need low carb friends!
I'm trying the low carb thing. I've never been a real fan of sugar or pasta and the such. I just feel better with mainly vegetables and proteins, so it only makes sense to do it for real. I try to keep my carbs to under 100 g and my proteins to 75-150 g. What do you all do? Also, I seem to have difficulty keeping my…

white kidney bean extract?
Anybody out there try this? It's supposed to block carbs from turning into glucose and getting stored as fat? I don't eat much carbs, but I wonder if it would help.

garlic scapes
I just picked all the garlic scapes (they are the flower bulb shoot that pops out the top of the garlic) We tried then sauted in olive oil with a splash of balsamic, but weren't that impressed. Any other ideas?

body resonse time...
seems like it takes about a week for my body to catch up to what I've done... I was really good this week and disappointed to see that the scale had not moved, so I researched my diary to see if I had done something wrong but I was so good this week. Then I checked the week before that and I was over almost every day. I…

MFP seems to work!
I have my calories set to lose 1 lb a week. I exercise ever day and eat all my exercise calories (sometimes a little over). The last three weeks I have lost 1 lb a week! It took about a month to get it going but ever since then the math seems to work out!

Uh-Oh! Here we go again!
OK, so every Friday is weigh in for me. My problem is that by Monday I've gained back the weight I work so hard to loose on during the week! So, I'm going no where and working too hard to get there! Now my boyfriend is talking about what kind of "treat meals" we'll have this weekend. He looks forward to it every week.…

Hungry!!!
Argh!!! Nothing worse than feeling fat and hungry! It's making me very irritated. I even went to the trouble of making myself a hearty baked cauliflower/broccoli bake...it should have done the trick, but I'm still starving and I only have 500 more calories left for dinner. I think I might have to squeeze in another workout…

"will work-out for booze"
I enjoy my wine in the evening so I've been working out extra to absorb the calories. Do you think this is acceptable?

I can't believe I burned off 802 calories!
I took up the challenge to burn off 3500 calories this week. So I started the day with a brisk walk, then did a 1 hour spin class. Then at the end of the day I hopped on my elliptical for 20 minutes. It wasn't as hard as I thought when you split it up like that. Now I have extra calories that I don't think I'll even get…

Frustrated, frustrated, frustrated!!!!
OK, I've been so good! Workout every day, counting calories, tonnes of veggies, minimal fats....I GAINED!!! PLUS my WEIGHT went up!!!! Is it because I need to supplement healthy fats?! Am I in starvation mode?! I don't feel hungry! I'm stuffed! Maybe I need to starve myself! Then I'll have no energy to work out!
