Atkins and Low Carb Weight Loss
Monday Feb 28 CARb roundup
got back from visiting my DD and family and had to spend the weekend recovering. going again this week for another few days so will be MIA again from wed-Sat.
had an easier time with the kids snacks...I made sure to take some low carb and wls friendly snacks for me to offset theirs. I always take my own snacks and food bit this time I went little farther and when I knew they were going to have pnut butter and jelly sandwiches,I was ready with my wasa cracker with pnut butter and AllFruit on it. Made their options less enticing since I had my own comparable item.

L peanuts 6.1
S home made beef jerky 5

Interested in low-carb nutrition? Thinking of trying Atkins? Want to try high-fat and/or high-protein eating? Whether or not you have had (or are thinking about) WLS http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/atkins/
I buy London broil or flank steak and ask the butcher to cut if thin for jerky.
I marinate it in some soy sauce,worschester sauce,garlic for a couple of hours or overnite or what ever time I have.
I have a dehydrator so I lay each piece out flat on the racks making sure not to let them touch each other. Dry them for 8-12 hours and they are ready.
If you don't have a dehydrator you can do the same thing in the oven with the pieces on a broiler pan. dry them on 200 degrees overnight.
