New to DDP
Hello all! I'm new to the group and on my second week of DDP Yoga. So far, I'm loving it! I would really like to do this daily, in addition to incorporating weights. Just for additional info, I've done some of P90X (though I didn't follow the program religiously. I used the Yoga disc more than any of the others). I'm a low…

Low Carb Bagel Recipe
With the kids back in school, I've been officially been in my fall "nesting" mode (knitting, baking, etc). I love, love, LOVE to cook and bake and low carb baking in particular is a fun experiment. Generally I use mixes of almond and coconut flours to bake my own breads. Here's a recipe for low carb bagels that I found and…

Low(er) Carb Smoothies
For those of us that watch the amount of carbs we eat on a daily basis, here are some smoothies that are lower in carbs! I almost always add spinach or kale to my smoothies as a quick and easy way to get in some more veggies. Thin Mint Shake (makes 2 large smoothies) 1/2 cup cottage cheese (or 1 cup greek yogurt) 1 scoop…

Low Carb and Movie Theaters
Hubby and I love going to the movies, but since I've been low carbing again, I have to steer clear of my usual movie theater goodies. The last time I went, I did a batch of cheddar chips (cheese on parchment, melt in microwave or oven) and stuck them in my purse. I don't always want to have to bring snacks from home…

Sushi Help - Low(er) Carb Options
Hello everyone, I have a lunch meeting tomorrow and the majority voted for sushi. Great! I LOVE sushi....except that with the use of rice, it is not exactly low carb. Do you have any suggestions for lower carb selections? I should add that I've never been able to eat sashimi (the raw seafood only - I think it is a texture…

Wannabe/Faux Runner - Tips and Encouragement Appreciated!
Hello all, I've been tentatively starting to run for about a year. That sounds odd, but let me explain. I believe I have a solid base of walking (averaging 3-5 miles at least 5 days per week). I've started the C25K program a number of times in the past, but never got beyond week one. I always felt defeated that the first…

Cinnamon "Apples" (Low Cal/Low Carb)
I use zucchini as a replacement for pasta (julienned for spaghetti type noodles, long thin strips for linguine or lasagna noodles). It has such a mild flavor of its own that you can use it as a savory or dessert base. In this recipe (I found it online), the texture is so similar to baked apple. It tastes like apple pie…

How many carbs do you take in per day?
And how did you arrive at that number? Also, do you use net carbs or total carbs as the limit you set. I've done LC eating years before, but went back to "regular" eating after my weight stabalized. (Basically, I got lazy and complacent). After approx 8-9yrs of maintaining my weight, I gained back 40lbs (out of a 150+…

Keto-Friendly Snacks
In addition to going very low carb/keto, I'm also limiting my carbs to 1450 - 1500 per day. Many of the snacks that I see are nuts, which are higher in calories. What do you use for lower calorie, keto-friendly snacks? Also, if you have any links for your favorite keto recipe sites, please share!

Fiber
I'm currently working on planning out my meals for hte next day or two and even with eating lots of spinach and zucchini, I'm not getting anywhere near the fiber count I'd like to see per day (approx 40-50g). I'm averaging around 20-25g. What foods are you eating to get a higher fiber count? My meals for today: Breakfast:…

What's for Dinner Tonight?
Fridays in my house are what we call "Fast Food Friday". I grab my teens' choice of fast food on the way home and they get to chow down on their junk for the week. Hubby and I, though, will have our own version of "junk food" tonight. Our dinner will be wasabi salmon burgers with a side of turnip "fries". What's on your…
