| Flax & low carb. | 30 Sep 2004 22:27 GMT | 19 |
I'm going to try the low-carb way again! The reason why I had to stop several times, was a problem with constipation. I'm wondering how can I take 2 to 3 tblsp. a day of flax, without making everything taste horrible.

| Atkins vs deadly Trans-Fat | 30 Sep 2004 21:58 GMT | 4 |
I just learned about how deadly Trans-Fat is. Trans-Fat , also known as Partially Hydroginated vegitable oil is worse than smoking (per lots of studies). Not only it can ruin your body with deadly diseases, it also gets you FAT.

| Low Carb Relationships | 30 Sep 2004 14:32 GMT | 49 |
In looking for a possible girl friend, I often felt it was important that she have the right religion and ethnic background. Now, my top priority is that she lives low carb. Has anyone on here been divorced after low carb vs. low fat fights?

| BMI | 30 Sep 2004 11:20 GMT | 4 |
Lot of talk about BMI. I don't quite get it really. I looked at a chart at my club yesterday and I saw that my weight should be between 140-190. I am 6'2". Not sure if I was reading the chart correctly? I didn't see a separate chart for women and men, but I suspect there may be ...

| Exhaustion, and budging the last 15 pounds | 30 Sep 2004 05:12 GMT | 10 |
1. Is anyone here "at goal"? Can you share what it was like losing those last ten to fifteen? That's where I'm at right now. I've redoubled my efforts. 2. Can bone-crushing exhaustion be a result of LC? I have experienced

| Help with calculations | 30 Sep 2004 03:48 GMT | 4 |
Maybe it's because I've been out of the LC loop for so long (since about July,) but I seem to be having some trouble with the nutritional label of a product. I decided to give the Slim-Fast CarbZone bars a try. The nutrition label says...:

Man I had a lot of REALLY big clothes ;-) I probably have about 80 shirts/pants/shorts that I'm going to give to some lucky Goodwill.. (unless anyone in Austin reads this and needs some XXL/size 42 stuff!) I love the casual chronology too...I'm lazy, so clothing items were

| resetting goal weight with actual BMI - underwater weighing | 29 Sep 2004 21:32 GMT | 7 |
I had figured on a BMI target of around 22-23. For my height, that would be around 180. Recently I have started to wonder where else I could lose weight. While I'm not exactly Mr. Sixpack Abs, I am fairly bulletproof from weight

I came across a commercial diet program, that I had never heard of. http://dietandbody.com/banta/index.htm It is called Banta, based on William Banting. I don't need to pay them $25.50 at this point, but if I were just starting

| steak! | 29 Sep 2004 17:02 GMT | 8 |
I don't eat steak very often, but I was in Sam's club and they had some ribeyes on sale. I fired up the charcoal grill this afternoon and seared them Pittsburgh style* to med-rare. I gotta tell you steak is so damn good! I wish it was cheaper, but I find that the junk I see on ...

Possible to make a low-carb creme brulee, flan, or custard? I know I won't have the crackly crust, but it's occurred to me I could pour a little Torani caramel syrup over the top, or serve with raspberries.
