Cheerios being served on the plane, lol. Due to Atkins restrictions, just coffee for me.

I used to do it for years, but fell off the atkins wagon last year and slowly started gaining weight. With my hectic lifestyle it is tough but it is the only diet that works for me. After a while it really becomes more of a lifestyle than a diet. Took off 15lbs so far, hoping to drop 10 more before it levels off on me.

I need to someday get some treadmills at work for everyone. I think it would be a great addition to put in a small work out area for the staff and drivers.

Excellant idea..I sure would have used them..right now I walk in the house on really bad days, and outside for about an hour when it's nicer. Sure is helping control my blood sugar levels. Now if you build a swimming pool out back, I'll come back out...*lol*

Good Morning John,, sitting in the yard starving.. looks like Im going to make the trip to Isis by myself!. Ya know I was talking to Chris last night about where we could put some excercise equipment. hehe.. good news to hear of your "lifestyle'' change, Im trying do do the same thing. Ive heard that it takes 21 days to become acclimated to new changes, dont know if that is true but it sounds good. Happy day.:eek:

Right now we seem to be about out of room everywhere. We are out of space for staff, lol. The only place might be the back building, but that isn't 24 hours so that doesn't seem very workable. My wheels are still turning on the idea. It takes a few weeks. Your body goes into ketosis in about a week, that part is an odd transition. But after a few weeks the carb cravings die way down.

Before you get into that project....don't forget the gazebo project and the designated VAN PARKING ONLY area that we discussed with power outlets....:)

Both items are still on my list. Trust me when I say the list will be addressed one way or the other and cleaned up at some point.
