| Carb Credit???? | 25 Mar 2004 04:35 GMT | 2 |
OK, so I'm sitting here reading posts at lunch time and decide to dig into my bag of tricks for a luncheon entree'. I come across a can of sardines in mustard sauce, read the nutrition facts and discover they claim 0 grams carb and 2 grams fiber!!! So does this mean I get a

| Expense | 25 Mar 2004 04:17 GMT | 44 |
I once lost about 50 pounds on this diet, and wish I had stuck with it. That was about 2 years ago. Now I'd like to go back to it, but there's a couple of problems. Cost and energy! Seems to me that a person either must spend a lot of extra money on the "specialty foods" for this ...

| Boston Market Green Beans | 25 Mar 2004 03:03 GMT | 14 |
They are quite good! Sure beats that stuff in a can. They are so green and crisp. Is there anyway to cook green beans at home that even come close to those kind? How would I do it? Thank you.

It's true, according to my scales. I think I have a bad case of metabolic resistance and am desperate to drop that last 9 pounds. 3 days ago, I weighed 165.5. Today, I weighed 160.5. I'm still on it and will continue for few more days then I'm back to

| Scarlett "S" | 25 Mar 2004 02:19 GMT | 5 |
Wouldn't it be great if one effect of the low-carb movement is that restaurants begin to feel the need to mark every item on the menu that has any added sugar with a big red "S" for sugar? I'm so tired of ordering things that shouldn't have sugar in them but

Will you still lose weight like induction if you add strawberries? And will a product that has 1-2 or 3 grams of sugar stop your body from burning fat? thanks in advance

Two things.... Is there anything that I can substitute for bourbon (apricot bourbon chicken)? I have whiskey and brandy, but no bourbon! If it has to be bourbon, I will get some.

| recipe software | 25 Mar 2004 00:47 GMT | 2 |
I've been using the Sierra MasterCook software package to track new recipes on my computer. It's also excellent if you've got an ingredient issue -- need to use up some mushrooms, are allergic to peanuts -- because you can search on that basis. It also gives nutritional analyses, ...

my doctor wants me to take two calcium antacid tablets per day for calcium. she recommends the antacids because they're cheaper than buying a supplement, but are absorbed equally well. i went out and bought some Tums, only to see that they're made with sugar. it never even ...

| Exercise that "doesn't count" | 24 Mar 2004 23:44 GMT | 6 |
Since I've started working out, I've had a perceptual shift when it comes to exercise. Before I started working out, if anyone asked me "Do you exercise?" I would have said "Sure! I mow the lawn once a week, I walk to the store, I go bowling, I run around and play chase with my ...

| Afraid of being normal weight again? | 24 Mar 2004 23:41 GMT | 74 |
Some psychological insight, please. I believe that the reason so many weight-loss attempts have failed in the past for me is because I really don't want to be normal weight. Without getting into too much detail, all I got was grief

| Quantifying Carbohydrates | 24 Mar 2004 23:33 GMT | 7 |
Quantifying Carbohydrates: I've been looking for information about how the carbohydrate content of foods is determined. My guess is that most of the information we see on the labels is a simple tally of the ingredients followed by a table lookup. I know how calories are measured ...

It drives me crazy, millions of asian people eat rice all day, how do they stay skinny? The minute I eat some carbs, bang, I start blowing up. GRRR Is there a reason the oriental folks don't gain weight? Is it genetic? Please someone tell me :-)
