  • I have nails!!

    I have bitten my nails forever!! Since turning to this WOE ( a bit of cheating though ) my nails are long and I haven't had the urge to bite them at all. Weird!!

    Same here! And I quit smoking! It must have something to do with not having any cravings or something..

      Me too! I even had to cut them down. Isn't it great that we're losing weight, getting more healthy and we don't have to spend money on fake nails? Sheesh, I'm saving $40 a month on that alone, lol.

              Me too! I had done acrylic nails for 20 years (I taught myself because I couldn't afford the salons). Mine are now long enough to be failed once a week and I am going to try polis on them!

                        It will more than likely have an effect on your hair also.

                            Maybe if you could find a carb count for nails, Sarah?? (LOL)
                            Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
                            Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



                            Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!
