New Slogan!
Forum, Geek Stuff (2)
I posted something similar in my journal on the forum but I wanted to share it here too.I just wanted to say how happy I am with the forum. I am amazed how positive and friendly it has remained. I know we have a lot of different views on low carbing here, yet everyone is able to get along and respect each other's opinions and that is exactly what I had hoped for! I think we all can learn from each other. Ultimately, we all have the same goal - to become heathier and stay that way! In light of ...

400!
Forum (4)
Yup! 400 members! Wow! I continue to be soooo amazed. You guys are all awesome. The forum is exactly the sort of place I imagined it would be where all sorts of low carbers and even non-lowcarbers can coexist in peace! You guys make me so happy! If you haven't joined yet, what are you waiting for? You're missing out on all the cool smileys! In fact, I'm now going to go on the hunt for a smiley to celebrate #400!

Google it before you eat it!
Diet Advice (16)
A big part of losing weight and maintaining is being aware of what you are putting in your mouth and making choices that are going to help you reach your goals. While I don't use fitday or CalorieKing on a daily basis anymore, while I was losing weight, tools like these were really important! The subject of mascarpone cheese came up in the forum today and just for kicks I entered it into CalorieKing and DailyPlate to get the numbers (I have never tried mascarpone although it sounds yummy!). 120 cals for 1 TABLESPOON! That is a whole lot of ...

Haven’t posted much…sorry!
Forum, Next Food Network Star (5)
I haven't gotten on here to post as much. Sorry about that! It's been rough and I haven't had much to say. This weekend I was very upset about my cat. I spent a lot of time sort of moping around the house. Sometimes she seems so normal and then nights like last night where she made a mess at 3am...well, it gives me a peek at what this next month or so may have in store for me. I'm hanging in there and watching for signs that she is unhappy or whatever. So far, for the most part she ...

New video(s) tomorrow
Recipes (0)
I should have at least one and maybe two video recipes up by tomorrow. One is a dessert and the other will be a salmon recipe. I just have to go to the store tomorrow morning to get the ingredients. I made chicken satay tonight. I didn't have the coconut milk so I couldn't make the version on my web site but here's what I used instead: 1/3 c peanut butter 1/3 c water 2 TB lime juice 2 TB soy sauce dash of cayenne Whisk together and dip your chicken in it! Yummmmmm!

Sad news
Pets (9)
I just found out my 11 year old cat Nermal has cancer and has about a month to live. She has two masses in her stomach and it's untreatable. She's acting pretty normal right now but she's lost a lot of weight already. She got a steroid shot today that is may shrink the mass a bit and give her a little more time but it's only a 50% chance of really helping and even then, it's not a cure, it just gives her a little more time. My vet said unless she shows a dramatic improvement, it's not really ...

300!
Forum, TV (0)
No not the movie...the number of people on the forum now (actually 302 as of right now). Thanks everybody! I never thought we'd have this many people so soon. We've got a great group of people so if you haven't joined already, feel free to join! We have a good mix of all types of low carbers and even some who aren't doing low carb at all.Also, just a reminder Kitchen Nightmares is on tonight. I'm a huge Gordon Ramsey fan and even watched the BBC version of Kitchen Nightmares so I can't wait to see the American version! I ...
