I don't have any idea how to get anyone to join our thread. Maybe you can post a "join us" thread with the name of this thread in the message? Right now it is okay with just the two of us.
I bought some low-carb cheese straws yesterday. It was the first time that I have been able to eat cheese straws "legally" in almost a year. I separated them into the serving sizes which equals about 12 -- I used my kitchen scale. It was so freeing.
I feel better about myself than I have felt in a long time. I feel like I am finally getting control over my life. Knowing that I have such a wide variety to choose from has given me the great feeling that I don't need to sneak food and feel like crap afterwards.
