Back in Focus

Posted 08-23-2008 at 11:23 AM by QueenMama

So, I've had 2 out of town events that caused me to go way, way off my plan. Funny thing, though. I gained maybe 3 lbs. That's all. I can easily gain 3 lbs even staying on plan, so this is really weird for me.

We had our annual Texas Housing meeting this past week. We stayed at the Hilton. Boy, it was not cheap! I never can figure out why the expensive hotels charge for everything (internet access would have been $10.95 a day; we stay at a cheap little motel and get free access, paying...

Crappy Day

Posted 08-22-2008 at 08:22 AM by ConnieD53

I had such a crappy day yesterday. On the flip side, today should be better because I think I got all the obnoxious inmates seen yesterday. I came home and wanted to cry. In fact, I did a little bit. But thankfully I did NOT get into the carbs.

Oh, and whoever (on another board) said those Flax Crackers were tasty LIED! Sure, maybe the flavor might be good but it's like putting flavored seeds in your mouth. I don't know why the company didn't grind the seeds to make the crackers....

Gumbo is YUMM-O!

Posted 08-21-2008 at 11:16 PM by lcfan

My friend made me the most delish low carb gumbo! I added a bit of chicken to it to fill it up and I am also going to give it to DH for dinner tonight. This new woe is really fun and I am soooo happy that my cravings are gone....for now at least. I did my hike today and plan to do it again tomorrow. I really like getting in shape and the best thing about this woe (besides the food) is that feeling of being satisfied but not stuffed, bloated and yucky. Its amazing how all of the carbs I craved...

low thyroid function

Posted 08-21-2008 at 08:52 AM by cinnamin

Well, this way of eating is becoming a part of my life now. I can't believe it is almost three weeks.
I have a question for anyone who may know about supplements to take to support the thyroid. My blood tests have been normal for thyroid, but my doctor thinks my thyroid is underactive still based on all of my classic symptoms. She tried me on cytomel (t3) a couple of times and I had an allergic reaction to it. I am looking for a supplement that is safe that may help because she thinks...

Two Weeks Down and a New Home

Posted 08-20-2008 at 08:51 AM by ConnieD53

Wow, I'm so hyped. Two weeks down and 10 pounds lost. I thought about going into OWL but I was so satisfied with what I ate on induction that I'll just play around with between 20 and 25 carbs. I'm actually a bit scared to add more carbs, afraid it will stop my weight loss altogether or actually cause me to crave more things.

I think I am becoming addicted to bacon, though. Yummy to just eat, and delicious in a salad.

I have to confess that I played around on another...
