personally think this is just the beginning.  The only problem I see for

expensive already and now we are going to have a bunch of new ...

Is there a recipe for low carb icecream? I am on the atkins diet and miss the ice cream lol. Thought i would ask to see
if anyone that a recipe for some. I am cheese caked out lol. thanks

Bought a pork loin at Costco. Wonderful value but not enough fat on
it; it would dry out too quickly. Decided to put the fat inside it so

Froze some Italian sausage links for a few hours to firm them.

As I have said previously I have been low-carbing for 5 weeks and in
some of the previous posts I keep reading about people going to the

low-carb products.  Since September, they  had a special shelving unit set

The first few days of induction I had a terrible headache, then I felt
better than I had ever felt in my life for a few days, then I went to
feeling good.  This lasted about 4 weeks, then 3 days ago I decided to
go back to induction (cutting out jello, nuts and the occasional

Ok, I have only been low-carbing for 5 weeks now and I have never felt
better in my life.  However, I am concerned as to whether it is

Good afternoon all  
I want to express my thanks to all of you unknown folks out there that have

Just arrived at my supermarket - Hood "Carb Countdown"
"Atkins friendly" 2% chocolate milk - 3g carbs per cup!
No soy and damn tasty, too!
Only one problem - it's $3.49 for a half gallon.

I drove down to Trader Joe's today and found no Bella Vita pasta on the
shelves.  I asked the store manager what was up, and he told me that they
