Yes, she has lost a lot of weight and I have a couple well though out
gifts, but she was just telling me tonight of this horrible craving she
has been having for Peanut Brittle, I was just going to try to find a
recipie for low carb peanut brittle if I could and stick it in her
gift, so if she wanted to she coudl make it. I thought of what you
said about not giving a food gift to a dieter after I posted it, but if
the recipe is out there I would still like to give it to her...but I
can see how if it is just sugar butter and peanuts that splenda
probably would not make it set up the same. I really did not know what
was in it because personally I hate it and don't ever eat it, must have
something to do with breaking a braces bracket on it when I was a
kid!
Anyway, she is my inspiration because she lost all of this weight with
low carb and I am really jealous so I am getting on the bandwagon for
the first time. I lost 40 pounds a year ago by just cutting back on
what I eat but I was so hungry and miserable that I cannot do that
again, I have kept it off. When I started I was going to lose 80
pounds, hit 40 and plateaued and then gave up...haven't gained any back
but I want to wear the size 6 and 8 that she is wearing now. We were
the same size in HS.
