More Thoughts:
This morning's weigh-in showed an additional 1/2 lb. loss. Now down to 181.5 lbs. Doreen's wonderful success has encouraged me to stick to it. Joe |
Good going, Joe, you've lost almost 5 pounds, haven't you? I'm jealous! Keep up the good work!

More Thoughts:
After the end of 2 weeks on this Group Project, I am pleased to report that I am so grateful to all the Moderators and the Webmaster for starting this Low Carber Forum. I have learned more from these wonderful people then reading all the LC books on the market, (although reading all the books is essential). I am again at 181.5 lbs. this morning, and I am looking forward to follow Doreen's drop to 174.5 lbs. I find it very useful to read all the participants daily reports and compare them with mine. Following this programme, I have been able to learn how to use Fitday.Com, and to be able to count calories and grams of carbohydrates, fat, and protein. I have still a lot to learn about this LC WOE, and I am relying on the help of Doreen, Karen, Rachel, Wa'il, and others who have taken this Forum to their heart. Kindest Regards from Joe Miller to all! |

Thanks, Joe! I'm so glad to see this study is working for you - and others - except me :mad: - oh, well! Rachel |
yes, thanks Joe
Learning from each other, and the support of the group is what it's all about. Pretty soon, you'll be offering the sage advice to others yourself ... ;)
best of luck and continued weight loss success. Doreen |

Day in Cycle: 3
Week: 3 Day: Saturday, Sept. 8/01 Today’s Program: Calorie Boost Foods eaten: 3 H.B. eggs 1 mug green tea 2 chicken drumsticks with skins 12 slices pepperoni 2 cups broccoli 2 tblspns sesame oil 3 cups lettuce 8 slices bacon 1 large tomato 3 tblspns oil and vinegar salad dressing 1 1/2 litres water Calories: 1785 Protein: 94 g. % of protein: 22 Fat: 142 g. % of fat: 74 Carbohydrates: 34 g. (- 14 g. fibre = 20 g.) % of carbohydrates: 5 Activity: walked 1/2 mile Measurements: 180.5 this a.m. Thoughts: It was next to impossible to eat any more today. I was trying to get to my target of 2346 calories, by eating 2 oz. of macadamia nuts and found I could not do it. Tomorrow is Stillman's Protein day and I find that day to be the most dificult day of the week to plan a menu. The reason being that no grease is allowed and I use a lot of oils in my preparation. I will have to substitute soya sauce sauce and water with herbs. |

Uh Joe, what are you talking about? Karen |
Karen, how else can I fry my turkey thigh without oil or grease?
I was planning on dry rubbing my "Turkey Marinade" on the thigh and then using a little water and soya sauce in the frying pan. Any other suggestions to a "novice" cook? Thanks Joe |
More Thoughts:
Well more good news this morning. I have dropped another 1/2 pond on the scales and I am down to a wonderful 180 lbs. I wonder how long I can continue to do this if I stay on this Group Project? Imagine losing approximately 6 lbs. after being on a 'stall' for over 4 months. I owe it all to this wonderful group of supportive Low Carbers. Watch out Doreen, I am going to catch up to your 174.5 lbs! |
