hi all its been awhile since I have posted. But I do read all the time. I have a problem and was hoping someone could help. I have been eating this way since Jan. 22 and love it. but for the last 6 weeks nothing. no weight loss. but still have stuck to it latey its to the point im eating ice cream once a week for the last 2 week. i dont gain and I dont loss either. Im so frustrated. I know I should just stop eating it. Ok as of this min. I will not eat ice cream. I guess I just needed to write it down thank you all. I think I have the will power to keep on track.

Check out a LC ice cream recipe or you can order it here.

I don't know what it tastes like but it's better to eat that than the real thing, you don't want real icecream to lead to other high carb food cravings. You've done so well since January - keep up the great work.

There is a low carb luxury newsletter and this month it had ice cream recipes in it. If you have an ice cream maker, (they're relatively cheap) you might want to try making your own. The first recipe is one that I swear I've been calling my $50 ice cream recipe because I had to buy a bunch of stuff I didn't have at home, most of them through the mail, but I want to give it a try. I believe the website is www.lowcarbluxury.com. If you're interested and can't find it, let me know and I'll dig up the exact web site for you!

Here's the link that'll take you directly to the site. I made the Philadelphia ice cream the other night, put servings in paper-lined muffin pans to complete freezing. Very convenient, and very good, too!

Yes there are LC icecreams (listed above). It is better for you. You should pretty soon start losing weight, if you are following the steps. I wish you good luck!

There's a collection of home-made low carb ice cream and sherbet recipes posted in our Kitchen forum, in the Sweets and Treats section. Check out Homemade LC IceCream, Sherbet and Ices. There's a great discussion, and ideas for making your own with natural ingredients .. no preservatives or sugar alcohols.

Hey WaterH2O!
You have been doing great so far! I am pretty new to this woe, but from what I have read...hang in there and you will be "a loser" soon. That ice cream is like those "ancient sirens from a mystic sea calling out to lonely sailors". I keep looking at the box it comes in and can't figure out how it keeps calling my name!!!!!!!LOL. I gave in last night after 2 whole months without ice cream. I had about a cup and boy did I feel like crap right away. And this morning I got a lot of reading done in my "office". Lol. Do you think I learned...I hope so.
