carbs low, - weight rising. Help

Quark is a Ferengi (scumbag dealer!)

me so sad!

not so much as fancied a hula hoop since I found the love of my nut life (macadamia, quelle surprise?!) ... but my son threw a hissy fit today about the (opened) packet I gave him and as much as I normally throw away things I shouldn't eat, I couldn't bring myself to put them in the bin ... and they "might" have survived the 6 hours until his dad got home if I'd clipped them ... but after the hissy fit I couldn't be bothered!

As to ribs ... mine are still awol but I have reduced the number of chins I own dramatically ... as well as losing a cup size on the "boys"

Keep inspiring me!

actually, apart from fantastic BS and a smug feeling that just wont go away, despite friends being sick and tired of me banging on about my diet, all I come up with are negatives!!!
- Slim enough to shop in 'normal' shops, but now so much choice I can't cope.
- always used to look younger, now my skinny wrinkles are giving me away. (vain, me?)
- still got my fat thinking head on
- new clothes costing a fortune
er, and I'm not really skinny just yet, just being annoyingly smug, again.

My body is still doing one very off-putting thing though (metfartin' aside) when I'm hungry, I get the sort of food cravings I used to get, it's the only way I know I'm actually hungry, I don't think I have ever really been hungry. It's the only time I have to back away from the evil that are carbs.

One more story.
Ate at Zizzis whilst in London at the w/e. I asked for a bit of salmon and a mixed salad with a caesar dressing. Please.

waiter. "we don't do that'
me. 'yes you do, its on the menu, just in different places'
waiter. "errrrr"
me. "look. Just fry a bit of salmon, bung it on a plate with a bit of salad and pour a bit of dressing over. Or a big dollop of garlic butter"
waiter. "errrrr"
me. "salmon, salad, dressing. Gottit?"
Waiter has now wandered off to chat to the 'chef'
My plate arrives with a bit of salmon, crispy on the outside and just cooked in the middle, next to a handful of dry rocket leaves.

Thank Ged it wasn't me footing the bill.

sitting on hands, not going to do politically incorrect telephone directory joke, just not gonna ... nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn ... oh the effort!
 
Ferengi!!!
Thats the b*gger.

When I eat, I look like a Ferengi

all I can think about it playing with Ferengi ears ...
 
oh so that's an improvement! under 10 cho hahaha!

A Ferengi is an alien species from Star Trek (I'm a bit sad buuuut I didn't bring it up first lol)

go google quark the fenegi and see just how lovely that are !!natch!!

I'm quite happy with my macanuts actually just didn't / couldn't put the hulas in the bin :O

Aaaaah now I see!

Know what you mean about not putting things in the bin, but I was soooooo good today. I cut the kids a slice of gorgeous, moist, toffee cake and refrained from licking the knife. ****, I can't find a smilie with a halo on top lol.

hmmmmmmmmmmm ... licking the knife - oh yeah ... my kid loves toast for brekkie with either strawberry jam (have licked the knife and it tasted of nothing but sugar so that has cured me of strawberry jam dreams!) and chocolate spread - thus far have been able to refrain from knife licking in the nutella jar /// but don't know how much longer I can possibly NOT!

For Sue
Crozzled is my owm word for bacon that's crisp and brittle. the ONLY way to eat streaky bacon. Catch it just before it burns. DELICIOUS.
 

Will this one do?


or this one?

Must remember that word,Hana for next time I nearly burn the bacon! :lol: :lol:
 
any little witchy ones Sue, oh giver of the smilies?
 
Well, it's carried on like that. Stall, down, up, stall but the good news is I now weigh 14st 13lbs. No doubt it will go up before it drops lower but I'm entirely satisfied that low-carbing produces this weight loss pattern.
Just recovering from a very nasty and unusual bug and have not eaten for two days. This should be interesting!

My Aunt Mildred stayed at Aunt Mary's house during the strawberry harvest, & made the jam without pectin. The children LOVED it. They poured off & drank the sugar syrup & lined up the strawberries on the bread ....

In the years to come, Mary refused to use Mildred's recipe :wink:
 

Well congratulations on your success and sympathies on the bug!
