Confession is good for the soul !

HIJACK!  I love your new ticket - it's so seasonal!

YEP, bad carbs....but ohhhhh so good.
I am finding lately that the little bit of coffee that I am trying to drink to get going but hate, is driving my blood sugar up! this morning, I only had my protein drink with the 2 carbs in it and the coffee with a 1/2 cup of fat free milk....Sugar jumped to 344.  go figure!! No cheating...no other carbs other than the little in the milk......That is it.
Sooooooooooo no crackers either I guess.....Sure I can still have them, until Jan but all carbs are like poison to me lately. So I guess I will just x them out of my diet too now. DETOX!! 

Thank you so the carb warning!  It's good to be reminded how evil they are!

Hope your arm is getting better every day!

Thanks to all who also confessed -- it made me feel beter.  Tonight i mave a low carb cake for my b-day tomorrow.  It will be interesting to see how it tastes.  It's made with ground almonds and soy, splenda, etc.  I'll let you know.  BTW, it's chocolate !

HAH-My LO Carb chips arrived today.  Tostitos, be gone!  (Well, I'll give a few to the parrot-he doesn't need the salt, but he likes them).

Hey Deb I got my protein cereal and chips  yesterday!  Awesome cereal for breakfast this morning with 18 carbs and 13 carbs in the Braums skim milk to boot.

sniff sniff sniff.......I'm still on liquids/mushies today.......sniff sniff sniff.

What's the nut info on those?  How lo carb is lo carb?

I'll check and get back to you.  My focus is really on protein-and there isn't enough there to call the chips a "meal"....they are still a snack or a side dish.

Lynette, here is the info I posted about Kay's naturals on Monday after the walk...you were pre-occupied with surgery.  their items are 50% off right now.  I ordered and had some shipped.  They sure help when you have the "munchies".  To go their site and you can see the nutritional values.  Very low carb.

Melting Mama posted this on the main board today.  I tried the protein cereal in skim milk and oh my go**** was good.  It reminded me of the pre-sweetened cereal and was so nice for a change.  I thought  you guys might want to check their website out and at 50% off!!!

"Kay's Naturals snacks and cereals are made with a better balance of soy protein, fiber, carbohydrates, and good fats, our products are delicious and uniquely satisfying snacks and cereals that can actually help curb the appetite, whether at home, at work, or at play."

Kay's Naturals has given a great deal of thought to the all-natural ingredients of its products.

• PROTEIN: By combining Soy protein with other proteins from whole grain cereal sources, we were able to get a complete amino acid profile, thus making Kay's snacks & cereals a complete source of protein. A single serving contains the same amount of protein as two slices of packaged sandwich meat. Researchers have found that soy protein, when part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.

• FIBER: The fiber used is pea-fiber, making the high protein more digestible. This helps to prevent complications associated with high protein diets. Carbohydrates: Kay's Naturals has striven for balance between carbohydrates (12-14 grams per serving, 1-3 grams of which are fiber) and protein (10 grams) for a healthier product.       

• WEIGHT LOSS AND/OR MAINTENANCE: Due to the substantial protein and fiber content along with the low fat aspect of most of our products, they are very filling while being an effective means of assisting in weight loss and/or maintenance programs."

What are MM's favorite Kay's Naturals products? 

• Crispy Parmesan Protein Chips
• ALL varieties of Protein Cereal, they are all delicious!
• White Cheddar Kruncheeze
• Cinnamon Toast Pretzel Sticks

Melting Mama eats most of the snacks and cereals straight out of the bag or box, and the kids like the cereal with milk of course, but you can also use them in recipes.  She has used Protein Chips in casseroles and as bread crumbs for meat dishes, and they work really well.  Try Lemon Herb on Pork and Chicken, and Crispy Parmesan in Meatballs and on Chicken Parmesan!  The Chili Nacho Cheese Protein Chips make AWESOME high-protein nachos.
