Time passes and we all learn tips and tricks. here are a few thngs I figured out.

1. A serving is NOT however much I want at one time.

2.Don't fake anything, no mashed cauliflower 'potatoes'..instead I have baked cauliflour mashed with cheese and cream cheese.

3. NEVER Apologise for being low carb when you visit someone. If you were a diabetic they wouldn't serve cake. why should they get all huffy if you say "no thanks, I don't eat poison?"

4. Don't "Miss" any food. Since this is about choice you can have anything you want... but why would you want to put processed sugar and refined crap into a perfectly good body..one you plan to use for awhile longer? you wouldn't pour sugar into the gas tank of a car...same applies. make low carb snack choices, you'll run better.

5. Just because you drink a gallon of water a day...and a gallon of water weighs 8 pounds...you cannot deduct 8 pounds from the scale.
