Losing weight thanks to more protien!

[babbs3772 1]

I am happy to report I have lost 2lbs in the past 4 days, I have been upping my Protein, eating a ton of veggies and some fruit - no breads due to them getting stuck!

173.5 and today 171.5, I can't wait to break the 170's finally. I feel good, clearer, healthier, my skin is clearing up and I have energy!

I agree, I lost 30 pounds in 2 months and I was going protien crazy. Like 70grams a day...

i can remember losing 30 lbs in less than 2 months. that was years ago. would you be so kind as to tell me a daily intake of foods. i have been in a plateu for over a year and am back on low carb. been there 2 days. and are you exercising. i started back on tread mill yesterday. walked a mile. yahhhh!!!

I'm new to the No Carb way as well ..... I also can't do just liquids. in fact, i can't do ANY liquids!! I drink tons of Water , and love my morning coffee, but shakes? smoothies? Protein Drinks? No Thank You !! I could never drink a meal... it doesn't work for me at all. I gag , to be blunt. I never set out to be a No carber, but since most bread, Pasta and rice get caught or stuck, i really dont have much choice. I do, however, get carbs in other forms, so technically i'm an Occasional Carber :-) dairy, sugar, etc...

What are some of your favorite foods that you fill up on? I LOVE fruit, but cant eat much of it any more :-( I'm also limited on the Veg that i can digest, which really stinks, as i actually DREAM about veggies! lol

As far as meat, I like Rare steak, Fried / Broasted chicken ( Dark Meat ), Chicken Strips, and ALL seafood. I can eat Lamb Chops on occasion, but not crazy about pork, except for Ham and Bacon ( go figure )

Thought ? Suggestions? :-D

I stocked up on Protein this last shopping trip...chicken, tuna, eggs, cheese, stuff for chilli, and Protein shakes.

are there any high Protein Snacks that anyone can recommend?

how'bout high protein sweets?...I make vital wheat gluten flour walnut Cookies with Equal and Splenda Brown sugar...they are pretty yummy...

Bob's Red Mill Vital Wheat GLUTEN Flour

serving size:1/4 cup (3/4 cup used for batch of cookies)

23 grams protein per serving of flour

6 grams carbs per serving of flour

blend flour, 1/2 tsp baking soda, 1/2 tsp vanilla, 1 cup walnuts, 1 egg, unsweet applesauce or 1/4 cup butter, 8 pkts Equal & some Splenda brown sugar to taste & bake @ 350 for 10 minutes...

I do best when I focus on Protein first. If I get. Enough protein in, like 70 grrams, I don't feel hungry & I have more energy. Like Premiere shakes from costco as a meal substitute or as a snack. Also, eggs, tuna, lean hamburger, greek yogurt, lean steak. Isopure drinks too. Fat free cottage cheese and milk. I add fresh fruit. Proteins seem to really help me not have cravings.

Hello, that is a great weight loss, sorry but I am a bit confused as just starting to get back into low carb, is 70 grams about 2 t bone steaks or could you give me a rough idea in meat that 70 grams would be? thanks so much.
