    Any one else out there addicted to all the bad carbs? (Yes, I believe there are actually good carbs, don't shoot me, lol.) Need new friends to help motivate me with my second try at MFP. I'm a a busy lady with lots of distractions and an emotional eater to boot. Send me a friend request if you'd like!

      OMG...total carboholic who can no longer eat many carbs due to PCOS. I have actually found certain alternatives that are extremely close to the real thing... like mashed cauliflower instead of mashed potatoes - and NoOodles, these awesome noodles made of yams! Oh, and the brand Healthy Life sells bread that's only 5 net carbs... not too shabby :)

      I'm a carbaholic too!! lol i suggest if you plan to have pasta for dinner, cut down on the carb at breakfast, for example instead of cereal have a small fruit and hard boiled egg. Anyway i've just started the road map method of diet today, i hope it works ;)

      Oh, dear love carbs and have cut back a lot by giving up wheat after reading the book "Wheat Belly".
      I started out with 91lbs to loose, and have lost 39. I hit a plateau and stood at a 37 lb loss forever it seemed,
      but recently added a bit more exercise and finally broke the plateau, now to get on with it! Weighing in at 198 as I
      begin here at myfitness. My goal is 145.
      JenHanke, thanks for the tips on some low carb items to try. The cauliflower I know I will like, but need to look
      for the other items. Do you shop at a certain grocery or health food store?
      So glad to find this place so I can track my calories and calorie burn...Good luck everyone!
