adukart- if they are too p-buttery just add 1/4c p-butter and add another 1/4c of cream cheese. You are just replacing fat for fat, so they should still be the same consistancy I would think?

Looks like everyone has taken a few day off of here like I did. Just haven't had time to post the past couple of days. Well, almost 1/4 of the way there. I don't know about anyone else, but I am kinda finding it hard to not cheat. I mean lately I've been having a bit of a struggle not grabbing a handful of froot loops or a bite of what I make my kids for dinner. The only thing keeping me from doing it is the fact that I've lost more weight than ever before. I have to keep saying to myself, is it really worth gaining again just to have a hand full of frootloops. Or, do I really want to start back at 1 day after I'm this close. Some days it gets hard tho. Oh well, enough babbeling, guess I just needed to vent. Thanks for listening.
Have a healthy day.

Hi guys
Yep been busy but now have time to stop in. Everyone seems to be doing great. I have been doing my walks everyday and eating right. Good news around here is there is about 4 or 5 choices of low carb bread in our stores. It seems every store has one low carb bread and the prices are going way down. So it is getting more affordable.
w82bthin just keep telling yourself no to all those bad bad foods. LOL

I know earlier tonight I was in one of those look in all the cupboards moods cuz nothing sounded good, but I just had to have something. GOD I wanted popcorn sooooo bad. I ended up with 3 SF RS candies, but that certainly didn't replace the want for popcorn. TOM is around the corner (monday) so it always gets hard now.

I would be more motivated if I could see the damn scale move past 215 for once. Been stuck there or fluctuating up 2 or so the last week. Up and down up and down, I want down, down, down!!!

Kathy just stick with it and the scale will go down. I was stuck at 201 for about 3 weeks. Very frusturating!
Has anyone noticed their fingernails growing better now. Before mine were brittle , flaky and weak. Now they are nice and hard and growing.

I am doing ok at not cheating on carby foods, but I am REALLY wanting a diet pepsi, which was on my no-no list. I haven't had one for almost 3 weeks now.

I tried Diet Rite, but it was so sweet. Of course everything tastes a bit sweet to me lately.

I am going to try some Kool-Aid with splenda and club soda.
