Low Carbies

I was just thinking it was time to resurrect the old low-carb blog! Low and behold, there is a blog from my sis indicating the same thing. I have to say that my commitment has also been low and I don’t have a baby to blame it on. . . In May I got so over-whelmed with school and work that I put my scale in the garage and decided I could not focus on that for a while. Just like Misty said, big mistake! I got the scale out a few weeks ago and was shocked! Shocked! How could this happen!!! I have reintroduced some high-carb foods into my diets, but I don’t think I have gone “crazy” with it. Indulging is ok, once and a while! But, obviously I took that to the extreme. I am up 25 pounds! My clothes are tight, and its time to recommit to the program again. Sharing my recipes is one way to stay motivated. So here we go again!

It's been a while since I have posted on our Low Carbies Blog.   The main reason is because of this.... My sweet little baby boy! Thats right! I'm using him as an excuse.   Shortly after finding out I was pregnant.  The craving for carbs was unbearable! After over a year of not eating sugar or white flour, I started again. Now, I regret it.  I ended up with Gestational Diabetes and  I think that was even worse than dealing with the cravings! Well, my little man is now 3 months old  and its time to get back on track.  I really want to get healthy again, maybe not quite as strict. I'm on the search for new low carb recipes. Here's what I've been having for lunch lately! FRUITY CHICKEN SALAD! I've posted a chicken salad recipe before ( HERE ) But this one is a bit different.  Now forgive me because I didn't measure anything so its  based on your own desired amount.  Here are the ingredients.
