General Discussion / Re: OK, I am back...for real
« on: January 12, 2013, 12:31:50 AM »
Thanks everyone! This is a totally new way of cooking for me so I am glad that there are tons of recipes on the forum. Tried the chicken marinara tonight, didnt have noodles but it was yummy with out it. Tomorrow we are going to try our hand at the cauliflower pizza. 
I do have one question though....I really want to make a cheese cake this weekend, and I'd love to put something other than strawberries or blueberries. Any suggestions? Also, I make a wonderful Brazilian black bean stew, that typically we eat with rice and Kale. I dont mind chucking the rice, and kale is good for us, but what of the black beans?

I bought the book 2 years ago, and read it 4 times, but just couldn't get my head in the game. I was so busy trying to learn how to be a home school mom, and still work. Then last year I got married to my guy of 8 years, and really had "intentions" of doing FTS before the wedding, but it never happened. So here we are in 2013, and now I am finally ready. I guess it takes me a long time to commit 
And my husband, who has never done any kind of food change/ diet, is doing it with me. Of course he only has maybe 15 lbs to lose where as I have about 80 
We started 4 days ago, He has already lost 9lbs, and I have lost 5. And I feel better, I have even been working out! This a totally new way of cooking for me, and I have had carb/sugar withdrawl, but Im in! ...Also have to say, I made Dougs pork chops and cauli mash tonight, my 7 yr old was grubbin it down! That was sooooo good! Better make more next time, because there were no left overs

General Discussion / started 5 days ago...
« on: February 08, 2012, 11:16:02 AM »
I started 5 days ago and have only lost 2 lbs. I am not eating over 20 carbs and on some only got to 15. I don't want to have to go so low in my carbs that I cant eat veggies 
Any ideas for me? The only thing I can think after reading over a lot of this forum, is that SF candy I have been eating once a day. That and maybe I need to eliminate my evening snack of pork rinds. Sigh, I really need this, I am 220 and 36 yrs old. My mom is diabetic and I don't want to go that route. Also I want to be a healthy beautiful bride in May. Any suggestions are most valued, thanks

General Discussion / ugh. What gives?
« on: February 05, 2012, 11:57:30 PM »
I have had a headache now for the last 2 days! 
Is this a side effect of not eating sugar? I am not liking this. But on a positive note, I have not been feeling hungery, which is unusual for me.

thank you all for the support. Lucky for my fiance, he is thin already, but for me it is an uphill battle. I have now read the book twice, and will read it again if I need to.!
I do have a couple of questions: #1 is tapioca flour and OK substitute? And what about black beans?

So I bought the book 2 days ago and read it the same day. I started FTS yesterday. My fiance says to me when he picked up the book..."isn't this just like Atkins?" That being said I reviewed all the failed diets/lifestyles that didn't work or that I couldn't stick to. Sigh, I am getting married in May, I want to be healthy and feel beautiful. But I am scared...
