HCB- Журнал, 28 янв 13

It is winter, spring, summer, winter, spring, winter, winter, spring, winter here in Missouri! lol From 20's to 70 to 20's again in a mere 5 days! Congrats on the idiot box. As for the fiber, I haven't found anything. Perhaps a fiber supplement? Have a great day! 

I haven't founf a low carb fiber source yet. Green veggies seem to be the best bet. I do the flax here and there but too much can have the opposite effect soo.... stinks too since I love the Minute Muffins. If you find anything let me know. Ps, cold dreary winter in upstate NY still too lol. Hell it is still January.  

Glad that idiot box smartned up! Derinking water is excellent and good luck with the fiber searech.  

After readin up on lowcarbdiets.about.com's fibercount, flax looks like a great source. They claim a 2g carb / 1.9g fiber ratio. I'll message you the link. 

Your weight chart is incredible...you've done a lot in less than a year's time...congratulations to you for all your efforts. 

One whole cup of cooked, frozen chopped spinach has only 1.95 (net) carbs and 4.8 g fiber. I put it in omelets, sauces & soups. Oh, and it is good for you too - Go ask Popeye.  

Hmmmm - cooked spinach - I actually like it and have not eaten it lately. Thanks Buffy! 

Doing great HCB!!! I'm so proud of you! Remember I had to cut my fiber since I was getting 40 g and for people my age it should have been at 20 g. Who knows for sure - my gut still isn't right. I guess Kale and Collards would be similar to Buffy's spinach.  

Whenever I think of fiber I automatically think of All Bran Fiber cereal. It always made me think of worms. Do they still make that?? The other thing I think of is fruits and veggies, although you have to be careful with fruits because they can tend to be higher carbs. Glad you have your "sunlight" for these dreary days. 

Take control over that idiotbox, HCB. You CAN DO it. Great job. If you can afford it, Garden of Life Chocolate Cacao protein. I mix with water or PB2. It's good. (My health food store does a two for the price of one thing all year long). They sell it at vitacost.com. Good fiber AND protein, not too many carbs. Can't beat that. Also, chia seeds is good fiber.  

Oooh, ooh. I have one more. Oatmeal is definitely a wicked good fiber source, but it does have a good amount of carbs which is why it's my fueling choice for training. But on non-training days, I like to make a hot flax seed cereal with 2 tbsp of flaxseed, a tbsp of protein (I like brown rice protein to thicken it up a bit), 3/4 cup of water and a 1/2 tsp of cinnamon or vanilla extract an your sweetener of choice. For me that's about 14g of protein, 7g carbs (5g of fiber, 1g sugar). My training rule of thumb is 5g fiber and 5g protein and less than 8g sugar per every 100kcals. I have a ton of ideas so hit me up if you need more ideas. Like Neptune, I have to cut my fiber at times. Veggies are great fiber but sometimes too many carbs, although spinach is brilliant. 

WOW - I knew Heather would have a wealth of ideas! THANKS! 

Glad that idiot box finally got a little smarter! Good for you! 

Oooh your scale nudge forward... that is great news! Spring is around the corner! Our snow just melted all away in one day. It's 64 degrees at the moment. WILD! 

Not warm enough here for me, just yet. Good thing I don't live in Minnesota, I guess. Congrats on the weight, or lack thereof? As for fiber, I know what you mean about the carbs...but at least with fiber, those are supposed to be the good carbs...myself, I take Metamucil for extra...and I still don't get enough every day...might have to try that spinach thing. 

Spinach is my go to fiber source on low carb. I found that iceberg lettuce seems to help me a lot, too. Not sure if that is scientifically correct but has some circumstantial evidence in my own experience. Glad to hear that the dry spell has been broken on the scale movement.
