following: lorik's own diet
performance: losing 0.1 lb a week

Hey! I'm Lori from TN. I'm a mother of 4 children as well as the oldest of 4 children. I have a great husband and family, which makes it easy to love life. I've recently gone back to school after being out for quite some time but thought it's now or never. I finally got my baby started in school and now it's my turn! I've put on some weight in the past couple years which is kind of depressing but I'm being patient and looking for my second wind to get started again!! I'm also on Facebook, just message me for the link!

Low Carb at Taco Bell?!?!?
that sounds good.. I think I will steer clear of the hamburger meat and the beans anyway, just to be safe.

Low Carb at Taco Bell?!?!?
Here's the problem:
My kids LOVE to eat at Taco Bell ... my problem is that I'm not really sure what to order, if anything and stick to low carb. I've heard that the meat has carbs... I'm sure the chicken and steak would be ok but I'm really not sure what or how to order anything for myself. I really enjoy spending the time with my kids.. but don't want to go off my diet in order to have a good time with them and this is usually our dinner for the night. Should I just not eat until I get home or what? Any ideas???? Doubt

Making whipped cream from heavy whipping cream
It should whip up. Are you mixing it long enough? Mine has always worked. Try moving the mixer around the bowl and using a faster speed. If you work with it for a few min... it should turn into whipped cream for ya!! Very Happy
