
1 tsp oil (i used coconut)
2 tsp of water
Wisk the ingredients together and pour into a small nonstick skilled that's been sprayed w/ pam (i used more coconut oil)
After it cooked, I topped it w/ a pat of butter and 1 tbs of sugar free maple syrup.  It was suprisingly delicious.  One completely filled me up, which also suprised me. 
Total carbs so far today: 5  (2 from the pancake and 3 from the syrup)
Amanda is still doing pretty good.  She's definitely not losing as fast as some, but at least she's losing everyday.  She's down about 10 lbs down and 12 inches.  She's doing great!Oh I forgot I needed to adjust my ticker to what I weighed when I stopped hcg.  Boooooooo

UPDATE:So for lunch I had another turkey patty (think I might be addicted) and some nuts and some cheese.Dinner was a california omlet.  I diced up some of the roasted chicken leftover from last night and put that in my omlet along w/ some havarti and jack cheese.  I topped it w/ some fresh guacamole, sour cream and salsa.  It was devine!I have to admit I got on the scale today after I ate breakfast and had two big glasses of water.  I was getting ready  to take a shower and was just curious what the scale said.  I won't reveal just yet the number, but I can tell you this much.....so far so good.  ;) 

I went on Amazon and ordered some Atkins bars.  They'll be perfect to keep in my purse.  It always seems like when I'm out running errands that it runs into meal times and when I get hungry my self control goes out the window.  So keeping these bars on me should help eliminate the need to cheat.  PLUS I was on carl's jr's website and saw that they not only have a low carb burger (8 carbs) but they also have a low carb chicken club (7 carbs).  

My plan for this evening is to go through all my workout dvd's and pick at least one that I'm going to do a minimum of 3 times a week.   I may even get a workout in after I put the kids to bed.  =)

Carbs for the day: 17

That sounds wonderful!

How do you check your ketones? I can't wait to see how much you have lost on Sunday! I will be waiting for the blog!

You can buy them at almost all pharmacies. You just go up to the counter and ask for ketone strips, you can also buy them on amazon or ebay. You run the strip in a stream of urine (best if done when you 1st wake up) and the tip of the strip will change color. You match the color to the color code on the bottle and it'll show how many ketones you're burning. The darker the color the more fat your body is using.

The other day, while I was at work, my sister stole
my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a 25 foot drop, just so
she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has 83
views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it
with someone!

Many school cafeterias cater to health conscious individuals by offering fruits and vegetables in their daily
line-up. The more weight you use the more muscle fibers you will work
in your muscle the more muscle you will gain. Make sure your
kitchen is fully stocked with the foods you need to eat.

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles?
I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything.
However just imagine if you added some great photos or video clips to give your posts more, "pop"!
Your content is excellent but with images and videos, this blog
could undeniably be one of the best in its niche.
Great blog!
