If you live in the Washington DC metro area, I found a place that sells
Canfields Chocolate Fudge Diet Soda. It's really hits the spot when I have a
chocolate craving. Sometimes I add a little cream to it and it tastes like

I'm invited to a Superbowl party on Sunday and would like to bring a
low-carb dessert.  I'm doing Atkins and some of the others are doing SBD,
while others are not dieting at all.  There will be shrimp cocktail, an
antipasto salad and I believe someone is bringing sloppy joe (deli)

It seems that the message for some reason was cut. Damn XNews..
So here goes again. I'll try to fill the first part from memory,

Could someone please enlighten me to these various LC substitutions for flour

know what these products are substituting for.  Why not use cornstarch?  It
only has about 4 o 5 net carbs per tablespoon, and ...

feeling "flat", low energy. I'm usually a high-energy ...

I'm having problems getting Ketosis going and I'm not sure why.  I've been
at 6 to 10 carbs a day and can barely change the color on a test strip, many

lost 6 pounds, from 225, in the 7 days I've been on it ...

A year ago I was 300 lbs (5'7") and was shooting 70u shots
of humalog 7-8 times a day and 70u shots of lantus twice a
