Day 22 on Atkins 20

Today being weigh in this my second post of the day so I'll keep it brief. The good news is that despite my no loss week I am as motivated as ever. I put my before picture next to my week 3 picture and although the changes are subtle, I see them and I am encouraged. I have decided to move to phase 2 of Atkins for my ongoing weight loss. Basically this means a few more carbs allowed, from 20 up to 25 on average while keeping the calories in the same range. We'll see how that works.

Day 22 meals:

Breakfast - 2 eggs scrambled, 2 pieces of bacon

Lunch - 2 bratwurst, 1 cup cucumber salad w/sour cream and apple cider vinegar

Dinner - 10 oz ground beef with 1 cup mushrooms, 2 TBS low carb ketchup, 12 stalks of asparagus with a pat of butter

Snacks - AM - Atkins cookies and cream shake, PM - Atkins Dark chocolate shake

Total counts for day 22, 18.3g Carbs, 1878 Calories, 138g fat, 129g protein

I won't be starting my new phase until tomorrow. I bought a mountain bike today so I'll be starting my biking tomorrow as well. I plan on biking for 30 minutes at first and then slowly building up both my minutes and speed gradually.
