Glad to hear you are still around. Come back when you are ready. I have taken several internet breaks in my life. Most of the time for very good reason.

Congrats!!! Apparently I have lost a Wheaten Terrier. Whatever that is.

Welcome back on the LCHF Wagon! I have fallen off so many times they should just seatbelt me on, but no matter what, it still works when I come back to it. I know I need to eat this way. Great job getting back on track!

Anyone can feel free to add me. Just don't look at my stuff this week. Traveling and not LCHF. Will be back to normal next week.

Anyone can add me, just drop me a request. I am travelling in Europe this week for work and it is rare that I get to, so I am experiencing some good local European cuisine. Not LCHF at all. So, just don't peek at my diary this week. I'm willing to take a 2-3 week setback to experience some new foods and culture.

Welcome to the forum, Traci. Lots of great info here.

Congrats! That's an awesome NSV. Very cool!

Welcome!

Hmm, maybe I should get a pinterest account. Lots of people reference recipes and info from there.

I know there are several on here who do. I don't yet, but it is one thing I am looking forward to trying. There is a crockpot recipe out there I'm trying to nail down. Throw things in, let them go all day, then strain it out.

And Ms Smartypants to the rescue. Thanks!!!

I'm hearing Zoodles all over the place. Never heard of them before this board. I just googled it and now have to figure out how to make them. I love fried zucchini, but a way to make them into noodles would be great!

Those look awesome!! I love Spaghetti Squash too. We just had it two nights ago with meatsauce and fresh grated Parmesan cheese. I will definitely look into these. Hashbrowns are one of the foods I miss the most.

Congrats on the 8 pounds down! Great job! I've not used the noodles, but know several people who have. Some like them, others don't. One said they can be a bit fishy or seaweedy tasting. Give them a try to see what you think and let us know!

Welcome to the forum! Lots of great people here. Anyone can feel free to add me as well. I've been going steady since July of 2015, but have done LCHF on and off for about 10 years. Working on weight issues and joint pain.

This is spot on as well. If you don't log in the beginning, it will make it very tough to stay consistent and to succeed. Logging every piece of food helps you understand each food, what's in it, how it impacts you, and helps keep you consistent. After eating this way on and off for 10 years, I don't ever look at my daily…

I have a fitbit, but it's not really a complete fitness tracker. It just measures steps for me. But, I do enjoy using it and it helps me walk a little bit more and stay more active.

I also avoid sweeteners. Doesn't matter if they are artificial, natural, or even semi-sweet things. I find that I start looking to fruits and leaves like peppermint or spearmint to replace the sweet taste.

Congrats! Amazing how good something as small as a pound can make us feel.

Outstanding! That looks fantastic!

I have doing LCHF on and off for 10 years. I started because it was the "in" thing to do with some friends. They were all doing it. And it was working for them. I was overweight, so I started it. It worked, I got bored, went off plan, and gained the weight back. Repeat that cycle for a few times. Then I dug into it, read…

Nice picture, @auntstephie321 . Reminds me of northern Wisconsin.

Taco Salad (with any kind of meat, just need some spices), lunch meat (cheap stuff works) with some cream cheese on it will be a bit filling. A can of shredded chicken w/mayo and salt/pepper/cayenne pepper works for lunch for me most days.

It's not talked about much in the general forums, but here's a great group if you are interested. http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/394-low-carber-daily-forum-the-lcd-group

Congrats on the 1.4 lb drop!

Light or Fat Free food and prepared diet foods (Atkins, Weight Watchers, Lean Cuisine, etc branded items). Blech..

When I was eating more nuts, I would rarely go over 20 grams of carbs or 2,000 calories for the day. I would usually only eat one or two ounces, not a bucket full. For some reason, nuts stall me sometimes. I haven't noticed it as much this time around, but a few attempts ago when I was eating very clean (90% just meat and…

I LOVE 5 spice. Unfortunately, my wife doesn't. For me, the 5 spice with some Braggs Liquid Aminos is a great stir fry.

Me too! I have one way, but they don't look that good.
