Well that gives me some idea which is alot more than I had before Sorry, I don’t know how else to explain this. P.S. The recipe I gave you is on Linda’s list. Yes I saw it there.. thank you..

Not sure where everyone else has been hiding out. But, Corinne has been entrenched in her studies. She just hasn’t had time to get to the board. Where she is an “honors Sigma Lamda Scholar” the college has her up to her eyeballs in work. Hopefully, her schedule will simmer down soon. WOW.. I didn't know all that.. I can see why she isn't here then.. LOL I don't have all that going on and I don't make it here much myself.. And Bill has been sent out countless times to different customers. His work is running him ragged. Be sure to tell him he's missed here.. He’s leaving on Monday for a week to Philadelphia to fix/train a client on one of his Spartan machines. Spartan machines?? Ummm sure.. ok.. if you say so.. I'll just nod and go with it

Jackie thank you for taking the time to explain things to the not so experienced bakers.. my dh appreciates it.. cause now I know not to fold my cream cheese with my laundry!

Sassy...Hugs back girlfriend!! and right back at yah Almonds are for the nut rung..you are right they are a nono. The flax can be used for induction. Used for what or in what? There is a limit to it. have no idea about the Nutraclease and if it is allowed. You would have to post the ingredients. The bag the lady gave me doesn't say anything about what's in it, so I looked it up for you.. http://www.newspirit.com/asp/Site/Re...s/Wellness.asp if you scroll down almost to the bottom of the page, all the info on it is there and I have the powder stuff.. but after reading that, I'm not sure that I would want to put half of this lil bag into a meatloaf! Hahahaa That's what she suggested I could do with it.. Ohh my family would so love me!! Hope the Jello does the trick for you. I haven't tried it yet In a tight spot I have been know to mix sour cream and cream cheese and splenda together...with a fork...LOL! Just a little bit because you are only allowed 1 T of sour cream during induction. Ha...can't tell me that you can't do the rungs because you have so much weight to lose when you weigh less than me and are probably taller! Ha ha ha ha The taller thing is a pretty safe bet as I am only 5' short. You're right.. I'm a whopping 5'4 LOL I won't bug you about it but do be aware that it is there and read lots of posts on the extended induction forum and you will see that there is a lot of struggling there. Like Monie said..even moving up to rung one is still a step. We care about you and want you to succeed! (More hugs) O K . . . O K . . . starting tomorrow (Sept.8th 200 I will move to rung #1 - extra veggies!! There.. happy now? LOL .. but I plan to stay here forever!!! HAHAHAHA

Folding...is kinda like a gentle big stir. They don't want you to over stir it. Just nice big circles...gently...go in one side...along the bottom and up the other side towards the middle...not round and round...until it is just mixed. OMG.. I so love your description!! LOL You're definitely a nutbar hahaha Thank you for that ohh so descriptive instructional play by play.. I loved it!

Okay...off to see what is happening DH talking to ICBC..someone hit our old motorhome and drove off...ripped the siding off....^%*^*^^%^$&^%&^%! Wow.. no &^*% I would be cursen too.. worse than a trucker! I hope $ comes outta someone else's pocket and not yours..

Robin...you will like the oopsie rolls!! I so want to make them too!!

Ok.. that was good for a laugh and then some.. thanks Elsie!

[~sassy1~]

Well.. I know I still have another page or two to get through to be caught up, but it's now after 3am and I have to get up with my son in the morning. ~heavy sighs~ Wondering why it is I still have to get up with him, etc.. when he's 14 now

Anyways.. I'll do my best to get back here later today..

It looks as if some forms are sugar coated and some have starch in them so you need to check the packet.
You might also be able to get a generic iboprufen with no sugar or starches instead.

((Elizellen)) Well at least I was not crazy. There is sugar in there. When I took the two tablets on Thurs. I made sure I took them with food. That is why I thought it had to be the pills. All I had was a chicken cesar salad but I figured it was all legit. Those pills were the only thing that I added. Did you know that if you sucked on the pills the sugar taste does not go away for like 45 seconds. Some girl did a test online I guess.

Thank you for doing some research for me. That was very nice of you. When I looked I didnt find this piece of info. that you did. Next time I will stick to plain asprin.


As for my weekend. Everything went very well. I was able to stay on plan and made it through the weekend without SUGAR. I was very tempted by my scale. It was really calling out to me for some reason. But I am signed up for the no weigh diet challange & I cant weigh till the 13th.

Okay the best meal choice that I made this weekend was a lettuce roll up thing. I dont know why but in the past every time I tried these they just weren't so great. This time however instead of making them with Romaine lettuce I used Iceburg. Wow! that really made a big difference. I dont know why, but it did. They tasted just like a chef salad. I dipped them in a little legal ranch dressing and they were so yummy. Guess what is for lunch today?

Hi everyone! I haven't posted much in the last few weeks. I just wanted to stop by and say "Hello" to you all. Work's been crazy and DH has been sick...now I'm sick with a cold. FUN!

[Elsie150]

Robin...best of luck with the house deal going through! Very exciting! And hope the scale stays down for weigh day. A good week in Robinville!!

Sassy...you are so funny...I laughed all the way through your replies to everyone. I sure appreciate you taking the time for that!!! You laugh all you want...you know it took me a long time to figure out how to spell tck tck!!!!! LOLOL! I am not a sweet nut...I am a low carb nut...LOL!

<<In addition to fiber, Nutri Cleanse™ also contains a host of other herbs such as aloe vera, apple pectin, rosehips, garlic and black walnut. It is further enhanced with a special probiotic mix of lactose free acidophilus and bifidus.>>

LOL...I am thinking good thing you got that free. If I am playing devil's advocate I would be saying you can't use it because of the apple pectin..that would be fruit rung...and black walnut..hmmm..I am guessing the nut rung...LOL! If I am being...um...not the devil's advocate...I would say the aloe vera and the rosehips MAY come under the veggie rung...ROFL...so maybe that would count towards your 5 extra carb grams on rung 1...LOLOL!!! I sure wouldn't be buying the pill form..they tell you to work up to 10 pills...and she wants you to use 1/2 a bag in meatloaf? What does she do sell it in bulk...that sure would add up $$$$. May as well use it up though. If you want to count it as a fiber thing...Dr A limits the flax to 1 serving a day. You can sprinkle it on your salads. There is a flax cracker you can make. In my recipe thread there is a recipe as well...with an note about the limit as well.

Having a rung 1 party for ya...I'm dancing...like it's my birthday....looking for the hula hoop...I won't bug you for at least one week...LOL....

Shauna...this is going to sound weird but the other day I had it with the lettuce on the inside and the meat (chicken sandwich meat) on the outside...totally different taste...liked it way better. I think that idea came from the recipe thread.

Hey Carmella! Nice to see ya! Sorry to hear DH and you are sick!!! Look at you so close to Onderland! And I see you will be joining Sassy on rung one soon...good to have a goal.

Busy busy here. Gotta go tuck in the kids...night all!

Alrighty then.. I just made it and ummm.. ~makes a funny face with nose crinkled~ I don't think I like that much.. I put it in the fridge to see if maybe it being cold will help. If not.. the guys can fight over it. lol

Mikeeee
I've been wondering where you were hiding.. I'm happy to see you back here! You can do anything you set your mind to.. really you can.. mind over matter lol Let me know how your oopsie rolls turn out cause I wanna make them too but am afraid hahaha Congrats on the 4lb loss my friend!! Woohoo!! hahaha You're hilarious.. "I liked those 14 pounds so much I'm going to lose them twice!" I hope you had a great Monday!

Sugar
Way to go in regards to getting back on track and beating the sugar binge! Only 2/3 more lbs till you hit your first goal!! Woohoo!!
"i have been singing.."ding dong the witch is gone" all week (shows how much i miss her.. hehe)" I didn't realize you were so sensitive Sugar! HAHAHA I had a visual there for a moment.. too funny.. I'm so happy to hear that all is going so peachy in Sugarland!
PS. I just tried the colder version of the cream cheese & sweetener and well.. I can handle lil licks here and there, but I couldn't eat it all in one sitting. That bowl may last all week. LOL

Holding
I'm happy to hear that it was an almost stopped Atkins and not that you did ~clapping hands~ Like I said before, it isn't all about Atkins when we're thinking of quiting.. alot of that self doubt comes from all the things going on in our lives. Stress is a reason for sure, and you're not alone on that ride! As for planning way ahead.. excuse me for a moment while I laugh my head off.. I never plan way ahead! OMG.. I think my family would go into shock if I even started trying to do something so practical as that! I almost always wing it.. my Dh wants me to make a recipe book and we were trying to come up with a name for it if I ever were to and it went something like this "Just Wingin It The Low Carb Way!" hahaha.. Apparently I have talent at wingin up good grub. It's good to know I'm good at something Whenever I ask my family now what they want for dinner, they always say.. something low carb! haha Ohh boy. I hear feel the same about climbing rungs, due to the fact that I also have lots of weight to go myself.. but I was bullied into climbing up to rung #1, which is where I'll remain till the end of time! haha Please know that I'm here for you too, remember that!

[~sassy1~]

Elsie
Reorganizing your craft room sounds like fun.. I love craft stuff.. I got into scrap booking, making necklaces & bracelet's. It was alot of fun, but I have not done any of it for quite some time now. My Dh figures I could sell my jewelry on ebay Umm yeah.. anyways.. I can only hope your tummy was half as sore as mine was/is.. I think I need to put a box of tissues by my computer due to the tears from laughing so hard! About your "tck" "tck" .. I was singing it for hours! Hahaha.. even makin the lil tongue clucks or is that clicks? lmao Sweet nut.. low carb nut.. I'll take yah whatever kinda nut you are! I think I know the perfect place for the Nutri Cleanse.. garbage can! hahaa .. I don't want it.. to many rungs to have to worry about as I'm never leaving #1 The bag she gave me is smallish like 4x5ish and the one they had there for sale was huge! It was more like 11x12 or something? I have no clue what the price was either and I don't care to know. lol But then I have that other stuff, so I have to figure it out or I'll just stumble upon something that says flax seed (milled) whatever that means A Flax cracker.. ohh boy.. that sounds ummm.. nummy.. ~not~ "Having a rung 1 party for ya...I'm dancing...like it's my birthday....looking for the hula hoop..." Ohh don't go getting to excited there Elsie, as I don't wanna see yah hurt yourself! I have to get myself back into eating breakfast and lunch, and I would like to see me getting back into writing it all down. I know how much it helps, but it's just too much like work! I'm pretty much just eating dinner these days.. really scrumptious dinners, but alas it's only one meal a day which I know isn't enough. When I read "I won't bug you for at least one week...LOL.." I needed some tissues! You're good for me!

Robin
I hope all works out for you in regards to buying a house. It is alot of stress that's for sure! If I may put my 2 cents in here.. the 1st day you joined up here or weighed yourself.. that should be your weigh-in day only. Once a week is healthy and is alot more accurate than daily weighing, also on that same day you should take your measurements. Let your body have a week to wow you! No matter what you decide, I only wish the very best for you.

Shauna
Way to stick to the challenge gf! As for the pills, I am a firm believer of Advil Gel Caps.. the green ones that are for Migraines and even the research showed they aren't like the rest. I love how we label foods hahaha a lettuce roll up thing lol.. well as long as you enjoyed the thing, that's all that matters!

Cara
~hands you some tissue~ I hope you feel better soon.


Sorry for the very long posting... but I had to get caught up
