Low Carb Diet Challenge ?

Why is it that when you make a public proclamation (you know like on the internet, in the newspaper, public forum, etc) it seems often you are just setting yourself up for failure?? Maybe none of you have that problem but I sure do!! Open mouth - insert foot or maybe "pie" is the better word here !

I publicly recommitted to my low carb diet about 2 weeks ago since this is the plan that allowed me to quickly lose 35lbs last year. Then the "evil - anti low carb monster" came by our office in the form of a coconut pie.... UGH!! I obviously was not fully "in ketosis" yet therefore my resolve was not up to the test.... That unforunate event took me down another ugly sugar chase for a while - UNTIL a few days ago when my blogger buddy-Jimmy Moore of Livin La Vida Low Carb started "bragging" about his 18 1/2lb loss in just one week on low carb .... Jimmy, just kidding - you weren't really bragging - just telling the facts - right?

Thankfully - Jimmy got me motivated for a low carb challenge so here goes ! Two days almost down - Lord willing, I will get the ketosis dominoes stacked in the next couple days. I also talked with another low carb fan today - Ellen lost 11 lbs on low carb last week !! WTG - Ellen, Jimmy and all you successful low carb followers !! Thanks for the "little push" !
