AMAW/CAMAW - Let's do this thang!

Oh here was a shot of lunch on Day 5! I love doing this. I warm up a homemade sausage patty, pour egg white over it and nuke. Then cook a whole egg in another ramekin. Then when they are done, I put a 1/2 slice of 2% Deli Deluxe cheese in the middle of the two egg pucks. It's a bunless egg mcmuffin using the egg pucks as the "bread".

Woohooo! How did everyone do?

So Saturday (Day 7 for me) ended up with me face down doing obscene things to a sausage on a stick and a giant pretzel with mustard. German Christmas Market here...did so well until then. I ended up this morning with the following stats:

Start:

Day 1 Weight: 152.4lbs

Waist Size: 29.5inches

End:

Day 8 Weight: 151.6lbs*

Waist Size: 29.5inches

(This is a temporary fluctuation from Saturday's poor choices. I was down to 149lbs on Friday.)

Sooooo...even after my transgression on Saturday I ended up a little lower than I began. I have to say, it's a great plan if you're someone who hates veggies. For anyone else, it's sheer torture. And not worth it. I'd much rather do Atkins in any derivation. Not that eat so much contraband, so sugar alcohol subtraction doesn't trip me up or fool me into thinking I can lose weight while eating junk with 100s of grams of sugar alcohols--I do believe that most of us can safely subtract the Fiber in veggies and things like psyllium, etc. So I will continue doing my low fat Atkins (with a lower CCL than usual) and will probably net it out. Cuz um, I rationalize. Have I mentioned that?

I wish I'd stopped to take a pic. This was brekky this morning and it was VLC (very low carb, super low cal for the Protein buck) and I was perfectly satisfied. No angst or carb/veggie envy at all. To me, this is just the "balanced approach" that works for me.

It was an egg foldover - like a fluffy egg taco that you fold in half and eat with the guts of turkey, lite cheese, and arugula. Yummy!

Edited: It was actually arugula but I clicked on the wrong button cuz I'm so used to having super greens rather than arugula. But they're pretty much the same macros.
