I like it because I am not hungry and want to gorge myself. I don't stick to really low carbs but I eat a lot less than I used to. I also eat alot healthier, I will do that for the rest of my life.

I will be 55 on October 7th, I was glad to find this thread.

Thank you for posting this, reading it helped me.

I love oatmeal but not eating it now because it's high in carbs, I love the steel cut too. Maybe later when I lose my weight I can have some. Thanks for all the suggestions, really good ones

I am in

Thank you

Hi I will try for the 5 lbs in October, not sure if I can do it but will sure give it a try.

thank you for the post on potassium.

I just made some Cauliflower rice. It actually looks like white rice. I put a small tab of butter, which has no carbs. Salt and pepper. It actually has more taste than white rice in my opinion. Next time I am going to try topping with a little parmesean.

Have you tried the meat loaf recipe where you use provolone and prochuto, I am a terrible speller. I really like this http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/low-carb-beefed-up-meat-loaf-recipe.html?_escaped_fragment_=

Thank you !!!

I am losing weight by not eating lots of carbs....thanks but potatoe has tons of carbs....the low carb diet has worked for me in the past. thanks for replying to my post.

:smile: So, awesome, you are an inspiration, I was 132 in 2001 and now 158.8. I want to get back down to 129. Thanks for the pics. I am inspired.

That is awesome. I want to be able to run, you lose weight faster....

I like to eat protein because it helps me stay full, I don't over eat and it helps me to lose weight more easily. I agree the shows don't show the healthy way to lose weight, first of all too much weight over a very small time frame can not be good for you.

no donuts

I drink skim milk

I had that they called it "hasimotos" the doc told me I would be on medication the rest of my life. I got rid of the stress in my life and I don't have to take the medication anymore, been off it for 13 years. Be sure and educate yourself on the depression this causes, the doctor does not usually address it and good luck.

I really enjoyed reading your post thank u

I think there is something u can buy that is a container with a lock u can put in the refrig, I was going to look for it for my son going to college and sharing an apt with four other boys

I make my own meals.

that's pretty harsh

I have no idea if this is true but I heard that McDonald's was having serious financial problems because they took the fries out of the happy meal and put apples, so someone tried to make us eat healthier and it didn't work....

All very interesting information. I never ear less than 1300 calories a day, if I am hungry I eat but I don't pull out the potato chip bag, I have something healthy....

My husband is from Louisiana too and loves to cook. I don't eat when I am depressed and it's been a long time since I was depressed. For a while we made eating out a hobby, we don't eat out anymore. We do have friends that love to drink, eat and party, I fall off the wagon when I go to their house. I am now drinking skinny…

great ideas guys

Yes we do have canine teeth !!!

Feel free to add me guys....
