Hey...look like we tried to post the tread at the same time...
well.. I messed up last night... stayed up most of the nigh****ching movies... yea... stupid... but activated the netflix and really wanted to see couple of movies... crazy..
So - since I was up most of the night - I ate... and I ate a lot of high carbs food (*they keep me awake...). My carbs for today are messed up (when I count the carbs from midnight...lol) but they are OK if I "forget" about the night. lol.
Went for a walk this morning - so most likely I burned at least 30% of the carbs "I inhaled" last night.
Getting ready to go on a few days trip - and I know I will be very well under control..
Today eats (starting at morning)
coffee + almond milk
same
protein shake
pot roast (just meat)
cheese sticks as snacks. (going to a movie after work).
late dinner: liver + green beans

Interested in low-carb nutrition? Thinking of trying Atkins? Want to try high-fat and/or high-protein eating? Whether or not you have had (or are thinking about) WLS http://www.obesityhelp.com/group/atkins/
Okay -- how are you making almond milk? I'm dying to know -- it sounds yummy!

it is yummy and so ridiculously easy!
1 cup raw almonds
2 cups filtered water---Soak overnight
Soaked almonds
6-8 cups fresh filteres water
Put half the almonds and half the water in a blender and whizz till you get tired of watching.
Strain the contents thru several layers of cheesecloth draped over a collander in a large bowl. (I lucked up and found an almond milk bag at a natural foods store once which I love)
Gently squeeze and drain all the liquid out. this is your almond milk. What is left in your cheesecloth is almond flour/meal. Use it in any way you would use store bought almond meal,but I keep mine in the freezer since it has no preservatives.
The milk is nothing like what you get in the store since it has no thickeners,etc. Using 8 cups of water will give you a half gallon . For a video tutorial go to you tube and search homemade almond milk there are several there.
good luck,
H
