  • I am in the same boat with everyone. 15 lbs away. I was doing 20 net carbs. but have just falling of the wagon so bad. I live alone now so it is so depressing to cook for just one. So lately all I have been doing is buying frozen dinner or stuff for sandwiches' I would like to know also what a fat bomb tea is as well.…
  • Hey you guy's it's been a while! I am scared and excited at the same time, I am 10 lbs. from goal, and it seems I am jumping backing and forth with the same 3 lbs. I feel like I am sabotaging myself so I don't get there. Does anyone ever feel like this happens to them when they set a goal. How do you break it?
  • I did the " I breath, I'm hungry" one. I think I figured out anyone. I only eat 1000 cal. normally and the fast was giving me 1200. So I think that's why I was gaining. I have stalled and can not break it. I have 10 lbs to go and I am getting frustrated. any idea's ?
  • Being naked all day if I want, sleeping naked! eating what and when I want. toilet seat is always down. Not having to check in when I am out.

I am not sure how your family grew up but as a big Irish Family straight off the boat food was our life line and if you know anything about the Irish Potato's are our best friend, along with a lot of night shade veggies.
