Atkins 40 Week 3 Update and Preparing for Vacation Travel with Atkins Meal Replacement Bars...

This post is sponsored by FitFluential on behalf of Atkins.
Hey guys I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. We were in the gorgeous Panama City Beach for a huge football tournament with my baby boy.


Anyways I wanted to give you guys an update on my 3rd week on Atkins 40.


For week 3 I lost 3 more lbs. YAY! That makes 10lbs in 3 weeks. I like how slow but steady this weightloss is going. I feel I could keep this way of eating up and not gain any of it back. And most of all I feel great... (sorry its blurry)


I did have one day on vacation that I didn't track carbs, but it didn't hurt me any. Also I knew that I wouldn't be able to stick to the menu plan given to me because of not being able to cook at home. So I used the My Fitness Pal app and the Atkins carb counter and stuck to the plan as much as I could. Like I said I only went over on one day and it was totally worth it. :)
One of the great things about the Atkins program is that they make on the go meals, bars, and shakes for those times when you don't want to think about what you want to eat. I knew that being on the road for 3 hours with 3 kids we would be making a couple stops at gas stations, so I didn't want to be tempted with gas station snacks. So I brought along a couple Atkins meal replacement bars.


These bars are delicious and they are the perfect meal replacement bar for when 'you are on the go. They have a ton of delicious flavors...


One of my favorite bars is the new Atkins Blueberry Greek Yogurt Bar. I have mentioned before that one of my favorite breakfast/snacks is greek yogurt with granola and fruit, so now I can have it in an on the go bar form...


Atkins also has smaller bars for snack time called Atkins Daybreak bars which also comes in some yummy flavors...


Look how good the chocolate peanut butter pretzel bars looks...


I am super excited about this week heading into week 4 and closing out a whole month following the Atkins 40 plan. My goal was to lose 10lbs the first month and knowing that I have done that with a week left makes me so excited for week 4.
Now that football is over for us and the holidays are here, I will be sitting down soon and get my training calendar and race calendar for 2015 wrote out. I will be racing a lot this coming up year. Until then I will be enjoying the holidays with my family and tracking my meals as I indulge in lots of healthy holiday Atkins 40 approved treats. Stay tuned....
