Congrats! I lost about 60 lbs. a few years ago doing Atkins. Put most of it back. Carbs are highly addictive. Maybe I’ll try to get back to my original wait after the new year. 7 LBS 12 OZ.

Carbs are highly addictive.

~~~

So true!

But it’s the damnedest thing, while they are addictive, they don’t make you feel better. At least not for me.

After 5 weeks in ketogenesis, I had my first cheat day last Saturday. Pizza and Beer. I was looking forward to it. But you know what, I had too much pizza the beer made me feel like I was a balloon. Other than tasting old favorites again, I actually didn’t get much out of it at all and actually felt uncomfortable. But wouldn’t you know it, for the next few days, I was craving those carbs. I wanted more pizza. So strange how that addiction works.

Mom used to tell me I was born at 11:07 and weighed 11-7. Er, maybe I weighed 7-11. That’s it! 7-11 at 11:07.
