Anyone else trying the Low Carb route? I'm going to follow it again, I did a while back, started losing and then well....FAMILY! I have a meat/potatoes loving hubby and son. I can stay on track during the day, at work, by taking my own lunch and/or picking up what I know I can have. It's when I get home and on the weekends. Hate making two meals (seems wasteful) but trying to get them on board with the low carb idea.....it's a struggle. Marching on though, I must! 5lbs gone........here's to another 95!!

Yes - I am doing low carb. Being T2 diabetic, it keeps my blood glucose under control without the need for medication.
I have a family of 5 and find it really easy to keep it up - just cook normally for those that like the carbs - i.e. meat/fish, vegetables, potatoes......but don't eat the potatoes! No need for cooking separate meals really.
If you go out for steaks or burgers, just don't have the bun or fries - have a salad instead. Don't make thick four sauces, but make a thin wine based pan reduction instead, etc, etc....
Don't eat cakes or biscuits/cookies - snack on salami, cheese etc...5 -
Thanks! I'll remember those tips.0
