I'm afraid this is one of those times when I REALLY needed a smiley face. I was kind of pulling your leg above and it didn't come across correctly.

Anyway, I looked at your journal and the very first thing that popped up was the crackers. Are you really eating crackers? Wheat seems to be such an allergen for low-carbers that most of us try to avoid it on sheer principle. As so many before me have said it - and more eloquently - those carbs could be better spent on fresh vegetables or even some berries. And, if you are just now thinking in your head that you don't WANT to give up your one little treat of wheat crackers - well, there you go. That's addiction, hon.

I wish you the best - better even than I wish for myself - but you have to want it, too.
