Goals work for me. I have an event this summer I want to be in better physical shape for so I have the stamina to enjoy it and do it better. My motivation is really high right now. I think mentally you have to “be there” for it to work. At least that’s me.

Thanks. The Glucose makes me even happier!

Ha! They need to add a laughing icon. I’ve been thinking of egg salad all day! 😂

I remember you! I’ll send you both a request later when I’m on my laptop. Happy Easter!

Thanks! I’ll check them out!

Haha! We need a (laughing face) icon besides just the thumbs up. Those chia seeds get everywhere! I find them hours later in my teeth! Ack!

Those look like one carb buns!

Baked them yesterday and really turned out well! Tonight I sliced leftover pork loin and sautéed it with Worcestershire, minced garlic and Montreal steak seasoning - baked just to melt the pepper jack cheese. 😋

What time is your last coffee? I used to drink coffee all day but on low carb I can’t have it past 2-3 or I’m up all hours. Have you tried relaxing teas at night? Turning off lights when the sun goes down and keeping the house pretty dark at night? No screens after a certain hour? I’ve done all these with some success.…

My husband is a nurse. He got the wrong ones. Lol.

Had these for dinner (one of them) - they do use a tiny bit of flour, but they are only 2.3 carbs each (I figured the recipe for nine rather than 12, and didn’t use any egg yolks). I was amazed at the breadiness of them. I think I found my new sandwich bread! I think the key is going to be moderation and filling them with…

The finished product.

The recipe said it made 12, but I found nine to be the actual number. So that’s how I entered it, and how I plan to make it in the future. Full recipe at link (only I only used egg whites, no yokes, as advised to get rid of the eggy flavor), but entered as nine servings.

http://www.findingradiance.com/2011/02/24/magic-rolls-eades-low-carb-comfort-foods/ Made these rolls thanks to a friend for sharing the recipe - having them tonight with turkey, cheese and lots of mayo. They do use some wheat so not for everyone, but they fit in my macros - I’ll screen shot the nutritional facts below.

Yep. I don’t gain on carbs above my start weight. Which is weird. But I do gain back all my losses and then no matter what I eat I stay there. I mean I ate JUNK the past few months and as much as I wanted and didn’t gain an ounce. Only problem is I need to lose 100 pounds!

I think it depends on your body and metabolism. I was 80-100 carbs for six months and didn’t lose a pound. I finally gave up, I only lose on 20-30 carbs but I have thyroid issues and a really sluggish metabolism. You have to find what works for you.

Exactly. Not too mention prohibitily expensive. No thanks! I have better things to spend money on.

Same. I’m literally eating about 600-700 calories a day (I don’t count them but MFP will and I have to cheat the system to get my diary to log if under 1000!) I am not starving and I eat twice a day and never have tummy growls. I just am very picky on what I eat! Half the time I can’t even finish my lunch or dinner. When I…

I only thinking of the ability to find this group on MFP. Maybe I’m confusing it with Facebook. I knew what I was looking for because someone pointed me to this group, isnit easily findable by the average joe looking on MFP? Other than that I agree why go looking for a fight - even tho I agree low carb has received much…

I have a those things! I’ll defrost my chicken and try it, thanks!

Awesome! Looks great, I’ll try it.

A foodie is a nice way to put it. Lol. I’m so obsessed! Thanks for the welcome. I’m back on hard.

That looks delicious! Thanks!

Ps I’m looking for open diary friends so I can see what you’re eating and get inspired.

I also love the crock pot.

Making a Spinach Egg Bake with what I think is the perfect cheese for it - queso fresco! I’ll post a pic if I can. Basically sautéed onions in butter, lots of spinach, lots of sprigs of thyme, eggs, a little milk, and the cheese - baked.

I’m right there with you. You can add me. Anyone can. I lost my old info and had to sign up new! Ack. I need to lose 100 pounds. Day two.

Tonight I had philly cheese steak in a bowl with pepper jack cheese.
