General Discussion / Happy with first week!
« on: February 06, 2012, 09:43:47 AM »
I was down 3.4lbs this week normally I would want more but I am down 12lbs since New Year Day, I did a mixture of different diets and was hungry all the time. I finally pulled out my yellow FTS book out again and looked on the forum again and thought to myself why am I not on this diet? I have not been hungry this week like other diets I Love this lifestyle! Thank you for this Forum and the support everyone! Thank you Doug and Umpa for starting the whole thing up!

That's the same one I have TooSweet I use 2 coffee spoon fulls( the brown plastic ones) I have about 6 filters so you don't always have to wait to cool it before using it again.I just buy one every now and again over the last 3 years.

Hi Alex I will for sure make you a coffee. I like the large size which is 9oz I think some mini only make med and small and some make all 3 sizes I also use my filter and use my own a lot.I buy my K-cups at Cosco here in Canada so they are cheaper, I like decaf and my husband doesn't so it is nice in the evening to make my own.If we have a lot of people over I just use my reg big pot.

Hi Alex I love my Keurig Machine because there are more K-Cup to pick from or you can buy a K-cup filter and use your own coffee.There is a joke between my sister and I, we say when we die we want to be buried with our coffee machine in case they don't have any in heaven lol. My sister even bought a mini one to take when we go to a wedding up north to us, we got joining rooms so we can share her pot we just have to bring our own K-cups.

I like FTS not too many Authors bother with you after you buy their books like Doug and Umpa do.I love the forum the video recipes the support the whole FTS family.I always use to want to know difference question after buying so many other book and had no one to ask, now I ask and I get a answer within hours.I love you can have your cake and eat it too(low carb of course)

General Discussion / My red book is in!!!!
« on: February 04, 2012, 09:24:45 AM »
I just received my red book yesterday and I was very excited to read it, I have the yellow one I bought a few years ago which I gave to my daughter so between both books we're good to go. I love the pic's and the success stories at the front of the book. I love the recipes and can't wait to try them.

I hurt my knee back in April and it has really helped, as soon as it gets nicer here I will also like to add a walk with my sister-in-law in the evening.I have to be watching a good show when I'm on my bike or I'm looking at that clock steady lol.I'm also in that menopause stage in my life I didn't realize that exercise will help that thanks for that info.

General Discussion / checking labels
« on: February 02, 2012, 10:24:55 PM »
I was grocery shopping today and I decided to check labels on all kinds of things, I couldn't believe there is carbs in almost everything.The only thing that didn't have carbs was meat and some cheeses, now I know why so many people are overweight.I can see that for the rest of our lives we are really going to have to watch for them.
