There's really only two ingredients to this low carb snack. It's surprisingly easy to make, and it helps satisfy your crunch.

Recently I made some pretty drastic changes to my diet.  I weight on a weight loss program and cut out all forms of carbs for 30 days.  I was surprised at how great I felt.  I hadn't had digestive problems that have been plaguing me for years.  (TMI, I know.)  So it was a shock for me after I starting eating bread and pasta again, when I realized I have a problem with wheat.  OH NO!

Well this just plain sucks.  I've been taking over the counter Omeprazole for about two years now to treat regularly occurring heartburn.  It was a miracle when I found it, because it's the only antacid that really did the trick for me.  Now this week, a study has come out saying that it increases my risk for an early death.  Usually I brush these "studies" off, but this was kind of alar

By analyzing the results of a 10-year longitudinal study of 474 people, researchers  were able to determine that the participants who drank two or more diet sodas a day experienced a waist size increase 70 percent greater than those who stayed away from diet soda. Dr. Martin P. Paulus, a professor of psychiatry at the University of California San Diego, and an author of the study, offered this the

It's another milestone in my adulthood.  I purchased a melon at the grocery store.  I seriously had never bought any type of melon fruit before May 31st, 2011.  I guess the reason is I was afraid I would pick a bad one.  After the avocado disaster of '10, I've been pretty tentative of trying new things...
