Sunflower Seeds
« on: June 13, 2012, 04:35:44 PM »
I love sunflower seeds and all this time I haven't been eating them because I thought they were too high in Carbs. So this morning my husband is eating sunflower seeds and I was harassing him about the carbs. So he proceeded to show me the count and the full bag of unshelled seeds had only four carbs. I was shocked! Have you all been eating sunflower seeds this whole time? I am thrilled to have a fun new snack.

Oh yes!!  I love them Sherri.    They are great on salads too.  It's weird because some brands are really low in carbs and others have a little more.  I guess it's all in the way they are seasoned...?    I agree with Owensmath....I like Katary's crackers made with them too!  They are great with spinach dip!   ;)

Hubby is super good at FTS now. He is 2 pounds away from his goal of losing 45 pounds. He looks great and feels good too. My son has lost 35 and has never had more self esteem in his life. My broker at my office started FTS two weeks ago and is down 14 pounds, and our office manger started FTS two and half weeks ago and is down 20 pounds.

We are just FTS crazy here in Orlando.  :) :)
