Ok, I have had it with Induction and not being able to stay on the wagon.

I'm officially back on CAD and loving it.

Now if I can just find that book I'd be set, meanwhile I'll need help along the way.

Thank you all for being here.

Help is available.. just ask!

I had an alright night last night. I was on my own so I made my famous salmon patties and coleslaw for dinner, followed by a banana with a little ice cream and a few chocolate candies.

Fell asleep watching the election coverage... guess it wasn't as fascinating this time

And tonight! I am going with Ken and the boys to see a midnight early showing of Spiderman! On a weeknight! I am going to try and sleep a little beforehand, but I don't know if that will work out. If not, I am going to be one tired girl tomorrow. But, then I am off starting Thursday for the next week and a half, so I will have lots of time to catch up on my sleep.

Morning all~

Hiya Lily ~ I'm in my second week of my changeover from Atkins to CAD....I'm loving it too!

Tracy....wowza, a midnight showing? Ohhh you are a brave girl ....I feel so old when I talk about not being able to stay up beyond midnight!

Another 2 pounds gone this morning. I am thrilled beyond words and can't thank you all enough for your help & support.

Hugs to you all!

Welcome back Lily!

Tracy, can I get your salmon patty recipe?

Josie!! WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!!!! WOWZA girl!!

Have a super day CADders!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ps. Tracy, I'm so jealous you are getting to see Spiderman!! I probably won't be able to go for a few weeks!

Spiderman, oh cool, we won't get it here for another month or so.

Josie congrat's on the loss.

Becki, how you doing girl?

Take care ya'll!

They are just my own recipe...veryyy simple.

1 beaten egg, add a full can of salmon, a bit of seasoning (I use a mixed one called 'Some kind of Wonderful', and a bit of oatmeal (breadcrumbs would work too) Form it into patties, I make 3, and fry in butter or whatever. They only take about 7 or 8 minutes to be fully cooked. I top with a mixture of mayo and green relish...sort of like tartar sauce.

mmm

Made it through my first full day, so I am feeling pretty good I think I am going to start a journal so that I can keep track of everything. I weighed again this morning, but my scale sucks--it doesn't seem to be all that consistent, so I either lost a pound or am the same. I think I will go buy a better one today, maybe digital so I can keep track of even 1/2 pounds. The RM meal last night was awesome, but I forgot to make any veggies so it was protein and starch (oops!!) But it was super yummy and I felt full quicker than usual. I really don't like veggies, and don't usually eat them, so any advice from y'all who aren't big veggie eaters would be greatly appreciated! Anyways, good morning and I hope everyone has a good day.

TOM started yesterday. stood on scales today, and it says, "157".

yaaaaaayyyyy!!!

Lucky! When I was an Air Force brat in Belgium (at SHAPE) in 1991-1993 it took the better part of 6 months for the base theater to get American movies! Occasionally we'd take the train across to Brussels and see a movie there, it was always amusing to read what swear words translated to in three different languages (subtitles)...at least for the 14 year old I was then.

Anyway, CAD is still going well for me, I'm just trucking along. A little frustrated because TOM is here and the weight hasn't budged at all since I left for vacation almost a month ago, but I haven't gone through TOM once yet without a little mini-whoosh and a new low at the end, so there is no reason not to hope for one now. I just need to be patient...*sigh*

hi everyone. i hope you guys havent given up on me. i was doing ok, then i went on a three day vacation to wildwood and let myself get totally out of control. i felt disugsting and am 2 lbs up today. i swear i am gonna make this work. i still havent gotten through 7 whole days without a cheat, i know if i can do that, i will be on my way and the cravings will start to go away. i need to keep track, one week no cheats!! a personal challenge for me, especially with the july 4th holiday coming up, i know i can go to a bar b que and eat bunless cheeseburgers and a salad, or i can make that my reward meal and eat and drink what i want. i know this is the easiest plan i will ever be on, just kills me that i cant stay in control long enough to see any real results. i am hanging in there and it looks like alot of you are doing great!! well, gonna wake up tomorrow with my positive attitude back and i have to get my butt moving more. hope you all are having a great day.

Hola CADettes!

I'mmmmm bbbbbbaaaaaaccccckkkkkk!

It looks like Lily is too. Maybe we come in pairs? Glad to be here.
