    OMG what?

    OK, to understand the depth of this next comment, you have to realize that I've weighed more than 300 lbs for 12 years.

    So I've fluctuated between a woman's size 3X-4X and had to buy my clothes from plus-size catalogs, depts, etc.

    I bought a sequined top for the holidays in an extra-large and put it in the back of my closet "for one day in the future."

    Well, I pulled it out last night...

    AND IT FIT!!!!

                Great shrinking going on!!
                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!!
