Has anyone ever put off going to an annual check up w/ their doctor because they didn’t feel like being weighed? {raises hand} I’ve been avoiding the thyroid doctor for 5 months because of the dreaded scale. But, I went last Friday. I had boots on (knock off Ugg’s). So here’s the age-old dillema…do I [...]

Fat is getting a bad rap….again. Seriously, fat is like the new Britney Spears. Everytime you think fat has hit rock bottom and has no place to go but up, there it is on TMZ in ankle restraints getting hauled off to the booby hatch. Fat needs to seriously start getting it’s act together if it [...]
Ok, I had planned this whole entire post about how I totally can’t stick to anything and keep wanting honeybuns and have just about had it and am about to blame it all on perimenopause hormones effect weight loss. As a over- highly educated professional, step one in a blog post like this is always googling [...]
I think I’m going to loop this all day Sunday. If I’m heading for a second helping of the cheesy potatoes (or first), for the peeps or cadbury eggs (which really don’ttaste that good…admit it), the cheesecake, the fluffy orange whipped jello thing my mother-in-law makes (she makes a green one too), the sweet potato [...]
Welcome to another Carbie Doll edition of low maintenance low carb cooking. This week, I tackled another roast (we like roasts…they’re super easy, super yummy, super filling, and super leftover producery). Mine is a version of the traditional Yankee pot roast using venison shoulder. You can use chuck or beef shoulder as well. Keep in mind, if you’re doing one [...]
Welcome to another Carbie Doll edition of low maintenance low carb cooking. If you’re like us, you’re on the go and want to keep things low (carb that is). The Carbie Dolls are big fans of crockpot cooking. This week, I tried a modified version of this scrumptious pork roast. Here’s what you’ll need: 1 medium sized [...]
Last year, I was introduced to the Paleolithic Diet. Some of you may have already heard of it. The idea is, you should eat whatever Cavemen would eat. In other words, hunter gather-y foods or things that do not require factory processing and must die before you eat them (vegetables, fresh meat etc.). Today, I’d like play devil’s [...]
My cooking objectives are twofold. First, I need stuff that’s easy and idiot-proof. Second, I need stuff that’s low carb. Recipes that fit this criterion are harder to find than you might think. Lately, I’ve been making heavy use of my crockpot. Crockpotrecipes101.com has some great ideas. I’ve taken one of their low carb* recipes [...]
We all have our weaknesses and vices. Maybe yours is chocolate chip cookie dough? Krispy Kreme donuts? Peanut butter by the spoonful? An entire box of palate-shredding Apple Jacks cereal? My vice you ask? The one that renders me senseless, saps my inner resolve and forces me to do its bidding at the mere sound [...]
