Atkins Didn't Intend for People to Keep Carbs So Low

Yesterday I read an interesting comment on another low carb blog that got me thinking. The comment was "Atkins didn't intend for people to keep carbs low forever." While I am sure some would disagree with this statement. I wonder how many low carbers out there are so afraid of carbs in any shape and form that they keep their intake at 20 or under.

I have noticed that these same people who measure even the amount of lettuce they consume will occasionally binge and pig out on junk food and non low carb treats. I have a confession to make. I never weigh my lettuce. As a matter of fact my husband and I consume an entire head of romaine between the two of us for dinner and I do not even bat an eye.

This week seems to be going by so slow! I can't wait to start my next 30 day weight loss challenge on 4/29/11. Join me and lose weight.

Tonight for dinner I will be dining on Baked Chicken with the delicious crispy skin on and asparagus cooked in olive oil and butter. So yummy.

Just a quick note to say Happy Memorial Day! I am playing hooky today and haven't been doing much.

We had a bird trying to build a nest on our front porch. It would not have been bad except for the fact that the bird decided it needed to take up all five feet of the eve on the porch to build her nest. There was mud everywhere. What a mess. So my husband made some cutouts of birds of prey and we hung them in the spot where she was building. We actually saw the bird trying to fight with and attack the paper cutouts. It was pretty funny.

Sunday started Week 3 of the Summer Weight Loss Boot Camp Challenge. I hope everyone is doing well today and having a great day spending time with friends, family or just doing nothing.

Here's to another great week of eating right and losing weight!
