Anybody have a list of carbs in nuts, *per ounce*, that they could copy/paste into a post? If not, I'll just look it up myself & post it sometime. All I found on the net was by the cup or T, as follows (fiber already

| When Fat Cells Go Bad - From Stress of Obesity | 31 Aug 2007 02:56 GMT | 1 |
I liked the headline for the email. Evidently, obesity modifies or distorts some functions of fat cells that can even lead to cell death. Among other things, this "obesity stress" can activate proteins that cause insulin resistance. Some chemicals

Just finished my little two day meat fast. Didn't seem that a third day was necessary. Meat only for 24 hours seems to put my appetite in check. I was just dying for a salad, so I broke my meat fast. Had a great weigh-in today, 5.5 pounds down from yesterday. Water, of

| Picking meat out of rice, etc. | 27 Aug 2007 20:55 GMT | 4 |
I just made a big pot of meat and rice and veggies for my daughter, and a second pot of meat only for me. I'm wondering, in the future, if I can just pick the meat out of the rice and stuff, clean it off with a fork & eat it, or if a lot of carbs soak into the meat. And, if carbs ...

| 3-day meat fast? | 26 Aug 2007 00:44 GMT | 8 |
I've notice my appetite has been increasing. Even though I'm staying within my carb limit, about 20~25/day, I'm making worse choices, such as too much cheese, more mayo in the salad and so on. My weight seems to have crept-up just a little over the past week, too. (Maybe ...

| 2PD-OMER | 23 Aug 2007 02:08 GMT | 15 |
Hi. Just new. Read about the 2PD-OMER. Perhaps I have lived under a brick my whole life, as it never, ever occurred to me to have a measurement of a total day consumption in pounds, rather that calories, points, etc.
