My journal of following the LCE plan.
Lost My Laptop Yesterday...........
Posted 02-04-2009 at 06:10 PM by katlupe
My computer died yesterday right after I posted my blog here. Frustration for me! I work on my computer and not having my computer is a big hardship for me right now. My husband is getting me another one and for now, I can use his in between him working on it. We have lived in the past with one computer..........but it's no picnic. 
I know that eating fat is okay following Dr. Atkins' line of reasoning. I know this. I have read that part of his book over and over. I also understand that eating fat satisfies you so you don't want to eat lots more bad stuff. I just wish my brain would re-adjust to this thinking. My Fitday food diary always points out exactly how much fat I have eaten.......so that does not help.
I accidently bought soy milk at the store instead of almond milk. I thought almond milk was better but not sure. Anyway, I thought it was almond and was so happy to see an unsweetened brand that I bought two. Now I see on here, that it is not really good for me and I shouldn't be drinking it. I have to use it though, my frugalness will not let me waste it. I do like though. I put a tsp. vanilla in. a tsp. cloves (Love cloves! My favorite) a tsp. nutmeg and 2 packets of Stevia in 1 cup of soy milk. Shake! Mmmmmmm!!!!!
It's still pretty cold here. About eight degrees this morning. I have snow banks higher than the cab on my truck. I don't know if the ground hog saw his shadow or not yesterday. My Dad says if he saw it we get 6 more weeks of winter. And if he didn't see it we get a month and a half more of winter. That's my Dad.......the joker.

not everyone worries about soy, only some do, kat. i drink soy sometimes myself. but everybody has their own things they are concerned with, ya'kno?
kind of the same with fats. most of us don't watch them very closely, but some people do aim for leaner cuts of meat, etc. individual thing.
good luck on your computer replacement. dead computers stink!!Posted 02-05-2009 at 11:19 AM by Goddess

The problem with soy, from what I've read, is that it interferes with thyroid function, unless it's fermented soy, like soy sauce. However, having soy occasionally probably won't cause problems. I avoid it just because I don't like the taste, except for the black soybeans, and we don't eat them often.
As for the fat, the only fat I avoid are most vegetable oils and transfats. Love coconut oil and olive oil, butter, and any kind of meat or poultry fat. I love to take the skin off the roasted chicken and brown it in a skillet to snack on. Yum!
Hope you work out your computer woes!Posted 02-05-2009 at 12:27 PM by QueenMama
