Why I'm Breaking Up With Carbs...

My low carb journey to weight loss!
I'm addicted to fried foods, and things smothered in chili and cheese! It doesn't help that I'm from TEXAS, home of the Fried everything! I'm 5'5 and my goal is to lose about 75lbs. AND I'm getting married next October and I want to look fabulous in a wedding dress!!
I'm blogging the entire experience here. Now for most, this would be easy, buy some veggies, grill your chicken and beef for the week for lunch, dinner, etc. But here is the thing, I do NOT cook, ever! Which is probably the main reason why I'm where I'm at, I lived off of fast food, and I still do. I eat out every single day of the week, so it's a bit more challenging for me to be on this new low carb diet. Oh yeah, it's not a diet, it's a "lifestyle change". I have the help of my wonderful boyfriend who decided he'd join me on this journey. Hope you enjoy reading my blog! xoxo Gina

Friday Weigh In =/

After weighing in this morning and only losing half of a pound, (that's for two weeks) I'm thinking I've hit a plateau. After doing some research, I came across this article from Atkins.

I realized that I'm missing a couple of things, shame on me for being lazy and getting the Atkins cliff notes at the beginning, lol.


Starting Monday, I will be adding the following to my every day routine:


Walking 3 miles per day


Daily multivitamin with minerals, including potassium, magnesium and calcium, but without iron




Omega-3s in the form of fish oil or an alternative
