Say No To Carbs 2 Day Challenge...come Join Me

[renewedhope 4]

Ok, I got this idea from LapBandit, and thought it was great.

I am having a really hard time with simple carbs since the holidays. I am have MEGA SUGAR CRAVINGS!!! I have got to get things back under control.

Here's the challenge.....

For the next 2 days only Protein Shakes and Water (or Crystal Light). At least 64 ounces of water and how ever many shakes it takes.

Hopefully this will break the carb cravings that we are struggling with.

I know this won't be the best thing for everyone, but if you want to join in please do. We can chear each other on, and kick those carbs to the curb once again.!!

Count me in too. I've been craving sugar like crazy since the holidays. What kind of Protein Shakes are you using?

[renewedhope 4]

I have Unjury and Myoplex. I will probably use some of both.

After the challenge I am planning to do the 2 week induction phase of the Atkins diet. I am ready to really get this show on the road!!

I'll have to go and get some more Protein Shakes in the morning, I drank my last one this morning. I think I will buy the adkins shakes this time or the slim fast low carb ones.

[renewedhope 4]

I thought about getting the slimfast low carb shakes. I am going to use what I have first. Let me know how the Atkins and/or Slimfast taste

Welcome Dreamer and Jocelin.

LET"S GO GET EM!!!!

Sounds good to me but I need to buy some more Protein Shakes so will start one day after you guys. I must say I had a much better day today since I am back at work. My walking came to a halt yesterday and couldn't get motivated to get up early this morning so am determined to do it tomorrow morning no matter what.

Your best bet is the stop eating any refined sugar. Read your labels, anything with sugar, high fructose corn Syrup, or any other derivative of sugar need to go buh bye. If you do this I promise you that you will feel like shit for a few days as your body detoxes from the sugar you have had. But after that, you feel better and the physical cravings will be gone.

How are things going this monrning. I am drinking my first shake as I type. This is the first Protein shake that I have had since having good restriction and I must say, it is a bit more difficult to drink. I am having to slow WAY down.

Sades, I am so glad you will be joining us in the morning.

Babygirl, You are so right. That's the idea with the shakes. we are cutting out all refined sugar. After 2 days of shakes only, we should be able to better deal with the carb cravings that we have dealt with. Thanks for the advise.

OK girls, Let's MAKE IT A GREAT DAY!!!!!

First thing this morning, I drank a huge bottle of Water. I went to Walmart this morning and bought some Low Carb Slim Fast shakes (Creamy Vanilla). I got the idea to add apple pie spice to it from Joanna240. I added the spice and ice to the shake and blended it in my magic bullet. It tasted pretty good, but I think I need to add more of the spice next time. So far I'm feelin good. I'm going to exercise on my elliptical machine during my son's nap today. It feels really good to get back on track. Let do this!

Renewed, thanks for getting this started. It's just what I needed to help me get back on track and feel better. I've been a little down lately and I'm already feeling much better. Thanks!
