Crustless spinach quiche, which I had for breakfast as well. Speaking of MIM's, I recently stumbled upon a similar recipe for a one minute microwave cheese cake. You use cream cheese, sour cream, one egg, vanilla, splenda or stevia, and a squeeze of lemon juice. You microwave it (for more like 2 minutes) then refrigerate…

I have also experienced this during induction, and I've done induction a few times as well. I tried finding an answer in the past, just doing some internet research, but I never found a very specific answer. I think that part of the reason is because glycogen is stored in the muscle with water. When you use up all that…

I've never tried a fat fast, but I've heard of it from some of my other low carb friends. I'm very interested to see how it goes for you! Does it make induction easier, or are you just doing it to get back into ketosis more quickly after taking a break from low carb, or are you trying to break a plateau?

It sounds like he feels very alone as well. Could you start by not bringing him food when he is on the computer? Instead invite him to join you and the kids for sit down meals. It might be uncomfortable at first, but you should commit to only eating at the table, together. Next, please invite your husband to bed every…

If you can avoid canned soups and sauces, you will avoid a lot of extra sugar. I have also noticed that a lot of low fat, or "lite" products have more sugar because they are trying to make it taste better- even things that aren't sweet like low fat versions of salad dressing, cream cheese, sour cream, bread and chips. I…

I'm glad you did, too! And I'm glad you introduced me to MFP! Hmmm, since I got you to do it, does that mean I'll have to when I hit my goal? Didn't think of that... lol.

Great job!!! You are looking fantastic, keep it up!

Your wedding and your dress will be great motivation, and you can totally do it! But why wait until tomorrow to start?! Start right this minute by making good choices for dinner and getting some exercise in before bed! Go for a walk or look up a workout on youtube and do it tonight! I just think it's a really bad idea to…

I stretch mine on a racquet ball because a tennis ball is too soft for me to really get a deep arch stretch. Just stand and put pressure on the ball with your arch and roll it under your foot while you are watching tv every night. I did this after I got a running injury. It really helped. I hope your foot isn't injured.…

Being outside! You could hike, bike, run. jog, rollerblade, join a parks and rec soccer or baseball team, rock climb, ski, play tag with you kids... It's no longer cardio, it's just having a great day doing something fun and enjoying the view, time with friends or family, the river, the wildlife. I personally enjoy running…

I know exactly how you feel! I felt this way just last night at the gym when I walked by guy who had his treadmill set at 7.6 mph and he ran at that for an hour like it was no problem. It made me feel like, "Why do I even run, I will be slow forever!" But the truth is that when I started running 6 months ago I was running…

This recipe for Cauliflower Au Gratin is so good, I have made it many times. It's easier to post the link because you make a homemade alfredo sauce for it, which is a separate recipe on the food blog site.. My husband isn't eating low carb with me, but he requests this for dinner regularly, it is that good. I took a batch…

Truly, the less sugar and junk you eat the less you crave it. It's nice to think you can have everything in moderation if it fits onto your daily calorie goal, but some of us can't eat that kind of stuff in moderation, will power goes out the window. Just go cold turkey and it will be easier to say no after a week or so.…

Wow! Great job! That teal and brown dress is super cute, btw, Love those colors.

You can make a peanut butter chocolate bar easily with 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter (like Adams brand, must have no sugar or anything else added) 2 packets splenda or 15 drops stevia or half of both 1 teaspoon heavy whipping cream 1/2 teaspoon…

Yes! Even though I'm am losing weight, and you would think I would know what to say by now from the good things people have said to me, I still feel awkward commenting on other peoples weight loss. I just don't want to say the wrong thing, and it seems easy to do. You want to say more than "good job", but you don't want to…

One word.... Alacorn!

Are you doing induction? My older Atkins book simplifies example meals pretty well: Breakfast is scrambled eggs with whatever meat, cheese, and bit of veggies you want. Lunch is a big chef salad with any full fat dressing that has no sugar, with some grilled chicken or a scoop of tuna salad. Dinner is a portion of meat or…

Way to go! Your success is so inspiring. I love what you wrote, your honesty and positive attitude have really touched me. You are definitely encouraging anyone who reads your story, me included!
