Thanks, Busy B! I'll tell you-- they thought I'd lost my mind in the Value Village when I went to try on size 9/10 and they fit. You could have heard me whoopin' and hollerin' out in the street!

Hi, Kimlou--

The Hydroxycut doesn't seem to be making me jittery at all. (And I'm really sensitive to that) It does, however, make me a little gassy. I'm trying this out until I run out of the packets. If I see no results, I probably won't stick with it.

[BusyB]

B: none
L: 2 slices smart carb bread, 1 oz cream cheese w/ walden sf fruit spread, 1 oz cheddar cheese
S: 1 oz cheddar cheese over 2 crispbread. D Coke
D: roasted lamb, broccoli w/ butter, lettuce w/ evoo
S: a bite of Atkins bar
Water, water water..
Too much low carb products today None stall but I should've limited myself to the bran crispbread.... tomorrow is a new day

Per fitday: Total Calories: 1,277 Total Fat: 82.0 Total Carbs: 57.0 Total Dietary Fiber: 40.7 Total Protein: 86.1

Fat (56%) Carbs (17%) Protein (27%)

The Atkins bar says 3 net carbs, but the total carbs are 22, df: 11, sugar: 1, sugar alcohol: 1. The numbers don't add up, so I am counting 11 net carbs total per bar. Wish I knew before eating from it all these days. Thank God I just take a bite or two.

[kimlou]

Good Morning all ---

B- hot tea
S- Atkins Cranberry and almond bar (On the run)
L- LC wheat wrap w/ lettuce, tomato , mayo, bacon and turkey
S- sf jello w/whipped topping
D- baked tiliapia w/ butter and herbs, and broccoli
S- Not for sure yet we'll see
TRYING to get in the water


BUSYB--- There is a post on this site somewhere that tells how Atkins gets their numbers. IF I remember right it has to do with the artificial sweeteners other than the sugar alcohol listed. I'll keep an eye out for it and post it here if I can find it .

[Erica L. Butler]

Hey y'all.

BusyB, isn't it funny how many carbs those bars add up to when you do the analysis? Yikes.

Anyway, here's my menu for yesterday:

Dinner: None, really-- just a handful of pork rinds, water,
Snack: 4 breakfast sausages (nuked) crystal light (1 small glass.) more water

Today: Fried Catfish and Shrimp on the menu! Yum.
