Welcome to the board! Ditto ditto Julie's post! You should be eating 2 cups of salad veggies and one cup other veggie each day! It's really imperative to eat those veggies!

Yay for veggies! At first, I kind of got bored with veggies until I checked out some recipes...Linda's Low Carb has GREAT recipes for everything, and the induction-legal ones are marked with an asterisk. Check it out!

We went to apple bees the other night I had a burbon steak no mushrooms or onions gave my sides to my husband(mash potatoes and bread) and ordered a side salad with no croutons and ranch dressing which i mixed tabassco sause with it was so yummy!!! to top it off I feel great and I really think my pants are fitting better! heres to day 6! I think i am in ketosos because i have this weird taste in my mouth that doesn't go away!!

ok day seven is the superbowl and my team DA BEARS are playing so I blew it NOT with carbs but with hot wings!!! I just made a lot I baked them instead of fried I used real butter with the hot sauce but i ate many!!! I also am having vodka with diet green tea. So I am sticking to what I can have but and this is a big but I know I ate too many wings but they are soo good!! I still feel good about not touching the chips and carb filled food. Just wanted to confess And Go BEARS
