Help Test a New Online Low Carb Program

I was thinking about low carb substitutions - when you are jonesin’ for a bagel - what do you replace it with? I have my own list, but I know you folks out there could certainly come up with a bunch as well - my list would be no better than anyone else who’s been [...]

Scrambled Eggs with Grilled Chicken and Cheese

I did not hold out high hopes for this one - I thought it would be edible, maybe, but I was impressed as to how well the flavors went together.
Plus, it was so simple.
I have been playing with a bag of Foster’s Grilled Chicken strips - they are already cooked and frozen - just take [...]

Anyone For Low Carb Pizza?

Well, it happened yet again: yesterday we forgot to take something out of the freezer to thaw for dinner before we left for work.
Good thing I remembered saying we should make pizzas this week, and I’ve learned the hard way to keep our cupboards stocked with staples for quick meals like this one.
If you can [...]

Product Review – Tanita bathroom scale model BF-679W

If you read my other post about scales, you know the jury was still out on the ConAir “Weight Watchers” branded one I bought a few weeks ago to replace “Ol’ Red.” Sorry to say, the ConAir went back to the store on Sunday. Too many days went by [...]

In Search of the Perfect Low Carb Pasta

If you are like me, living low carb makes you give up the fattening delight of a big plate of noodles. I’m fond of Italian recipes as my mother was part Italian and growing up we always had ravioli, spaghetti, lasagna, and the like.

Recommended Product - Reynolds Handi-Vac

I don’t believe I am a person with too many pet peeves. I try not to let things bother me. It’s been said that from a psychological standpoint, there are two types of people - we more or less fit into one or the other category - it’s to the degree that we are in [...]

Alibris.com - Food for Thought

I am reticent to make too many recommendations of products or services because I think it’s kind of cheap, so when I do recommend something, it’s usually because I really know and like it - and think you might as well.
As a person who enjoys reading, I believe that Alibris is a well-kept secret. [...]

Dining Out - Low Carb Dining at PF Chang’s

One of the things that is great about low carb living is that you can dine out and eat quite well. You just have to be careful. Recently I went to PF Chang’s - a Chinese ‘casual dining’ restaurant - PF Chang’s is to Chinese food what The Olive Garden is to Italian food.
Problem with [...]

Change Your Weight, Change Your Life - Chapter 1

Everything you are about to read is bullshit.
Having got that out of the way, I am going to give you a number of things that you can consider as food for thought. The first thought is: not only is everything I’m saying here bullshit, but everything that you think, that you believe, is bullshit too.
Fact [...]
