Day 6 and I have made it yeah.
My hubby got us a new car today, when he got home we took a drive in the country and we took our granddaughter fishing at a nearby lake... by the time we left everyone was starving, he got him and my granddaughter ice creams, but I said NO, than we called Bob Evans and ordered take out, I got the grilled Chicken, squash and salad. By the time we got home and ready to eat, I was feeling badly as so hungry, but once I had my low carb meal I feel great now. So thankful I stayed on course! another victory!
Need to find some type of snack to keep in my purse for emergencies when we have to be gone so long.
I have been looking at all the recipes, wow, I am amazed how much we CAN have in variety. Never enjoy cooking much, but now looking forward to learning to cook some of these recipes. :)

KFAITH you are doing great! You have what doug calls the "want to" :) I keep nuts in my car,protein bars(1 or 2 carbs check labels) and a bag of Josephs pitas (4 carbs from the whole thing,half will fill you up)from walmart. With the pita if I can't get home to eat I can grab a burger or some deli meat and cheese and have a sandwich. ;)

one day at a time kfaith. I never want you to be hungry so pre-planning is very important. Beef Jerky in your purse is a great choice, I see Umpa mentioned nuts and protein bars but be very careful with nut portions and carb counts on protein bars. Other choices include a can of sardines....don't grimace their really terrific, keep a package of GG brancrisp bread in your purse or car to put them on. http://www.brancrispbread.com/ (http://www.brancrispbread.com/) Keeping a jar of Beanit Butter in the car to spread on GG is also a good choice- http://www6.netrition.com/dixie_beanit_butter_page.html. (http://www6.netrition.com/dixie_beanit_butter_page.html.) Dried edamame is very high in protein, low in carbs and filling- http://www.seapointfarms.com/products.html (http://www.seapointfarms.com/products.html)
Finally when your out and about the deli is your friend, stop at any market and you can pick up a few slices of cheese and a few slices of ham or corned beef to make up some quick deli roll ups...heck they even offer free mustard.
THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX ;)

Doug and Umpa You all are so awesome, I have no clue where you find the time to dedicate to replying to "all" of us. My friend said it is probably just someone else you all hire sitting at a computer somewhere, but I told her I do not think so I think it is REALLY Doug and really Umpa. ;D
I made notes of what you mentioned and yep I can do that for sure!

;D ;D ;D Oh it's us for sure. Umpa and I enjoy our coffee every morning in bed with our laptops sharing our mornings with our FTS family. Each and every member of our family is very important to us 8)

Lord knows I have so MUCH to loose, but full speed ahead , this old girl is gonna reach her goal!!!!!!! I will get my life back and I will be able to walk with my granddaughter on the beach next summer !!!!
My son in law has a birthday today, we are having pizza and cake for him tonight, but I am making me a FTS pizza to eat while they all have their real one and I am not even going to smell that cake, I told my hubby when he picked up the cake to pick me up a bag of that Russell Stover sugar free candy you all been talking about and that I'd have one of them instead.
