I confess! I've never done a threesome with Ben and Jerry, however, I have been very tempted to try the Chubby Hubby and the Chunky Monkey. Our Wal-mart doesn't have the La Carb but it's probably just as well b/c I really need to give up low carb treats as part of my plan. I have indulged in far too many Endulge bars and that's probably why I haven't lost an ounce in like forever. I need to cut out the lowcarb peanut butter cups, too. I mean, like who can eat just one? Certainly, not me. So, besides giving up the lowcarb treats, the other part of my plan is to eat more veggies and salad. I love veggies and salad, but they aren't quite as convenient to prepare as tearing open an Endulge bar.

Carol, it's a good thing that Makin' Whoopie isn't available in the B&J range in the UK, or I'd definitely go Loopy Loo with that one

Definitely agree we'd be ahead of the game if we stick to low carb/high protein whoopie - we'd certainly be ahead in the exercise stakes, lol!

Gretchen, I just love ice cream so much, that I really need to keep well away from it Unfortunately, we don't have many low carb products available in the UK and certainly not any low carb ice cream but it's probably just as well because I wouldn't be able to stop eating it.

I have tried making my own low carb version at home (though it does tend to go solid, like a block of ice) and even then it's too much temptation for me Oh well, perhaps one day I'll be able to control myself!

Hey there, Maggie! Sure... if we all just suck it in a bit, we can make more room in here! It's good to see you hopping on board! You sound like you have a lot of enthusiasm... which is something I'm lacking today... so I'm planning on tapping into yours!

I'm sucking it in too - I know it's hard to tell!

Welcome Maggie - sure - we can fit you on - your goals look great -- I particlularly like the 'smile' one - come to the thread and you'll be laughing each day wiht any luck!!!

Good to have you aboard - c'mon girls give her a hand up!!

Yes we do have 2 resident hunks who will visit from time to time
Atkid - the georgeous but mysterious forum superhero and the knowledgable and extrememly witty Rustykins with the good knees!!!

Bur feel free to bring along any others!!!

Gretchen - glad you are pulling us back to a LC focus - goodonya!

Yes I have been good today - tonight may be a bit hard - but I'll see what I can do!

Today kept under 25carbs and concentrated on low salt - not enough water - but I can remedy that - I'll just go and drink 2 gallons now - then I'll looke like Ela's glug glug fish face!

I more sleep until fessup time!!!

Did you see that 591 people have checked us out!!!!

Fess up Carol CA!!!!

I am dobbing!!! I found this on the forum - original quote by CCA
talking about her daily intake.


Quote:
Mine today was disgraceful! Included fudge, too many macadamias, almonds, pork rinds and whatever else was handy. Fiddle Dee Dee.... Tomorrow's another day!


"Fiddle dee dee - Tomorow is another day" -- Why SCARLETT ??? -- tomorrow is NOT another day -- TODAY is another day!! I'll give you a little leeway cos it's almost new year - but honey Fudge??? Get rid of that evil carbage - it'll killlya !!! Now excuse me while I move all these chocolate wrappers - I can hardly type......

Nothing much gets past me (or Jude). Hope tomorrow is a better day for you.

Candy wrappers!? You crack me up. Yeah... today was my worst day this entire year! I've been rather saintly all year... except for a few minor slip-ups. But today... LORDY LORDY! I'm possessed or something! It was a horrible day... and will most definitely try harder tomorrow. I don't know HOW it could be worse! There I did it! Gone and jynxed myself!

Not only am I disappointed in myself.. but I'm all bloated... and my bladder is bursting! I've been good about water today. The word for today was CONSUMPTION!

Just fly on over here and tie me up, Wendye!!!

...LMAO...you're gonna be floatin' by the time the New Year gets here my Wendye friend...

I think tomorrow the 31st at 9:01am here... it's 12:01 January 1st, (New Years Day) for you???

... I'm starting Atkins induction at the end of New Years Day...only 'cause I'm making a fabulous soup for New Years Day that symbolizes "wealth and health" and the soup has (black-eyed peas) in it! Everything else in it is low-carb, but, once I start "induction", I won't be having any illegals like that. They will all be banned from my house, including the pecans and walnuts.

I'll be rev'd up and ready to "go for it" on Thursday morning! I have appointed 2003, MY YEAR, and plan to meet my goal during it! I will set mini-goals as I go along...(the 1st one soon to be determined)!

Be back later, I love this thread and all who post here...Keep On Keeping On Gang!

WELCOME LISA and MAGGIE, glad you're here!

Note: had to edit to say Hey to CCA, who was posting the same time that I was...HEY GIRLFRIEND!

HeyJude! Always good to read your posts... and Friendye Wendye's! I've heard about that soup you mentioned. Quite the tradition, I guess. I'm going to TRY to start tomorrow. Yoda would have a fit if he heard me say that, huh.
