Default I am in hamburger heaven!!

I have been craving a big juicy chargrilled hamburger. I know I have a hamburger no bun all the time. I wanted a toasted bun... mayo... lettuce... pickles.. cheese..
Today I bought the O-so-lo brand low carb buns. I buttered that sucker up toasted it on the grill while thick juicy burger was cooking next to it.
All I can say is HOT DAMN!!!!!! It was so good!!!!!!!!!!!! I wont do it everyday but as a treat it was so yummy. That and I stayed on plan!!!!!!

I used to buy them at GNC in MA - they recalled them due to molding. I say "buy a refrigerator GNC, I need my Oso GOOOD"

Ian try the cinnamon raisin osolo by making them as french toast with extra cinnamon, sugar free syrup and bacon. Yum....I have this a lot and it has not stalled me at all. On the contrary, the osolo seem to be better for my blood sugar than the Atkins breads. My blood sugar readings lately have been outstanding and I have one of these rolls every day....either for breakfast or I have one for lunch or dinner as a sandwich.

I've always grumbled that the nearest town to my house is a college town (lots of traffic) BUT I'm so happy now because these are available at the health food store along with Food For Life bread. There's a pharmacy that sells Keto products and a GNC in the mall. Now, if I can just get the health food store to carry La Tortillas I'll be all set!!!

Well, I went to osolo.com and found a store maybe 25 minutes away ,I asked them if they have other low carb products . The girl told me they have all kinds because the owner is on Atkins. Yippee . I asked about tortillas and she said they do get them but they run out right away and are out right now.
