When it comes to the holidays, sticking
to your low-carb diet can be rough. Holiday fun is always filled to the brim with
tempting, luscious desserts, sugary treats, and comforting side
dishes that mama or grandma always made.<br>
<br>
The good news is that both turkey and
ham are no-carb goodies that you don't have to give up, even if you're a diabetic. But hey -- even turkey gravy won't set you back a ton of carbs. Not the way that we are going to show you today.<br>

Originally debuting as the Warrior Diet in 2002, this decades-old, alternative eating, cyclic approach to dieting puts the focus on <i>when</i> you eat instead of what and how much. <br><br>I haven't talked about IF very much. <br><br>This is because it's often recommended to newbies by low-carb dieters, and I totally do not agree with that advice. When you're first learning how to trim your carbs and get the pounds coming off, that's not the time to be skipping meals. <br><br>Intermittent Fasting works best when you slip into it naturally. <br><br>But, there is an exception to that:<span></span><a href="https://kickincarbclutter.blogspot.com/2021/06/intermittent-fasting-for-shorties.html#more">Keep Reading »</a>Vickie Ewellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09933461203986015406noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4839697656674262294.post-42573657395488460632021-05-19T12:39:00.001-06:002021-05-19T12:39:35.240-06:00Email Notifications are Going Away<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu7-fKJZpRbS8eZ4oG90_0wyNNnhb_seGNXCsTVqb5TtEpSR-VcqncQiELKRGCqPl4QxQ8N0t3TyN6ZLnrhyphenhyphenK8zspveppfBib6b5FG1bSTM4E8-iEtyi3YANwwt5v3izTSCkyXgNiiF72g/s640/Email.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Feedburner's Email Notifications are Going Away" border="0" data-original-height="358" data-original-width="640" height="358" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiu7-fKJZpRbS8eZ4oG90_0wyNNnhb_seGNXCsTVqb5TtEpSR-VcqncQiELKRGCqPl4QxQ8N0t3TyN6ZLnrhyphenhyphenK8zspveppfBib6b5FG1bSTM4E8-iEtyi3YANwwt5v3izTSCkyXgNiiF72g/w640-h358/Email.png" title="Email" width="640" /></a></div><br />Here's a head's up: <br /><br />Google recently notified me that starting in July, Feedburner is no longer going to send out automatic email notifications whenever a new post is published. <br /><br />This means: <br /><br />If you signed up to receive those email notifications, you won't be receiving them any more starting in July 2021. <br /><br />This is extremely inconvenient for those of you who like receiving these notifications. <br /><br />I get that. <br /><br />Dropping by the blog, now and then, to see if I've published anything new is going to be a pain. <br /><br />It also makes it more difficult for me to follow through with the idea of consolidating my blogs, come hubby's retirement. Email notifications would let readers skip over the topics they're not interested in, and only click-through to the topics they are. <br /><br />But now, Blogspot will no longer have a FollowByEmail widget. <br /><br />I am not really into social media, but I do have a Kickin' Carb Clutter Facebook page where I can post the urls to the latest articles, but I don't know how convenient that would be for you. I have not been active there, but I could start doing that. <br /><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/KickinCarbClutter/">Kickin' Carb Clutter Facebook Page </a><br /><br />I also have a Kickin' Carb Clutter Pinterest board that is specifically for the blog's new posts. I only pin my own blog posts to that board, so it makes my articles easier to find. <br /><br /><a href="https://www.pinterest.com/vickie_ewell/kickin-carb-clutter-blog/">Kickin' Carb Clutter Pinterest Board </a><br /><br />Personally, to keep the number of emails I get down, I like to bookmark the blogs I read and then return at my convenience. <br /><br />But, honestly, my list of blogs is so long that I don't visit those bookmarked blogs as often as I'd like to. That is because I prefer to hang out at low-carb forums. <br /><br />For those of you who prefer email notifications, I am so sorry for the coming inconvenience.

<br>
Over the past few years, celiac disease awareness and the importance of eating a strictly gluten-free diet has grown tremendously. <br>
<br>
This increased awareness can be partly attributed to better education about the autoimmune reaction that occurs whenever a celiac ingests wheat, barley, or rye. <br>
<br>
Greater awareness has led to higher rates of patients being diagnosed. <br>
<br>
Additional factors contributing to this raised awareness also includes popular personalities coming forward with their personal stories and a marketing explosion in gluten-free products. <br>
<br>
However celiac disease is not the only reason why you might consider going gluten free.<br>

<br>
Mistakes are common among newbies to low carb, but those new to this way of life are not the only ones who might fall into the following 9 traps. Even if you've achieved a certain degree of success, you can easily fall victim to a variety of traps that can seriously affect your weight loss.<br>
<br>
While easing up on newbie anxiety (“<i>Am I doing this right?</i>”) can make low-carb dieting feel more like a lifestyle, each of us must discover and work through our own personal triggers that are affecting our ability to reach our goal. <br>
<br>
No one expects you to do everything right. <br>
<br>
That's what a support-group is for.<br>

<br>
Starting a low-carb diet can be exciting! <br>
<br>
If you're like most newbies, you've listened to several success stories about ketosis or heard about the drastic weight loss experienced during the first 2 weeks. <br>
<br>
You might have checked out some of the scientific research, glanced through a low-carb book, or read a couple of low-carb articles online. <br>
<br>
You went into your low-carb diet with a strong, determined attitude: <br>
<br>
“If others can get to a healthy weight and easily maintain it by switching to a low-carb diet, then so can I!” <br>
<br>
But sooner or later, you run head-on into a stall.<br>
