• Clean Keto Bun Recipe - 1.6g Net Carbs

    This is my own recipe that I created from experimenting with ingredients. It is gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, yeast-free, and clean Keto. A similar bun of regular bread may contain as much as 20 grams of carbs! INGREDIENTS: 6 large eggs, room temperature Flaxseed, go

    I came across this recipe on Pinterest, and I am in love! I found several versions - kalynskitchen.com, snackinginthekitchen.com, and cheeseslave.com. So, as usual, I had to play with the recipe - of course I made some changes. I tried it first in regular muffin pans wi

  • Low Carb Gluten-free Pancakes - 2 carbs

    Yesterday was my birthday, and so I was looking around online for a low carb birthday cake. While I did find a few, they all used artificial sweeteners and since I am still experiencing a headache from the Yogurt Bites I made the other day with yogurt sweetened with Splend

  • No Carb Cheese Crackers - 0 carbs

    I was looking for something to make with chicken soup and the low carb cracker recipe I found on DiabetesForum.com used Almonds, which I cannot due to an allergy. So I played with it a bit and made some no-carb crackers - and they taste great! The only thing is, I did no

Weigh In Day - One Month

Catherine McDiarmid-Watt | 10:02 AM | 1 comments

Weigh In Day - One Month - 9.6 pounds lostMy New Year's Resolution this year was to lose weight, and so I started dieting right after New Year's day.

I went on my usual low calorie / low fat diet with an average of 1,400 to 1,600 calories per day. By March 22nd I had lost 8 pounds (3.63 kg) - it took almost 3 months.

I lost an average of 2.67 pounds (1.21 kg) per month on my usual low calorie / low fat diet.

Then on March 22nd, I started the Low Carb / High Fat diet, with an average of 1,800 to 2,000 calories per day.

Just ONE MONTH later, I have lost an additional 9.6 pounds (4.35 kg)!

I ate more calories, had a faster weight loss and the food tasted much better too! Can you believe it!?

So my weigh-in for 4 months is a total of 17.6 pounds (7.98 kg).

How are you doing - how much weight have you lost so far?
