Grilled salmon and veggies. The potatoes are for my boys.

Looks delicious! Just add a little butter and blue cheese... Ok, now I'm headed to the meat market after work today!

These look so good! Thanks for posting the recipe!

Yum! I made chicken soup a few days ago, but no avocado. I need to try this next time!

My walk last weekend in an arboretum near my sons school. Nice to see snow on the mountains after so many years of drought!

Love the waterfalls @Emily3907 ! Beautiful pix of the frozen creek @auntstephie321 ! Sounds like you had to work hard for those. Brrrr

So glad I saw this thread! Was wondering what to do with the chicken breasts in the fridge. They are now in the slow cooker with a bunch of spices and leftover veggies. I'll make dumplings for my boys tonight to go in the chicken soup!

I remember the old days when I used to buy rice cakes. Ewww! I still think of raw celery and cucumber as diet food. I love them mixed in salads or other dishes, or dipped in full fat dressings, can't take them plain anymore

Hi @SoosannahK ! I used a silicone ice cube mold/tray. So easy to pop these out of the mold. I did not use an actual recipe... But put about 4 tablespoons coconut oil in a pan, and about 2 tablespoons peanut butter and melted them together. I scooped some cream cheese into the molds before pouring in the melted oil/peanut…

I've never posted a pic before, but here goes. Peanut butter, coconut oil, cream cheese fat bombs. Just 1 makes a meal for me!

Mini goals for this week: - Get carb creep under control! Will be much easier to accomplish once DH goes back to work tomorrow after his long Christmas break. - Exercise indoors, big storm on the way so walking will be hard. - Cut way back on alcohol... - Get furniture ready to consign... anybody want a grandfather clock?…

Thank you to all the mods that keep up with this ever growing crowd of Low Carbers. You all help make this a great place to hang out!

I've been snacking on beef jerky and pickles this afternoon so that is all that comes to mind at the moment. Hard boiled egg sounds really good though!

Good plan to track for a year, I wish you the best of success and an amazing year! Welcome to the group!!!

Those look amazing! I'm adding coconut butter to my grocery list. I'm definitely gonna try that recipe!

My goals - Pay off my car Sell stuff (unwanted furniture, jewelry, etc.) so I can meet above goal faster Walk several times a week Carbs 50g or less daily Regular supplement schedule Join local art league (they had me at open studio) Get serious about gardening (build raised beds, deer fence etc.)

Would love to have more LC friends as I am fairly new to this woe, anyone can add me :) I don't keep a diary though, but do post about food choices.

Wishing you a wonderful Birthday!

I felt ugh also for several days. The brain fog is just starting to lift. The last of the cookies and fudge got tossed in the trash yesterday where it belongs! Steak for dinner, eggs for breakfast. Nice to be back to normal!

Amazing results!

Thanks everyone for the nice welcomes! :)

I'll need to check out Santa Tracker next year as well. My 6 year old son would love it! I bet western US is at the end of the journey as well.

I have never heard of bi-rite either. I'll keep an eye out for it in other nor cal stores though. Would love to try it!

I avoided a binge by snacking on kerrygold butter. I was out all afternoon running errands and really wanted a Big Mac combo today, but made it home and a little butter later I was full! Less than a tablespoon of salt and fat did the trick.

Coffee, chocolate (86 percent bars), baby bell cheese.

Oh yay, mayonnaise recipes! My one and only attempt to make it was disastrous. I am motivated to try again!

I have never really felt put on the spot to defend what I eat. Friends and co-workers really do not notice and I make a point not to bring it up. I have gone out to lunch with co-workers though who have said things like "at least you don't have to worry about what you eat." They must not remember when I was 20 lbs heavier!…

I definately need to plan better! Probably been doing too much of the wrong kind of celebrating :/ So here are the great decisions that I will make today: Drink 2 nalgene bottles of H2O, minimum. Stay out of the chips. Lift light weights, do 50 squats, and at least 10 push-ups. Remember my vitamins. Try hard to keep a…

Friday after a long work week. I care just a little bit less than I did Monday morning. Whatever food is in front of me may just get eaten. And hint of lime Tostitos. Hubby brought them home... err
