I got behind a few days on my Fitday journal. What a nightmare that is! You CAN NOT forget to do it for more than one day. It is too hard to remember what you ate three or four days ago. More than that, forget it! Fitday helps keep me focused. So I am going to try to fill it in after every meal. Sometimes I used to fill it in before supper and that meant I would only eat what I already recorded in there. My appetite is way down now. My mouth has that funny, dry feeling. ...
I have been AWOL from my low carb eating plan. And this forum. Sometimes life gets in the way. I started eating a little bit of this high carb food, a little bit of this processed food, a little bit of this poison laden, otherwise known as sugar, food. Yikes! What was happening to me?

The problem with me being sick is that I don't stick to my food plan very well because I don't want to go to the ...

When I bought groceries, I could afford to buy whatever I wanted. What did I buy? Ice cream, cookies, sugary cereals, lots of soda and candy. My then husband would take us out to eat and then we'd stop at the store on the way home and we'd pile the cart up with all kinds of goodies to eat while we watched ...
I think most of us probably came to a low carb lifestyle, and LCE, because we wanted to lose weight. I've come across a few fortunate souls that discovered LCE at the beginning of our weight journy, but I suspect that most of us have tried and failed at many diets before discovering this way of life. As I read posts and talk to people in the non-virtual world, I keep hearing about how hard it is to low carb when spouses and children are constantly consuming carbs, junk food, and sugar, sugar, ...
