Thoughts on pasta zero?
I made some chicken fettuccini for dinner with pasta zero noodles. I just learned of these recently, but was hesitant to try them. It turned out pretty good, a bit of an adjustment to the texture, but I was happy overall. Just curious what you guys think of them?

Not a New Years resolution...
I fell off the low carb wagon between thanksgiving and New Years and I gained 8 of the 27lbs back. I started back up Saturday and I already feel tons better. But I've also decided to cut back the alcohol to just a drink or two on a Saturday night...and...this is the hardest...no more smoking. Got the patch and slapped it…

I feel icky
3 days shy of 10 weeks around 20 carbs per day. All the baking and preparations for the holiday lead to my excuses for an epic fail.

How much does alcohol screw me up?
I like to have whiskey a few nights a week. I just drink it straight up, sometimes with a diet back. I know there are no carbs, but does the alcohol screw with fat burning? I don't want to stall my weight loss, but I do like my whiskey! Just curious how bad this is. I've been around 20 carbs for the last 14 days, just…

How much did you lose the first month?
I am just barely in my third week (day 17) of low carbing, trying to stay as low as possible usually between 15-25 per day. I have lost 11 pounds so far, and 2.5 inches around my belly. I have a long way to go, just wondering how much people have lost in the first month?

First 2 weeks almost in the books
I still have a long way to go, but I've had 25 carbs or less except on day I hit 30, tomorrow is my 2 week mark. I feel great, have learned some new recipes that are delicious and I know this something I can actually stick to! I can't believe I shunned this way of eating for so many years. I thought I could never give up…
