Fat: 170 g 67%
Carbs: 37(10) g 6.5%

Weight: 187 (OUCH!) 1st thing in the AM

Thoughts:
- rocky start today; kept forgetting to track :daze: what I was eating. Out of practice, I think.
- have been very sloppy on the water intake lately, too, intake tracking has uncovered that dirty little secret; will have to buck up!
- the Somersizing aspect of my approach seems to have been reduced to a serious fondness for whipped cream and the occasional bit of fruit, WITHOUT the 'combining' aspect... I think this is hazardous so will try to keep that in focus. Retrain. Treats only, and only occasionally on Reg LC days.

Thoughts:
-today was a reminder to be more organized, but I suspect I'll get back in the swing of things fairly quickly.
-10-pin bowling right after work; hefting that 12 pounder through 3 fairly fast games was exhausting (but I was already tired, can't blame Stillman :D )

Just a quick note to let you know that I haven't given up on this so quickly....

This last week it's been the run up to the pre-Christmas orders, even MORE computer problems (I'm the fix-it gal, that's me), and for some completely unknown reason I decided to upgrade my MasterCook software (which I use for food logging and recipe development, of course)! Not to mention that nasty weenie little sinus cold I've beaten into submission BUT....

Well, enough whining. Should be able to finish up the missing days' reports in MasterCook 6 (which is a memory pig, should anyone want to know) by sometime late Monday... tomorrow... I keep SAYING that! :lol:

Yes indeedy, I'm reading this!! I was wondering if you had fallen off the edge of the western world.... or missing in action or somthin'....or just not wanting to post your menus for the rest of us to see. :p I'm really glad you haven't given up on the project (since you started this one!).

Hi Judi!

I thought I would post this here so it'll be easier for you to find.

1 1/4 C almond flour
1 C Splenda
1 egg
1/2 tsp almond flavor
1/4 C butter

Mix all ingredients well. Makes 24 balls, press flat on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 15-20 mins. 1.3g carb per cookie

Judi, I actually used slightly more butter than 1/4 C, when the cookies were down, they were surrounded by melted butter, so I just let them sit until the butter was absorbed back into each cookie. I think that's what made them more moist? They were GOOD and a low-carb staple in my house! DH actually likes these better than most cookies I make!! Go figure!!!

Oh, just remembering, throughout the many batches I have made, if you don't cook them too long, they hold together better. I think I only cooked mine for about 15 mins - when they were getting browner around the edges.

I hope these turn out for you!
