Confessions of a Carbohydrate Addict: Feeling a little better

Eating healthy since 3/29/04!

This blog is my struggle against carbohydrate addiction and to stay in my size 8 jeans. It is my struggle with thyroid disease, which slows my metabolism to a crawl. This blog is also about God & my struggle to move toward Christian maturity (I am far from perfect!). Finally, you'll find gratuitous cat pictures.

About Me

Name: Victoria S.

Location: San Francisco Bay Area, California, United States

I lost 65 pounds on Atkins by watching my calories and carbs. I'm a raging carbohydrate addict trying not to go face first in the donuts and stay in my size 8 jeans. After gaining 17 back I started a low-fat, moderate-carb, high-protein diet. I have two fuzzy children - a grey tabby cat (Xena) and an orange tabby cat (Abby), both spayed females. Besides weight loss and health, my other passion is religion. I'm an ex-Witch, but have been a Christian since 1996, joining the Seventh Day Baptist church in 1999. I'm politically moderate, but conservative faith-wise. I believe in headcovering (1 Cor. 11). I'm truly pro-life, which means I am also against the death penalty.

Feeling a little better

Did laundry today and got in lots of walking - over 1 1/2 hours. I walked down to the laundromat and back, then down to the train station, then from my stop into work.

I'm feeling better today - not as tired and on the edge of sickness like I have. I think taking Tuesday off really helped.

Tomorrow is the usual Friday running around after Brad gets off work - Costco for salad and Safeway for other groceries.

Saturday after church we don't have any plans except that I want to have Mochatinis at Applebee's (my payday treat) and get the Little Caesar's $5 pizza deal for dinner.

I'll be back Sunday with my weigh-in and hopefully I'll lose some weight for once. I'm getting dangerously close to 140 on a Sunday morning. :-p
