iN THIS WEEK woman world mag. there is new diet the French 's Adkins diet. claim you can lose 1 3 lbs a week. you primary just eat lean meat,egg whites greek fat free yogurt, faat free cottage heese on phase one called the attack phase and the next day you add light veggies, you alternate betsween the two phase. everyother day. Too much protein for me.

I am going thru something I don't understand. My blood sugar is running a lot lower than it ever has no matter what i eat. I called the doctor and the nurse said when I have a low drink orange juice. I think I really. need to see the doctor. about this. my fasting blood sugar this morning was 66 and has been like that for 4 or 5 days.. And that is very unseable for me. way unseally . We have plenty of orange juice on hand And I have quit taken my insulin, Will see if I can go see the doctor monday morning, and take my record with me.

That sounds good. What is the carb count for mushroom soup?

tammietifanie

For 1/2 Cup it's about 9 carbs and 2 grams fiber

saverys_gal

Sounds like something I would totally eat. :happy:

Beware the sodium in the canned soup though-they can be crazy sky high!!

That is a bit high for me...although I love it on chicken!!

saverys_gal

Ok so what are some other fave low carb chicken recipes ladies?? Mine is salsa chicken!!

Sprinkle chicken breast liberally with fresh cilantro and a bit of salt and pepper. If you like it spicy, add in some cumin and cayenne! Top with either fresh or canned salsa and maybe a spoonful of corn if you're feeling a bit naughty!! Wrap in reynolds wrap, cook on 350 for 25-45 minutes (depending on size of breast) and when it comes out top with some cheese and serve with whatever low carb items you like: sour cream, gauc, more salsa, low carb wrap, maybe some soy beans or black beans!

CALIECAT

Savery your chicken recipe sounds yummy.

saverys_gal

Thanks Marie! It's one of my fave ways to eat chicken! And it's just so yummy with fresh homemade salsa and some hot peppers picked out of the garden!!

tammietifanie
