Age 60. Height 5'6"
Starting date: 1/8/05
171/ 165 / 140 lb
Starting date LC 7/01 at 207lbs
Stopped losing on LC 11/01 at 165lbs
==========================================

So, to recap your sig, you're at exactly the weight you were over three
years ago. And on your new self-created diet plan, you lost an initial
six pounds in several days and have lost zero weight since.

How is this new plan then better than Atkins was? And when are you going
to acknowledge that you need to eat less and/or exercise more if you
intend to lose more weight?

Well if I couldn't lose on Atkins and 1200 calories a day, I figured
I'd try
something else after a 2 year stall LCing. My NP suggested I do
this and
it sounded great to me. But it seems the LC diet has *changed* on
this NG
from SUMPTUOUS meat based meals, to LC veggie meals. I wonder why?
CALORIES
perhaps? So Carmen, tell us, how much are YOU losing each week on
LC? ;-)

I hit goal in August 2000. I was able to do that after I realized
that calories count. I'm diabetic so I need to stay low-carb. Of
course the fact that calories count has been known and told in this
group for years. People hear what they want to hear. Hell, Roger
himself told you that calories count 2 years ago.
The group hasn't gone veggie. You're seeing what you want to see.

I looked back, and saw that *I'd* talked to you about calories way
back in 2001. You whinged at my detailed description of how to figure
out how many calories *you* needed by saying that the math was too
complicated. Jeez you've been telling your tale of stall woe for
almost 4 years now, and you still weigh what you did then. I found
some strangely familiar posts from you. I've got to wonder why you're
still here if low-carb/low-fat/low-cal or plain low-carb don't work
for you.

Oh, well, let me tell you about the sumptuous ribeye I had Wednesday
night. It was from the farmer's market and just absolutely delicious. It
was a little over what I'd normally have calorically (I'm trying to limit
to no more than 500 calories/meal), but since my other meals were
particularly light I splurged a little. Accompanying it was a quarter of a
head of cabbage. Doesn't sound all that appealing, but I tell you, that
purple cabbage, steamed in the microwave, dripping with artisanal butter,
also from the farmer's market, that was some fine eating. I still finished
the day under my calorie budget and I think I did pretty well
nutritionally as well.

I find that the *volume* of my food mostly comes from the veggies, but the
bulk of the calories comes from the meat and fats and oils.

They also added weight training to that to get to goal if I remember
correctly. Probably added more cardio too but I do not recall.

$$ Maybe it was. I'm not a mathematician. I took the calories
from the cans and packages of food I bought, added them up and got
my totals.
Why do you object to THAT? It's fast and easy.

You aren't truly stupid. You're being deliberately obtuse. You know
full well that's not what I was talking about. I was talking about
figuring out how many calories *you* needed to lose weight, not
figuring out how many you were taking in.

Jeez you've been telling your tale of stall woe for
almost 4 years now, and you still weigh what you did then.

$$ Yep!

A bit more reading and I see it's worse than I thought. You've been
posting/whining in ASDLC since 1998 for crying out loud!
And here's something funny: back then the story was that you gained
the weight after you had your second ovary removed. *Now* the story
is you were bedbound for a year and *that's* why you gained all the
weight. You've just been playing people and wasting their time.
That's uncool.

I found some strangely familiar posts from you. I've got to wonder
why
you're still here if low-carb/low-fat/low-cal or plain low-carb
don't
work for you.

$$ Since you claim you reached your GOAL weigh, why are YOU still
here?

As you were told in another post I'm a diabetic, and continue to
low-carb for the sake of my health.

I do believe you've wasted quite enough of my time.

Yum. Ribeye.
I had chicken breast - my favorite - with salsa and a salad. Chicken
breast is something I've never managed to get sick of. It can be
dinner every single night and I still just love it. Some weeks it
*is* dinner every single night. :-)
"Hi, my name is Carmen and I have a chicken breast jones." G

That way of having cabbage sounds good. Usually I just get the
shredded stuff and add some italian dresssing to it as a salad.

Take care,
Carmen

in my experience, there IS a lot of discussion about veggies here in
ASD-LC,(not more than meat) but i believe that is due to the fact
that so many of us are really enjoying eating them for the first
time in our lives!
