Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / February 2005You spit? Or swallow?
So you're cooking dinner for your family. I love to cook. Kids demand spaghetti, sausages, Italian all the way. Garlic bread and so on. (Later you make your own burger. But on to the question..) You're making the pasta. Which you like. A lot. You're about to test it. You pop one in your mouth and the LC angel in you says "you did what?" I mean, you gotto test for al dente. What to do! You spit? Or swallow? I had to spit. Did not make sense to risk a steady weight loss even if it was "just one little piece." It sounds weird, since I doubt if it would have made a difference. But to taste a tiny bit of what I can't have, was making less sense. So.. whuzzup with you? Best Regards, Steve Tout est per·du fors l'hon·neur So now you have an eating disorder.  SignatureYou take stupid to a new level. -- MFW > So you're cooking dinner for your family. I love to cook. Kids demand > spaghetti, sausages, Italian all the way. Garlic bread and so on.

One strand of pasta would not have even the slightest impact on your eating plan. T. still not good to get into that habit. good on ya mate. must be really hard cooking for a bunch who arent lc.

You're supposed to throw a strand of it on the ceiling, if it sticks, it's done; or switch to spaghetti squash. SignatureNo Husband Has Ever Been Shot While Doing The Dishes People are strange when it comes to the "low carb" thing. It's not about what you can or cannot have, it's about how food will affect you. I've said this probably a hundred times over, and it still doesn't come across to a lot of people. All anyone has to do is be aware of how different foods will affect the body. Really, that's what low carb is about. Eat what you want. There are rewards, and there are consequences, depending on what we eat. When we educate ourselves on how food affects our bodies, we are better able to control our weight and control our overall health. > So you're cooking dinner for your family. I love to cook.

As you know, it is a very difficult battle to deal with the commercialism, the habits the TV and all that. I don't think eating pasta is that bad. And I always cook fresh foods. Just because I'm lowcarbing I'm not going to cram protein into them to make a point. They need to learn by example. So I cook separate still. But a lot of times we eat together and I get away with it. They don't notice the lowcarb. We also watch Foodtv, and Fit TV together, so they know the lifestyle. It'll all come when it is suppose to.

I woulda spit. But another way to test spaghetti is to toss it against a wall. If it sticks, it's ready. It is what my mom used to do. Kristen > > You're making the pasta. Which you like.

I'm not having any super cravings. I'm having too much fun with all the new forms of the foods I had always liked.

LOL I just cut a piece of pasta in half and if I see a bit of a white core inside, just a bit - I know it is done. For the kids over-done is fine anyway I just don't want under-done so if there is too much white I keep cooking. > I just cut a piece of pasta in half and if I see a bit of a white core > inside, just a bit - I know it is done.

Sodom always gets the credit, and Gomorrah always does the work." - JohnN in alt.religion.christian.episcopal > You're making the pasta. Which you like. A lot. > You're about to test it.

Hilarious... and I can relate only because I work in a daycare and end up bringing in treats for birthdays and such. I end up making things like cupcakes, cookies, box brownies, etc. Nothing like mixing up a batch and staring at the chocolate, etc, on your hands. Typically I'd eat it, but I just can't bring myself to eating, basically, raw sugar... as much as I'd love to. It feels strange to wash it down the sink. Luckily my daughter happily helps me out. My favorite line that she uses all the time is that she's 'never had that before' and 'wants to try it'. From chocolate chips to cookies. Funny.
