MOTIVATION

YOU CANNOT FAIL WITH A PLAN

Wanting success isn't sufficient enough to get it.
You have to ask yourself,
"What am I going to do to get the things I want?"

Your problem is how to bridge the gap which exists
between where you are now and the goal you intend to reach.

You cannot fail with a definite step by step plan,
because each step carries you along to the next step, like a track.
All you need is the plan, the road map,
and the courage to press on to your destination.

You cannot get lost on a straight road.

5 Steps to Ultimate Low Carb Eating

By Kevin Koskella

 

  1. Low Carb does not mean No Carb. There is a misconception out there that eating low carb means that “all carbohydrates are bad and should be avoided.” This is simply not true. A healthy low carb diet can include ample amounts of fruits and vegetables, which are carbohydrates. Also, sprouted wheat bread, brown rice, and honey (in moderation) are all examples of beneficial carbohydrates that should be included in a healthy diet.
  2. Carb Cravings disappear. Keep in mind if you are considering a low carb diet, your current cravings can disappear. Eliminating most carbs for 2 weeks at the beginning of a diet plan can eliminate typical cravings like sugar, pasta, bread, pancakes, etc.
  3. Watch for “hidden” sugars and carbs. Many foods that you wouldn’t suspect have added sugar and should be avoided when cutting down on carbs. Ketchup, BBQ sauce, many salad dressings, and canned fruit all contain quite a bit of sugar. Typical deli sandwiches have too much bread and will contribute to a high-carbohydrate meal.
  4. Shop around the edges. To eat the healthiest, when you go to the grocery store, avoid the aisles and instead get the majority of your food around the edges of the store. That is where you will get your fruits, vegetables, and meats, and avoid the less nutritious high-carb processed food.
  5. Forget what you know (or what you think you know). Many trends in nutrition are just that. The media has influenced how we view food. There are many very healthy options that the mainstream would consider dangerous to your health. Coconut oil is one example. The canola oil industry in the 80’s ran propaganda campaigns to make sure people stopped eating healthy coconut oils, and switched to canola. Remember, it was only a few years ago that “common knowledge” was that eating fat is bad for your health and high carbohydrate was the best thing you could do!

MOTIVATION

WHO IS GOING TO BE THE MASTER OF YOUR LIFE?

Sometimes if you want to see a change for the better,
you have to take things into your own hands.
Once you decide to be at the level of choice,
you take responsibility for your life and gain control of it.

You're in control of your life to the degree that you make the decisions.
If you let others make decisions for you, you have no control.
When you control the decisions, you control the actions.

Take charge of your life.
You don't have to ask permission of other people.
Don't give someone veto power over your life.

If you don't run your own life, someone else will.
If not you, then who?
If now now, then when?

Low Carb Recipes
 
 
*The Original Atkins' Diet Revolution Rolls

3 large eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 Tablespoons cottage cheese (or 3 1/2 tbsp ricotta)
2 packets Splenda
Preheat oven to 300º F.

Separate eggs very carefully (make sure NONE of the yolk gets into the
white.) Spray PAM on a Teflon cookie sheet. Use an electric beater to
beat egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff (but not dry). Mix egg
yolks, cottage cheese and Splenda (or Sugar Twin) in separate bowl. Fold
yolk-mixture carefully into egg whites being sure not to break down
fragile whites - mix no longer than 1 minute. Place the mixture carefully on
the cookie sheet, gently putting one tablespoon on top of another until it
is two (2) inches in height. Repeat until you have 6 little "pillows".
Place the cookie sheet in the oven and bake for 35-55 minutes (depending on
your firmness preference.)

Makes 6 rolls. 1 carb per serving.

NOTE: Splenda has been substituted for the old Sugar Twin recommended in
the 70's.
 
 

 
 
Chocolate Ganache Cakes

You'll never believe this low carbohydrate "Chocolate Ganache Cake" recipe
only has 1.5 effective carbs per serving*. But it is true! Thanks to
Doctor's Carbrite Diet Sugarfree Dark Chocolate Bars it's true.

6 ounces Doctor's Carbrite Diet SugarFree Dark Chocolate Bar
1 tbsp heavy cream
3 tbsp unsalted butter, softened and cut into small cubes
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
1/4 cup Splenda
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp salt
1 tbsp Atkins Bake Mix

Preparing this Low Carb Dessert Recipe:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 6 3oz ramekins.

2. In the top of a double boiler, combine 2 ounces of the chocolate and the
cream. Simmer water in the bottom of the boiler, only a couple of inches, so
the water will not touch the top of the boiler when put together. Put the
boiler together and melt the chocolate, stirring occasionally, until mixture
is smooth and blended, 1-2 minutes. This is the ganache. Transfer to a small
bowl and refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes.

3. Wash the top of the double boiler and dry throughly. Combine the
remaining 4 ounces of chocolate and the butter in the top of the boiler and
again place over the simmering water. Melt the chocolate,stirring
constantly, until the mixture is smooth and blended, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat and cool for 10 minutes.

4. In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, egg yolk, Splenda, vanilla, and salt.
Using an electric mixer, beat until thick ribbons fall from the beaters and
the mixtue is triple in volume, about 5-6 minutes.

5. Sift the Atkins Bake Mix over the bowl and gently fold until just
blended. Add the chocolate mixture and gently fold together until smooth and
blended.

6. Divide the batter evenly amoung the 6 ramekins. Remove the chocolate
ganache from the refrigerator and form 6 teaspoon size balls. Place 1 ball
in each ramekin and press gently.

7. Bake until cakes pull away from the sides and tops are just firm, 9-11
minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Invert cakes onto individual
plates, serve warm.

*This low carb dessert recipe makes 6 servings with 12 carbs per serving but
only 1.5 Effective Carbs per serving because of the sugar alcohol in the
chocolate.
