[Livywilltim-mom]

Hi Jen,

Your menu looks good. I am making the cheese crust pizza for dinner along with some LC chix parmesan. I haven't made the pizza before, we'll have to compare notes tomorrow.

Have a great day!

[LowCarbRunner]

Good morning everyone. This nice weather sure makes me want to stay on plan so I can wear summer clothes soon!

I made oopsie rolls last night and they turned out pretty good. I think i can do an even better job next time. They taste good too...much better than other low carb breads I have tried.

B: scrambled eggs with hot pepperoni mixed in, coffee (5 carbs)
L: burger on an oopsie roll and brocolli
S: stuffed chicken
D: chicken wings and salad

Good Morning to all,

I hope that everyone is having a cheat free day I have a question, is it true that eating more fat helps with the weight loss? Tell me your thoughts.

[Livywilltim-mom]

LC, great menu!!

Loretta, I do think, that especially during induction, that Fat Is Our Friend. It really helps to keep us full for a longer time. Just my 2 cents...

[mac24312]

Morning everyone! I dont have long to chat today due to the fact I need to get stuff ready to go to my DH uncles funeral tommorow. Just wanted to say Hi and I hope everyone is having a great LC week. Here is my supposed menu..it might change..
B-Tuna Salad made with Tuna, Egg, and 1 TBS of Mayo
L-Crab Salad made the same way
S-Fish if I have time to fix it or LC Meat Loaf with Cauliflower Bake

Still the Same weight and off TOM as of today. Hope it starts moving again soon!

You all have a great LC Day! Miss getting to post with you all! Funereal is tommorow so I will be late tommorow afternoon getting back on.

Wow, I leave in the evening and come back in the morning to find that someone left all those fantastic low carb tips on the sight. I was going to try and find my book but all I have to do is click and read . Thank you hummingbird!!

So, how is everyone this morning? I'm getting a late start but better late than never. I have to run to the store later. I want to try and make the "Thin and Crispy Pizza Crust" I saw. It sounds yummy.

[COLOR="Blue"]Subject: angels as told by kids


1. I only know the names of two angels, Hark and Harold. (Gregory, 5)

2. Everybody's got it all wrong. Angels don't wear halos anymore. I forget why, but scientists are working on it. (Olive, 9)

3. It's not easy to become an angel! First, you die. Then you go to heaven, and then there's still the flight training to go through. And then you got to agree to wear those angel clothes. (Matthew, 9)

4. Angels work for God and watch over kids when God has to go do something else. ( Mitchell, 7)

5. My guardian angel helps me with math, but he's not much good for science. (Henry, 8)

6. Angels don't eat, but they drink milk from Holy Cows. (Jack, 6)

7. Angels talk all the way while they're flying you up to heaven. The main subject is where you went wrong before you got dead. (Daniel, 9)

8. When an angel gets mad, he takes a deep breath and counts to ten. And when he lets out his breath, somewhere there's a tornado. (Reagan, 10)

9. Angels have a lot to do and they keep very busy. If you lose a tooth, an angel comes in through your window and leaves money under your pillow. Then when it gets cold, angels go north for the winter. (Sara, 6)

10. What I don't get about angels is why, when someone is in love, they shoot arrows at them. (Sarah, 7)

11. All angels are girls because they gotta wear dresses and the boys didn't go for it. (Antonio, 9)

12. My angel is my grandma who died last year. She got a big head start on helping me while she was still down here on earth. (Katelynn, 9)

13. Some angels are in charge of healing sick animals and pets. And if they don't make the animals get better, they help the child get over it. (Vicki, 8)

14. Angels live in cloud houses made by God and his son, who's a very good carpenter. (Jared, 8)

Hi Christina,

I don't own a business, I am a teacher/admin at a private Catholic school, and I choreograph and teach dance a few evenings a week and in the summer.

The business I listed was the one on the back of the great new Vodka spaghetti sauce I found with only 2 net grams of carbs!

I am so sorry to hear about your family's loss, and I pray that these next 2 days find you all in God's care and comfort.

Peace

[mac24312]

Oh..ok..where did you find it at? I have not seen it around here?

[Determinedtolose]

[COLOR="Purple"]Hi Christina, thank you!!!

I have two cats. Sadie is the Maine Coon and Bailey is an orange tabby. We adopted them when they were about 6-7 months old. And then I have my hubby...he's a whole different breed . Actually, I can honestly say that I have no complaints about him. The Marine Corp trained him well.......

[dixediva1]

Hi LC Sistah's,

WOW, great postings today. Lots of good advice ,and tips.

I need all the help I can get.

Wooooo Hooooo, another lb. gone. I do wish I could brake the habit of daily weighing.. that is my drug of choice . lol
I could have worse , and more costly habits.

Would someone please post the cheese pizza crust.

Christina, your family are in our thoughts ,and prayers.

Diana, yes we have The True Back...My DH uses it more than I do. It works wonderful . It is worth every penny ..well dollar. It is cheaper on ebay.

The faux Mashed Potatoes : use steamed cauliflower instead of potatoes. I make it just like I would mashed taters , a little milk ,and butter, salt to taste.

Hi to everybody, I am horrible w/names..so if I don't mention your name just know I think ,and care about each one of you.

my menu:

B- 2 homemade turkey sausage, 1/2 serving of Lavish Bread , w/ SF jam. coffee

L- 1/3 serving dreamfields pasta, 1/2 chicken breast cut into bite size pieces , mushrooms, onions cooked till tender , 1/4 cup Alfredo sauce. all mixed together. diet pepsi
MY WORD THIS WAS GOOD..lol

D- serving of Tuscan Chicken. tea

This is my High Carb Day.

My version of Tuscan Chicken makes 2 servings

1 can of pinto beans

1 cooked chicken breast

( I use left over grilled chicken , OR store bought rotisserie chicken )

1 small onion

1 cup of water

1 slice of Swiss Cheese ( this is what makes a creamy sauce )

warm beans ,1 cup water, and onion together until onion is tender. then add chicken cook till throughly warmed

just before serving add swiss cheese.

I am also going to add left over mushrooms.

Is it dinner time yet..lol. I love this dish . Its easy just throw it together.

The high carb / low carb is : The Fat Burning Diet by Jay Robb

it just made sense to me . it keeps your metabolism up. your body doesn't adjust to no carbs. its a way to trick your body into working harder.. this just made perfect sense to me. this has worked better for me than any diet I've every tried. Even WW , I can look at the NI on any product , and immediately tell you the points.. I got so sick of counting points that I just quit . I didn't gain all my weight back though Thank God.
I am trying to lose that last 20 lbs..Trust me I will

Well now that I've written you all a book..lol . I guess 2nd chapter will come later.

Have A Happy LC Day,

Rachel

[dixediva1]

Chris , I see where you like the turkey pepperoni. I love them microwaved for one minute. they get crispy like chips.

It's a very high protein snack for me.

Great afternoon pick me up if I need it. Usually on my low carb days.

If you try let me know how you like them. Our kids love them.

[COLOR="Olive"]You can use crab by itself, but I used the crab and some tuna. For Stillmans I would not use oil to fry them in, you can also make them into the muffins as well. But if you're doing Atkins, the oils okay. [/COLOR]

Here you go Rachel! I just found 2 more recipes for pizza crust!

Thin and Crispy Pizza Crust
Heat oven to 450 degrees
In a bowl thoroughly combine
3 eggs
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp basil
press evenly into Pam sprayed pizza pan or cookie sheet
(this makes one 16 inch pizza crust)
Bake at 450 degrees until golden brown (about 10 to 15 minutes)

Here is what your crust looks like after baking. It will completely lift off your cookie sheet. I patted the grease off of it, but that step is optional add toppings of your choice

This one has the following toppings~

1/4 cup low carb marinara
1 cup Mozzarella cheese
2 links Italian sausage (browned and crumbled)
1/4 cup sliced back olives

After adding toppings, run the pizza under the broiler until cheese is melted and toppings are bubbly add toppings of your choice

This one has the following toppings~

1/4 cup low carb marinara
1 cup Mozzarella cheese
2 links Italian sausage (browned and crumbled)
1/4 cup sliced back olives

After adding toppings, run the pizza under the broiler until cheese is melted and toppings are bubbly add toppings of your choice.
This slices up beautifully and the crust is crispy and thin.
Yes, you can hold it in your hand!

[Mallory]

Diana,
I remember you posting a recipe for choc chip meringue cookies and were wondering about the carb count...did you ever get one??
I was looking at that recipe the other day and I changed it a bit for a lower count..because I only have Dixie Diner choc chunkies, I calculated only for 1/ 2 cup, and eliminated the granular splenda as its too high in carbs..
So, 3 egg whites was 1
the above choc chunkies is 4
the walnuts..8..maybe another nut is even lower??
13 for 10-12 cookies..is not bad at all!
If you were using the granular splenda, its about 24 carbs per cup (I think) so you would need to add that in as well and that ups the cookies. I dont use the granular at all so Im going by what I can remember being posted.

Let me know if you got something different as Im wanting to make these too.

[Determinedtolose]

[COLOR="Blue"]Hi Mallory!

I wasn't able to figure that out because I'm still figuring out how to use MC. But, I did see Barbo post that same chocolate chip recipe using those chips on the Recipe thread.
I'm sorry!![/COLOR]
