to diet, or not to diet, that's the question ...

ok, about 3-4 weeks ago, i started the atkins diet. and i am ACTUALLY losing weight. no, unfortunately, it wasn't my "bright idea" to try atkins. a friend of mine went on it and spoke so HIGHLY of it, that i thought that i would give it a try.

she got all scientific with it and measured and weighed everything before and during -- i'm just kinda plodding through, very unceremoniously. BUT, although she's way cooler than i am, it's WORKING!

today, i am wearing a pair of pants that use to be snug, and now, they aren't. i can actually sit down and the pants don't do a stranglehold on my thighs (the ladies might know what i'm talking about. it's the phenomenon where your pants fit ok until you sit down and the spread of the thigh takes up all the room in the pant-leg ... ).

anyway, sure, i crave cupcakes and cake (i even had a food dream where i ate a cupcake and swallowed it, then realized i was on a diet -- i can't even DREAM about food. that's upsetting to say the least).

anyway, i'm pleased with the whole low carb/no carb diet.

well, the results, at least.

see what happens when you bow to peer pressure?
