My doctor told me to eat 100 or fewer g of carbs a day to decrease my triglycerides. I have settled in at between 60 and 70 a day and I already feel so much better! I'm only 10 days in and have lost 5 lbs (I'm sure water is a lot of that, but that's still ok). My ankles no longer swell and I'm not hungry. In fact, not…

I'm doing low carb, but not necessarily high fat (or am I? Hadn't thought about it much) and not keto. I'm at about 60 carbs a day. My doctor put me on low carb due to my triglycerides being crazy high and told me to stay under 100 a day, but I'm ending up around 60 as my sweet spot. I'd love to have more friends doing the…

Last week my doctor told me to go on a low carb diet. I know (and he knows) that I need to lose weight, but the reason for the low carb diet is that at my annual physical, my triglycerides were through the roof. It's not exactly a surprise for me since I have been mainlining jelly beans and salt water taffy lately with…

I would love to have some good fish recipes. We need to add some to our diet. I'm a pretty accomplished home cook so don't be afraid to hit me with some technique. Also I just have to say (sing) this: le poisson le poisson hee hee hee ho ho ho (couldn't resist and had to get it out of my head).

I bake several at a time and keep them in the fridge. Squeeze the inside out of the skin (it falls right off), sprinkle with brown sugar and put some marshmallows on top. Culinary torch and it is just decadent. The toppings don't add many calories.

I love this thread.

This is really taking the long way around. For example, put the plate on there, hit tare. Now you are at zero. Add the first item and record that weight on MFP, hit tare again. Add the next item and record the weight, hit tare, etc. It takes me next to no time to add foods from my recent list and then just edit the weights.

I am ashamed of myself for clicking on this thread. Seriously, I feel dirty.

Webmd is about as believable as The Onion.

I would be starving.

My brother had Crohn's. This doesn't really answer your original question, but if they have you on steroids, please check if you need extra calcium. Steroids prevent calcium absorption and we learned that the hard way when my brother had a perforation in his bowel and then his bones started breaking in the hospital.

I would be so sad if I couldn't eat eggs. I hope you figure it out.

Someone has been reading too much Foodbabe.

Oh! I like Skinny Cow for snacks, so that probably disqualifies me.

Baked, marshmallows on top, culinary torch. Adds very few calories and tastes decadent.

I eat pretty normal things I think. I do have things like Egg Beaters but really not much Frankenfood at all.

I finished my degree at 43...

Several of them. I got one just today to review from www.curioustea.com. There are a bunch of them out there, some better for people who want more variety and some have specific types. Here is a pretty long thread that talks about some of them:…

I have a staff of editors at my company, and I have had TWO people apply, saying that they are, "detailed orientated."
