Day 22

So this is my 3rd week and I'm retaining water... It sucks. I weighed in this morning and I'm up a few pounds. So I'm going to see what the day brings and weigh in again tomorrow. Folks on the Atkins FB pages tell me I'm retaining water and losing inches (which is true) so I'm believing them and TRYING not to get discouraged. Still stinks though!!

3rd week in, I've resisted all things GOOD but bad for the plan ;) I'm proud of myself for that. Sitting on the couch I noticed that my love handles weren't so...... handled? That my chins went down to one and a half chins instead of 3 that my ankles and feet actually looked skinnier if that was possible. But then Sunday hit and BAM I'm bloated, my ankles and face were both swollen. It could be this horrible heat too. I've been pounding back water like crazy so I'm not sure what the deal is. Perhaps it is the heat and the 100+ degree weather we'll be receiving today that is making me so puffy. SIGH.
