  • Today is my birthday!!!

    Well --- today, 59 years ago, I was born!! I must say that I am feeling really good today. lol My scales are broken so I can't weigh and maybe somewhere in the back of my mind, I really don't want to know. At least for today. I honestly dreamed about eating birthday cake. First M&M's and now birthday cake. I even contemplated it when I was in Wal-Mart yesterday. I saw a cake in the bakery and thought I might just buy it and eat the entire thing and no one would have to know. It's funny, but this morning that thought is gone and I think I'm past the temptation. I have not had anything sweet except for a few blueberries and a few strawberries about once a week. I know somewhere on this Board there is a recipe for 'clouds'. I think that is what they are called. I may go and just check out the recipe but I hesitate to start on any sweets right now. I just may switch the sweet 'thing' for one low carb tortilla. Maybe I can put a candle in that. lol

        Who needs cake?!?!?
        Cut yourself a few slices of this instead



        I just realised you are almost catching me up!!
        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
        Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!

            I just read your post and wanted to wish you a very Happy Birthday. I bet you are even happier that you didn't go for the m&m's and cake! Have a great Birthday!
