    This group gets quite a few posts from newbies who don't know what
    low-carb is, don't know how to do it, and want to continue eating all
    the things they ate before and still expect to lose weight.

    Not a "newbie", been postin to newsgroups since 96 and know what
    "low-carb" is, but thanks for splainin.

    Not knowing what low-carb is and not having the motivation to research
    it themselves is a sign of not wanting to do much work, and weight loss
    requires work. Wanting to eat all the same things they ate before is a
    sign of not wanting to sacrifice anything or change their lifestyle, and
    losing weight requires both of those as well.

    Can you lose weight while eating lowered carb breads? For some people,
    yes, for others, no.

    Yep. Never cut out carbs when I wanted to drop a few pounds. Just
    increased the exercise and cut down on the fats (cheeses, etc.) As far
    as carbs go, I lost weight in the past having spagetti several nights a
    week, with my own 'from scratch' sauce. The pasta was never a problem.

    However, I do love bread. And with low carb bread, I can make certain
    things I like that call for bread.

    Didn't need a lecture about it. I was looking for some better recipes
    than the ones I've collected. But again, thanks for the info. I'm sure
    you thought you were being helpful.

    Apparently some people here think you have to cut out ALL bread. I'm
    glad I don't have that problem.

    Now when they come up with a low carb pizza crust recipe I'll have my
    cake and eat it too. (excuse the pun)

    As a dairy eatin vegetarian, a good high fibre bread with flax seed and
    other nutritious grains is healthy and not something to be avoided.

    Personally, I think the low carb thing is a bit overdone by some.

    Quoted message said:

    The point isn't the bread, the pasta, the
    whatever, the point is the attitude. I resisted low-carb at first,
    because I thought "I just can't live without pasta!" This was before
    Dreamfields came out. I had to change my attitude. I had to decide
    what was _really_ important, eating pasta or being healthy.

    After a while, it became apparent that I didn't _need_ those carby foods
    at all. Sometimes I think low-carb versions of high-carb foods keep
    people in the mindset that they "need" those foods, that it's too hard
    to live without them. For others, I think those foods are an occasional
    treat that they can easily live without, but choose not to. They
    understand the risks of creating carb cravings or slowing weight loss,
    they're prepared for those risks, they've thought it through, and made a
    choice knowing full well what the consequences could be. I don't know
    which category you fall into, but if it's the first, then giving you
    recipes for low-carb bread wouldn't really be support would it? It
    would be enabling.

  2. No, but just as predictable as you calling me a "fatty".

    Is that anywhere near as predictable as a fatty, such as yourself, staying
    fat?

    As for JC - I knew the minute I opened this thread the first response
    would be from JC "Bread is not low-carb" - he is about as predictable
    as a trained chimp.

    Who are you talking to? You may be ignorant, so I will let you know that
    when you respond to a post in usenet, you need to quote the part of the
    post you're responding to, and the attribution, otherwise no one will
    know what you're talking about.

    If it's JC, he didn't insult you, and he's not ignorant. One of the
    things informed (not ignorant) people do when entering a newsgroup for
    the first time is to read the FAQ, and search Google Groups to see if
    your question has already been answered. If you'd done that research,
    you would have expected JC's response.

    You could post in here that figuring out how to change the oil in your
    car by yourself was a piece of cake, and JC would let you know that cake
    is not low-carb. It's no biggie, just his way.

    Now when they come up with a low carb pizza crust recipe I'll have my
    cake and eat it too. (excuse the pun)

    Rosattis is a pizza chain that offers a "Lower Carb Crust"
    pizza. Being wheat intolerant, I can tell for certain it
    does not have any wheat in it. I *suspect* it is soy
    based. I have no idea if they would part with their recipe
    but if you have a local one it might be worth asking. If
    you don't have a local one their corporate office might
    decide you'd make good advertising rather than a competitive
    threat.

    Soy based pizza crust isn't low carb. Yup, already got that.
    The menu does say lowER not just low. I get it sometimes
    because my manitenance quota is 100 so lowER is good enough
    for me at the moment.

  5. Thanks. I'll look into it and see what I can find. I noticed often that
    things often advertised as "low carb" don't have that fewer carbs than
    the regular item. They capitalize on the term to sell it. I always
    check the ingredients and compare.

    Soy flour has only 9 g. of carbs per quarter cup
    compared to:
    Oat flour : ~ 20 g. "
    whole wheat: 26 g. "
    Bread flour: 22 g.

    But problem with the soy is you can't just use soy flour in breads. It
    has to have a greater portion of other flour mixes. Many low carb
    recipes for bread at least, use some soy and oat flour with vital wheat
    gluten.

    The recipe I posted earlier uses oat flour and protein powder and is
    only about 60 carbs for entire loaf and you get about 16 slices per
    loaf, so each slice is less than 4 carbs. I also added a tablespoon of
    whole flax seeds. Next batch I plan to add a tablespoon of honey.

    I put spagettie sauce on a slice and top it with parmasean and cheddar
    and toast it. Gives me something 'like pizza' to satisfy my urge and is
    a nice treat at night.
    Haven't yet tackled making a real pizza crust. For now, this is pretty
    good.

  6. Personally, I think you are being rather judgemental. Different things work
    for different people. While you might not have to limit your carbs, others
    do. Most people here are working to find the right number for themselves.

  7. I didn't say I didn't "limit" my carbs. I said I didn't cut them out
    entirely AND I might add, I don't think anyone else has to cut them out
    entirely either. Eating reasonable AND exercising is the key. Add a lot
    of vegetables instead of concentrating on so much meat!

    I identified you as a anti-meat vegitarian troll in another
    post and sure enough there you go on another one of your
    rants, one that requires not reading any of the low carb
    books.

  9. Not ranting ... just giving some advice to anyone who might wanta know:
    High consumption of meat leads to: cancers: bowel cancer, hemmoroids,
    fissues, polops, rectal cancer, other non cancers, high cholestal,
    strok, heart disease.... shall i go on?

    Few cut them out entirely...none of the major LC plans that I know if
    recommend ZERO carbs..

    :: Eating reasonable AND exercising is the key.

    The key to what? And what is reasonable?

    :: Add a lot of vegetables instead of concentrating on so much meat!

    LCers don't concentrate on "so much meat". We concentrate on not eating "so
    many carbs."

  12. Oh really?
    Then I suggest you check out some articles on pubmed.org and do some
    research on the meat and cancer.
    I really hate to be the bearer of bad news to someone who is so adamant

    Let me educate you on at least one thing:

    rant (r²nt) v. rant·ed, rant·ing, rants. --intr. 1. To speak or
    declaim in a violent, loud, or vehement manner; rave. --tr. 1. To utter
    with violence or extravagance. --rant n. 1. Violent, loud, or
    extravagant speech. 2. Chiefly British. Wild or uproarious merriment.
    --rant"er n.

    Now, please show me where I have done this would you?

    All of the above is [censored] if you balance your meat with high fiber
    green veggies which the vast majority of low carbers do...

    And what the hell is a "strok"? Or a polop for that matter!
    Oh, and Cholestol? I've heard of "Cholesterol and Polyps".

    If you are going to give medical advice, learn how to spell it. <G>

    Also, the ungodly amount of pesticides and agricultural chemicals found
    in our vegatables contribute _far_ more to colon cancers and other
    cancers than meat ever dreamed of doing!

    Why don't you go read up on how to do low carb, since you seem to think that
    all we eat is meat.

    IS on lots of vegetables, not on lots of meat.
