Hi fellow low-carbers, I discovered some hidden carbs yesterday, so I think I need to be more aware of everything I put in my mouth since I am shooting for less than 20 carbs per day...not "Net" carbs, but total carbs. Each day I take 3 calcium supplements, 500 mg each. They are in the form of a "sugar-free" caramel chew. Well...it turns out that each of those supplements has 5 gr of carbs, adding 15 to my daily total. Not good.
Am I being obsessive? Maybe, but I really want my Low Carb High Fat experiment to work, so I have to do it right to really know. I have 27 lbs to go to be in the normal BMI range. At least I'm not obese anymore.
I think that's all I have to say today, I think of stuff later in the day, but usually don't get around to adding it.

Awww - calcium chews have 5 carbs each???? Yikes. Good for you with the 20 carbs a day goal. I dont know that I could do that - I need the fiber in fruit and veggies. I am excited that you are in the "overweight" range now - I understand what you mean. Have a great date tonight!
|
Yep...and I take a fiber supplement and don't count the carbs in it. I'm not THAT obsessive. I wish I was more excited about the date. Nice guy, but meh...

LOL - I know what you mean with "meh.." I was just about "dated out" and ready to be done with the whole thing when I met my husband.

I'm not there yet, being the optimist that I am, but I can see it happening at some point. I keep putting myself out there, get bored or get to know them and don't like what I learn, and then I'm done and on to the next one. Sigh...but now I'm pretty excited about the applewood smoked bacon that I'm cooking for breakfast.

LOL - bacon....ahhh, a fond memory!

As painful as it can be at times . . . You won't find a great guy unless you put yourself out there to meet one ;) It's almost an oxy-moron!! I don't even know if that's how it's spelled!!! I hope you have a great time ;)

Ohh I'm out there! And I've given that advice to my friends. Maybe I'm just too damn picky, but I don't want to settle for anything less than a wonderful relationship.
