big enough person to explain how to do it for this newbie without

Not for induction!
 I've developed an eating plan that includes Hershey'd Special Dark
Chocolate Chips.  
The bag is a 12 oz bag and Serving size is 15 grams.  Each serving of

I just spoke with Laureen's sister-in-law Marlene on the phone, and she said
that Laureen is doing very well after her surgery.  She's been up walking

Those of you who witnessed Kevin's meltdown saw his supposition that I

Any of you guys have this problem? I'm 6'0", 290# with a 21" neck. The

I've used the Cake Flour Blend in cookies and cupcakes and the texture was

I am on week 2 of induction.  I got some ketostrips and tested last
night, turned dark purple immediately.  But, in the last week, my weight
hasn't been dropping at all.  In fact, it's fluxed up a bit.  Why?
I'm no where near my TOM (I control that myself via Vitex supplements-I

I got my elliptical trainer today! (yay) Just have to figure out how
to put it together (boo).
I'm just wondering (as I've never seriously exercised before) what's
generally the best time? I read you get more energy so I'm wondering

Hi you guys! I felt your prayers! Thank you! It all went off without a
hitch! They were wonderful to me.
I got to the hospital, checked in, was taken upstairs. I broke out into
a cold sweat when they wanted to draw my blood for the ABG's (arterial

Hey everyone!
I was a lowcarber for quite awhile and successfully.  Down below is my
