New to site
 
I have been somersizing for almost 2 monthes nad have lost 20#. I am in search of education in converting my reipes to low carb, and have them turn out. I don't know how to switch sweetners, flours, etc. and have good results. I have been cooking and baking for 35 years and love good tasting food. Can anyone help me?
Also I do not understand how to find the recipes??

Right now I'd focus on trying new low carb whole foods that you've never tried, and trying out new LC recipes from a reputable cookbook or our recipe forums near the bottom of the board.

Don't worry about changing HC recipes to LC now because it can take time, get into the swing of things and then see what you can do. Are you still Sommorsizing?

still somersizing
 
Yes, I am still Somersizing. It makes the most sense to me?
I have purchased many of her items, but they are spendy and I would like to make my own, like choc fudge browies and choc cookies. her boxes only make 8 cookies and it was $15.

Hi. :wave:

Hit that forum jump button, and scroll down to the Kitchen forums. :thup: They're organized into sub-forums by Main Dishes, Sweet Treats, etc. There are TONS of recipes! :daze:

If you have any general questions, drop by the "Kitchen Help" forum.

Because soy/gluten flours don't behave quite like all-purpose flour, and sweeteners don't behave like sugar, it's difficult to simply convert recipes. :( There are very few rules of thumb to use. The good news is that a lot of creative people have done a lot of experimenting for you. ;) Try some of the recipes!

Have fun!
