Love this place
I was looking for low carb recipes, using Google search engine. I found this site. I'm sure glad I did. I started my new way of eating July 17, 2003. I had bloomed up to 188 lbs. I felt really bad physically, didn't have the energy to do what I wanted. I had read and tried Dr. Atkins Plan, around a year ago, but got tired of eating the same thing all the time, so started cheating and before I knew it the weight was back. Made up my mind this time to try again, and this time to find more things I could eat. I have lost 15 lbs. and feel so good. It is really something how the things you eat affect your body. Before when I was eating everything I wanted I had lots of gas and heart burn. Now I have very little gas and no heart burn. When I was on induction I had no gas, but when I started to add veggies back to my diet I experienced a small amount, but nothing like before. Have never experienced the constipation like some of the folks on here, that I have read about. Thank goodness for that. Can't believe I'm discussing this on the internet, but just wondered if anybody else had noticed this since they have been lcing? The most wonderful thing about this site is the recipes. I have tried the cauliflower mock mashed potatoes, and loved them, also the fake hash browns, using Daikon, also made Pork Balls and sourkraut, using chopped radishes, instead of rice for the pork balls. It was so good. Made the low carb bread and it is great, but I felt guilty when I ate a slice. It's really to good to be true. Thanks to all of you. I have been in here reading allot of post, and finally got the nerve to post something. Sylvia
