New England: Nuts are a fat and have some protein. They are low carb. Good idea on getting rid of the triggers like candy out of the house. If I keep seeing them they get tempting.
SewMam: I agree with Cap..huumuus is a complex carb, also has fats and protein..afternoon snack would work or at dinner..like one half cup beans or lunch.
Cap: I hope your daughter is feeling better. It is hard to break up your gym routine. I am now trying to change my routine and add 3 days of strength training per week instead of two. Your oatmeal with almonds and apples sounds delicious.
Momto2cs: Bikini and flat stomach after 2 c sections..Wow! That is wonderful. Plus congrats on the 145. You are inspirational. I had 3 c sections and my stomach is not quite flat..but I am working on those muscles.
2Ride.. Good luck on your agility trial with Red Dog. I hope it is not raining today! Do you like your new haircut? Thanks for the offer on the tea!!! I am so enjoying it. It is a safe way to get the needed chocolate taste!
