Re: ok, stupid chips-day 1 again...

the wrapper says 0 carbs...i bought cracker barrel and it's more expensive just because of that fact, the black diamond in my fridge says 1g carbs per serving .... i am in canada...maybe its different here *wishful thinking..i know* thanks for letting me know, I know that cheese needs to be eaten in moderation, the same as bacon, but i wouldnt have counted the 0.5 towards my carb intake if you didnt let me know . I am keeping under 4oz of cheese per day just like it says on the list! the mayo is fantastic!! we usually buy miracle whip because im not a big fan of mayo, so this was nice because i added a bit more lemon juice to give it extra tang..my husband even liked it!! I've learned alot today, thanks so much for all of the wonderful advice. Looking forward to another successful day tomorrow

Nice work Tracy. 52 minutes of exercise is great. Did you know that we have a wii fit challenge in the exercise challenge forum?
Where did you find the recipe for the mayo?

Not Atkins friendly at all.

Re: ok, stupid chips-day 1 again...

i know *sigh*.. that's why i made the mayo. i dont like mayo, but the homemade stuff was alright, I'll get used to it im sure. my miracle whip is at the back of the fridge on the bottom shelf, along with my ketchup, HP sauce, BBQ sauce etc.... i dont eat alot of sauces anyway...ketchup was a difficult one to give up, but i've been clean for over a month now lol. i eat mustard now on things if i want a bit of a kick.

ketchup was a difficult one to give up

You can make low-carb ketchup. There are a few recipes on Linda's page: Linda's Low Carb Menus & Recipes - Misc. Recipes

Or... I don't know if you can find this where you live... but Heinz makes a reduced sugar ketchup (1 carb per serving).

If you absolutely have to have the sweetness of Miracle Whip, you can "make your own":
