birdee, and starbucks has SOOOOOO many carbs. Even with my starbucks I stay under on calories, but those carbs kill me. They don't help my sugar cravings a bit either.

LOL!!! I know!!! What's the skinny lattees all about. I have seen them advertise, but I have never tried one, are they low in carbs? I sure hope so...If not....it'll be just a splurge day...BTW!!! Peppermint white chocolate Mochas are my favorites!!!! LOL!!!

Ok...Low Carbers does anyone worry about fat? My calories, carbs and Proteins are where they need to be....but my fat is a little high. Should I be concerned. Is there a range where fat should be....

I had cauliflower with cheese sauce and a steak and cheese sandwich(2 steak ums) with cheese...no bread.< /p>

Everything is OK with this meal as far as carb, calories, and Protein goes....just wondering about that fat?

Let me know your thoughs!!!

Thanks!

the ONLY value i worry about is carbs (and i do make sure i get in 60+ protein)... the others, i dont look at ...

[Oregondaisy 2,021]

I try to watch the fat. I don't go nuts counting fat grams but I will choose something that has lower fat even if it adds carbs, such as skim milk.

I am glad there is no star bucks here. The nurse at our support group is always saying that the people who have trouble are those that choose to drink their calories.

Today my plan is: Atkins bar for Breakfast

chicken salad for lunch

Protein drink for dinner

[Apples2 19]

B: 4 oz lean ham

L: 4 oz tuna/light mayo 2 tbls

My plan for dinner: 1/2 cup brocolli and pork loin

S: cottage cheese

The scale hasn't moved this week but it will (at least that's what I say when I'm talking to myself)
