Eating carbs stimulates your appetite, so a low carb diet actually works as a natural appetite suppressant. This always amazes me because I can put away some serious food. But the minute I start eating low carb, I am literally shocked at how little I seem to eat…

Do you find yourself more motivated to lose weight when there’s something coming up, or what keeps you exercising and eating healthy – even when you don’t feel like it??

The minute I opened the menu I felt the cravings creep up on me. I took a deep breath, ordered water to drink and asked the waitress to go ahead and take the rolls (away, far far away, lol). That’s one of the perks of eating out alone. You don’t have to smell or see anything on your table…

I woke up freakishly fat yesterday. It just happens sometimes. Surely you’ve had a fat day yourself? Of course I stepped straight on the scales and it was confirmed. I was weighing close to five pounds over normal. Lovely…

I’m a lot more limited now until I can get out and about on my own again, and of course I can’t cook. I do good to make something quick and simple to eat, but any real cooking is out…

Double Up! Low Carb Money-Saving Tip…

http://www.travelinglowcarb.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/2013-01-24_12-31-18_376-190x107.jpg

A quick tip for you when eating out, or specifically when ordering low carb fast food. I wish I had figured this one out a long time ago! Most of the time you’ll probably grab a sandwich and just ditch the bun. For example…

 

Fun Low Carb Lunch at Applebee’s

http://www.travelinglowcarb.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/2013-01-23_13-20-07_639-190x107.jpg

Absolutely delicious!! The entire meal was maybe 10 net carbs total (guesstimating based on their nutrition facts – and the fact that I didn’t eat the carrots, and ordered my salad without croutons). I couldn’t even finish it all, so I…

 

Treadmill Tricks & Drive-Through Shopping

Hilarious! And THIS is the reason those calorie counters on your exercise machines are completely useless. There’s no way they can count what you’re REALLY doing on the treadmill…

I wasn’t able to eat both of them – more like one and 1/3 of the other. Which is funny to me because I used to eat the whole burger, bun and all, plus the fries too! But I find that I have a much lighter appetite when I’m eating low carb…

Saturday night I went to a fun get-together where there was a huge spread and good drinks. Dinner consisted of party foods like hot wings, meatballs, cucumbers, cheeses, lil smokies, etc – plus a few beers. And there might have been some whiskey & moonshine involved… ;-)

Most low carbers cook A LOT, and share awesome low carb recipes, even. I rarely cook at all, although I keep threatening to get back in the kitchen (lol). It’s different when you’re single though, and usually eating alone…

On Wednesday every single meal consisted of low carb fast food. The scales are slowly but consistently moving down, and I’m loving it!

I weighed in this morning at 162.6, and while that’s only a pound or so lost (I was fluctuating up to 164) it happened in just 48 hours – and I can really feel even that small difference!
