 I ran across this on lowcarbfriends.com and it's a little different with the addition of a little splenda and  a dash of salt. I haven't tried them yet, but plan to this weekend! 

3 large eggs
1 pkg Splenda
dash of salt
pinch of cream of tartar
3 ounces cream cheese (not Tbsp!) Do not soften!

Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Separate the eggs and add Splenda, salt, and cream cheese to the yolks. Use a mixer to combine the ingredients together. In a separate bowl, whip egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff (if you're using the same mixer, mix the whites first and then the yolk mixture). Using a spatula, gradually fold the egg yolk mixture into the white mixture, being careful not to break down the whites. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray and spoon the mixture onto the sheet, making 6 mounds. Flatten each mound slightly.

Bake about 30 minutes (You want them slightly softer, not crumbly). Let cool on the sheet for a few minutes, and then remove to a rack and allow them to cool. Store them in a bread sack or a ziplock bag to keep them from drying out.

I have the last laugh in my house.  I'm within close proximity to goal (25 lbs to go with plastic surgery done on 3/3 to remove 15-20 lbs of excess skin),  Yet now,  my doctor calls me skinny and tells my husband that he has to lose weight.

 Too hard to hide the bodies!

Though I bet they could be rendered into tasty low-carb snacks!

OK, no caffine headache / low carb headache killer today. I drank so much crystal light and herbal tea that I may float out to sea!!!! Nevertheless, still chugging on.
