Hi BUB
I live in the south as well.
I have been low carbing for sometime and have lost a few stones.
I lost my way a little while ago and I am looking forward to monday to get back to low carbing.
Well done on your weight loss so far.

I will not start untill monday as I am going out for a meal tonight and also tomorrow.
Then I will start and I am going to try my hardest to eat low carbing for good.
I live in Essex not far from soutend-on-sea.
How are you finding eating low carb?

Hi tele
I am feeling good on this diet this time. I tried it in November but I had been 'veggie' for years and I think it was to much to expect my body to cope well with all that meat:-) I am just eating meat, eggs and cheese at the moment, I'm not having any veg or salad at all. It's much easier this way for now as I hate counting anything:-) I do have an American cup so I can do cups of salad if I feel like it. I tend to slap butter on everything by the bucket load. I am using the old book I have put the new one on the shelf as the old one is easy to understand and I much prefer it. I am reading the old one for the second time it is full of answers. I love the fun of the sticks and it does motovate you when you know you are burning the fat.

Let me know how you get on.

Hi Bubs
I started eating low carb April 2003.
I lost 5 stone and felt great. October 2003 ( when my Dad died )I lost my way and since have put some of the weight back on.
I will weigh myself tomorrow and start again.This time I am going to stay with it untill all the weight has gone.
I never counted calories last time and I am not going to this time.
How much butter do you put on food? I never know how much to use in a day.

Bubs · 02-23-2004, 04:08 AM

Hi tele
Hope the scales weren't too cruel to you today, they can be real pigs at times.
I have never weighed the butter I just slap on as much as I need/can swallow and that's it. Atkins goes on and on about eating enough and not being hungry and eating more fat and protine to lose more weight so that is what I am doing.
I got on the scales yesterday and they showed no change but I am not worried as my sticks are still saying mod keytones so I know I am burning off the fat. I might leave weighing for a week or two and then see what has happend. I did have salmon steaks on Friday evening and they upset my tum and I spent most of Sat and Sun going to the loo:-( I'm not very good with fish and shan't have it again. Hubby was fine.
On another subject I have just been online to stop all those calls for double glazing etc. BT gave the number and it's a free service that comes under your prefs. In case you want it it is- tpsonline.org.uk I have an answerphone but they are still a nusiance.

Well I'd better go now, we shall have to exchange our email adds though it is good on here that it tells me when I have any replys.

Take care,
Bubs

Hi tele
I got the post. I couldn't send to you other than pm because you were blocked, I expect I blocked my email as well for safety. I'll send another pm with it in again in case I made a typo.
