vixensghost said:I can't recall where I heard this phrase, but I loved it: " Don't allow a dietary fender bender turn into a 200-car Autobahn pileup." I think we all can relate to this phrase while learning to "drive" to a healthier lifestyle.
That is a great quote

Hello, I'm still alive 
Eating healthy has been such a freakin battle for me.
I have put on some weight and it is coming on rather easily i'll tell you.
I may get some blood work done to see if i'm hypothyroid because i'm having some syptoms of that and if not than who knows.
Todays foods looked like this: breakf: 2 sm.slice bacon, 2 eggs, coffee lunch: grilled chkn bacon ranch salad, diet soda *mcdonalds* dinner: med. baked potato w/ taco seasoned gr. beef (about 1/2 c. maybe tad more) cheese, 1 tbs sour cream, tomatoes) water.... and i just had a cup of coffee.
I like low carb because I feel better on it (ie: my gut is less bloated, headaches subside and hunger decreases) but it is tough to stick to as it is restrictive.

Welcome back hun
Low carb can be great, however I don't think Atkins is great.
Have you got a carb up/re-feed planned?
It needs this as low carbs do slow the thyroid.
You may want to look at
Mario DePasqueli (sp) the Anabolic diet
Rob Fagin Natural Hormonal Enhancement
Lyle MacDonald The Ultimate Diet 2.O or the Ketogenic diet

Ahhhhhhhh the prodigal daughter returns! Glad to see you back.
May I ask your age? I don't think I saw that.
You mention that you feel better on low carb, less bloat, etc but I am looking at what you ate and that whole McDonald's Taco thing would send me straight to the couch with pain no doubt. Why did you not opt for a salad with chicken or some such? I mean, McDonald's salads blow chunks (as far as epicure is concerned) but they will not sit so heavily in your stomach as the meal that you consumed.
Eating low carb should not be a chore. I mean, I eat like that most oft but if I know I am going to hit the gym for a heavy leg workout or hour long session in the pool, I have no issue carbing up with some pasta (not main portion of meal, but I rarely eat any) and/or bread etc... just try to eat cleaner, less processed. When you hit the fast food chains goodness only knows what was done to that food, all the chemicals, additives.
