First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes ... actually reverse that. First comes the baby, then, we'll see.
For people who don't have a college degree, having a child in wedlock has become the exception, not the rule. According to a new analysis presented at the Population Association of America, among parents aged 26 to 31 who didn't graduate from college, 74 percent of the mothers and 70 percent of the fathers had at least one child outside of marriage. Even among mothers who had high school degrees or some college but no B.A., the majority of births occur among moms who are either single or cohabiting.
For the study, researchers examined the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, which interviewed 9,000 young people born between 1981 and 1998 annually from 1997 to 2011. They found that the more education a mother has, the less likely she is to have a baby out of wedlock:
Of mothers with no high school diploma, 87 percent had at least one baby while unmarried.
Births among women who didn't finish high school
Of mothers with a high school diploma, 71 percent had at least one baby while unmarried.
Births among women who finished high school
Of mothers with one to three years of college, 67 percent had at least one baby while unmarried.
Births among women with some college
Of mothers with four or more years of college, 32 percent had at least one baby while unmarried.
Births among women who completed college
The less-educated mothers also tended to have their children younger. Women with B.A.s were most likely to have children at age 29 or 30, while those with high-school degrees had them at 22.
"The clear line is whether you have a four-year college degree," the study's lead author, Johns Hopkins sociologist Andrew Cherlin, told me. "There are two clear paths through adulthood—one for people who have a bachelor's degree and one for people who don't."
There are several things going on here:
First, the cornerstone theory of marriage no longer applies. Culturally, young adults of all social classes and income levels are less likely to think of marriage as the "cornerstone" of their lives—that is, the first thing they do as adults. Instead, people now think of it as a "capstone"— sort of a trophy for having earned a B.A., obtained a job, and generally learned to live on their own for a while. The national marriage age has gradually ticked up as a result. For people who don't have all the stones leading up to the capstone, though, the entire order of operations gets messed up.
Second, marriage is increasingly something only educated people do. As my former colleague Jordan Weissmann wrote, the less a man earns these days, the less likely he is to have ever been hitched. College-educated people are increasingly only marrying other college-educated people, and they're more likely to get married overall. One reason less-educated women are having children out of wedlock is that college-educated men are not interested in marrying them.
"The college-educated young adults can see a good future, where they're likely to find a good partner, pool two incomes, and they're willing to wait to have kids till they can do that," Cherlin said. Meanwhile, the less-educated women "don't see the possibility of finding partners with good incomes. And many are unwilling to give up the opportunity to have a kid by waiting."
Women without college degrees see a dearth of husband options around them. Incarceration rates are higher among the poor, and even low-income men tend to view marriage as something they should only do after they get a good job.

Despite the effort necessary to keep FCO afloat, Urbay has begun to travel again, serving last year as guest conductor of the Symphony Orchestra of Lima. The Peruvian press praised especially her interpretation of Tchaikovsky's Romeo and Juliet. Urbay decided to re-create the experience as best she could in Miami, bringing Russian-Peruvian violinist Alejandro Eduardovich Ferreira to Coral Gables for a performance of Vivaldi's The Four Seasons. The concert was breathtaking, another instance of Urbay's trademark combination of iron musical discipline and poetic exaltation, an interpretation at once faithful and personal. Unlike Lima, there was echo in the local press. "It's difficult to get established in Miami," Urbay admits, "to open a space for yourself that will allow you to show what you know." But the conductor will never relinquish her baton.

He said, "No castles, no fairytales—I want ruins."
The clothes were big, beautiful, and a little bit strange.
The theatrical show had some morbid references.
Including tail-belts and tail-socks.
Amid a purple-clad audience, lots of sparkles and some fun black visor hats.
Lots of leather and a "dried blood" color palette at Michael and Nicole Colovos's latest collection.
Complete with marriage equality pins for all.
And jingle bells with pearls inside them.
So: lots of black leather, strong shoulders, and flashy gold embellishments.
Complete with silver buck-teeth and strange threats.
Which would be "a stronger view of women that you see culturally right now." It makes sense, really!
Mermaid: front and center.
The designer took some inspiration from a decidedly immodest source: vintage porn films.
But he left a footprint on the wall, which she had to pay for.
That means: nothing slutty!
Brought to you by Brad Goreski, two Kardashian sisters, and the cast of 'The City.'
And if that happens to be a women's shirt? Well, he'll wear it on the front row of a fashion show.
The collection was colorful and easy-fitting, with leathers that begged to be petted.
And they won't stick to your thighs.

Some of my friends and I decided to play the game again today. And we made it to round 34 and 2 of my friends were gone (One in the bathroom and the other one died) so it was 3 of us left and basically I had 12 Boom Shots (Which is hard to store ammo for) and there were 3 guys left all holding that torq(Spelling?) bow. And they killed us because we got cocky.... Really pissed off about that. Well, anyway I never got to level 50. Has anyone else? How hard is it?
Has anyone made it to round 50?
Yeah i beat it.
The trick is to play the map with the 4 way intersection with the huge hole in the center. Then split up in groups of two and run up the stairs on opposite sides of the map and then kill everyone.
Edit: Day One is the map i was talking about, easiest map to beat horde on seeing you can not get flanked if you use my strategy.
it can get pretty infuriating but it's doable as long as u pick a good map to do horde mode on and stick together. i've done it a few times with some of my friends back when the game first came out.

no, Every since Epic gimped the game by patching it to be like gears of war 1. Horde is quite hard to beat unless you have 4 players and they are all good and you use problems with the maps so you can't get flanked now, Even on easy.

I got up to wave 45 by myself on Day 1. That was nerve wracking.
Horde is reaaaaaaaallly easy to get to wave 50 on a few of the maps as long as you have 2-3 people and stick to a plan and a role ( one snipes, one hold the entrance one deals with shield management etc) it's really, really quite easy. Maps like day one and the snowy level with the two roads both have corners you can back into and funnel any locust coming at you to pick them off easily. I have done it a bunch of times. It really is very simple as long as everyone on your team (and it's very, very possible with only two people) is actually working as a team.

I did all 50 waves in split screen with a friend that lived next door. Wasn't too bad.
none of my friends have the game anymore but i'm down for it if anyone else is. i'm tryin to get my level up in multiplayer but it's no use cuz i haven't played in so long that i'm no good anymore so i'm lucky if i even get 1 kill.

I did this back when the game came out, so I don't know what all the patch stuff is about to make it harder? But the map I used was pavilion, it has an easy place to fall back to and fight the later waves.
Hide in the alcove where the shield spawns. Each round set up your shields at the entrance to this alcove, most enemies will not be able to get through, including boomers of all varieties. Only problem comes when enemies start kicking shields down, but if this happens have one or two players pick up a shield and sit at the entrance with shields up while the other two fire on enemies. Every tenth wave is very difficult when the bloodhound things come out but its manageable.
The problem with doing it there on pavillion is that you can have four people in that alcove with the shield and all it takes is for a kantus or two to throw an ink grenade in there and it's game over. Day one is the best bet. it has space to back off. a shield close by, High ground and a torque/sniper spawn.
" You mean has anyone made it to round 50 during this whole Torque Bow Tag thing? I can't get my posse to try it, so I sure haven't. "What's the deal with the Torque Bow Tag thing? Is that there forever or are they going to get rid of it soon? Because I really hate.

Not in one shot but I did do it. But now I have to do it on nowhere and a snowblind map for the achievement. If anyone wants to get a group together preferably while their still giving out 25xp then lets do it.

I made it to level 50 with three friends. Then, at the very end, our connection went all messed up and all but one of us were kicked out of the game with one dude. 3 hours for that.
It was still fun though!

I found it was easiest to do on the map Security. You can lock yourself in and they only have 3 points of entry. I've only ever got to 50 on normal.

I'm always teamed with little kills and people who quit after 20 rounds.
Yeah, beat it a long time ago when it came out with a couple of friends and one of my brothers since they wanted to do so, and I didn't mind getting the Achievement. It gets boring long before you reach 50 though. I was dreading my time playing it nearing the end. But yeah, not too hard. Best times are when you're the only one left and you kill the remaining Locusts. It can be intense.
" Yeah i beat it. The trick is to play the map with the 4 way intersection with the huge hole in the center. Then split up in groups of two and run up the stairs on opposite sides of the map and then kill everyone. Edit: Day One is the map i was talking about, easiest map to beat horde on seeing you can not get flanked if you use my strategy. "Ha yep easiest way to do it, AND One extra thing that we did if it was just the 2 of us we would take the shields that would drop (2 of em) and set them right at the top of the stairs the only creatures that can kick sheilds down are the basic soliders or crazy mutant thingies so all the wretches and the bigger guys just get caught there and you can just mow people down and we would pick them both up at the end of each round so we didn't lose the shields on the reset.

The key to making it to level 50 in ANY of the maps is teamwork and location. In the later levels, it is important to keep plenty of shields up to slow down the flow of the horde when they try to swarm you near the end of each wave. Holding out at a location that has an ammo spawn can be a huge help so you don't all run out of ammo. Use different weapon types so each of you isn't trying to pick up the same weapon ammo at the end of the waves. Let the Horde come to you! Although it's pretty cool in the early waves to take out the shotgun and go "hunting for Horde," in the later waves that will make you the first casualty. Most of the maps can be done with just two players, but that can be a LONG and TEDIOUS process. It's not tough to find a decent group of Gears 2 Horders - play ranked Horde and if you're playing with someone who works with you as a team and makes the Horde waves wet their pants in fright, add him to your friends list. When it comes time to marathon up to wave 50, you should have a decent selection of Gears friends to invite into the game. And yes, in case you were wondering, I've made it to level 50 a few times.
Avalanche is really easy postion 1 guy in the cenrter and two guys at the top of the two stairs in the back, a mortar or mini gun spawns every round for the guy in the middle and he just provides fire forwherever the most dudes are. Also after you kill some guys with shileds plant them on the stairs it prevents the the riders from getting up their. You just have to remember to pick them at the end of each round and then plant them back down once the next wave has started.

Tesla Unveils Supercharger Network (Update 2)
Updated from 1:46 P.M. ET to provide executive comments from the conference call.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Tesla Motors (TSLA) announced its Supercharger network will now allow drivers of the Model S to travel across the country, without experiencing range anxiety. And it's going to do it much faster than people think.
The network, which will triple by the end of next month, up from 9 to 27, will allow Model S drivers to travel long distances for free, indefinitely, the company said in an email. "This is in response to people's desire to have really fast charging across the country," CEO Elon Musk said on the conference call.
Additional stations will come to California, and there will be coverage of the northwest region from Vancouver to Seattle to Portland, Austin to Dallas in Texas, Illinois and Colorado. "There will also be four additional eastern seaboard stations, expanding the density of the network to provide for more convenient stopping points," the company said in the email.Within six months, the network will connect many of the metro areas in both the U.S. and Canada, and will make it possible to travel from Los Angeles to New York using only Superchargers. Going further than that, the company will enlarge the Supercharger network to include almost the entire population of the U.S. and Canada, allowing drivers to drive all the way from LA to New York, Vancouver to San Diego, or Montreal to Miami.
Ultimately, there will be a Supercharger every 80 to 100 miles. "Most people don't even know about the Supercharger network," Musk said on the call. All Model S units have Supercharger capabilities; it's standard with the 85 KwH battery pack, and is optional of the 60 kwH battery pack, and can be turned on for higher price. The average cost per station, is roughly $150,000 per station in capital expenditures, without solar, then an additional $150,000 with the solar charging, making each station's cost roughly $300,000. Tesla is also going to improve the technology on the network, cutting the time it takes to recharge the battery to three hours of driving to 20 minutes, cutting it nearly in half. The new technology, which is in beta right now, will allow the Model S to be charged at 120 kW, up from 90 kW previously. Some of the Supercharger stations have grid storage, and take in energy through the week from the panels, allowing them to go completely off grid. "Even if there's a Zombie Apocalypse, you can still charge your Model S because the Superchargers are getting energy from the solar panels and the battery packs are being charged," Musk joked during the call.
Musk also touched on the future of Tesla, saying that all future cars will have the capability to use the Supercharger network. He's hoping to get a more affordable car in the three-to-four-year time-frame. Some of the obvious elements of the third-generation car would be that it's a little smaller than Model S, which is comparable to an Audi A6 or A7 or the BMW 5 series. Musk has said he'd like the car to cost in the $30,000 to $40,000 range. Tesla shares fell following the announcement, losing 0.46% to $104.15. -- Written by Chris Ciaccia in New York >Contact by Email. Follow @Chris_Ciaccia

Printrbot: The cheap and simple 3D printer for the rest of us
Although 3D printing efforts from the likes of MakerBot are making headway, such machines are still far from mainstream. Hoping spur more adoption of 3D printing, one inventor came up with a quick and cheap solution anyone can put together in just a couple of hours.
The Printrbot is made for those who want to begin dabbling in the world of 3D printing, but prefer a simple and more affordable solution to get them started. According to its creator, Brook Drumm, the simplicity of the device's construction allows it to be assembled in just 45 minutes, and you'll be printing actual models in two hours. Essentially, this kit opens the world of 3D printing to those on a budget, without the technical skill to create their own solution.
Drumm started the project on Kickstarter asking for $25,000 in funding, but eventually racked up $830,000 worth of interest. While his cheapest models were Kickstarter-only, Drumm still sells a $549 introductory printer and a larger printer for $699. There's also a limited-run, $399 "junior" printer available.
There are two big differences between the Printrbot and something like the Replicator 2 — build area and resolution. MakerBot's Replicator 2 is considerably larger and prints finer models, and it's also designed to sit on a desktop in a home, whereas these Printrbot's are still very much a tinkerer's delight.
You can see the Printrbot in action in the video below.

"Bye, Tribe" Early Show recap

Bye, Tribe
NEW YORK, Feb. 26, 2004
CBS) On Thursday night's "Survivor: All-Stars," there is a lot riding on a reward challenge that will trim the number of tribes, reports co-anchor Harry Smith of The Early Show. To offer some analysis of the game, he was joined by Vecepia Towery Robinson, the winner of "Survivor: Marquesas," and Dalton Ross, a writer for Entertainment Weekly magazine.
Vecepia, incidentally, is one of three "Survivor" winners who was not invited back to "All-Stars." (She hosts a cable TV show in the San Francisco Bay area that focuses on game analysis.) Harry wanted to know why they didn't ask her back.
"I'm just going to be straight up: They hated on me," Vecepia replied. "I got an initial phone call, like everybody. But that's all I heard from them. I don't know what the deal was. Some people said I was not memorable enough for them. Who knows?"
Vecepia addressed the idea that she did not have enough "attitude," referring to a column by Teresa Wiltz of The Washington Post, which begins: "If you've ever seen a reality TV show, chances are you've seen her: a perpetually perturbed, tooth-sucking, eye-rolling, finger-wagging harpy, creating confrontations in her wake and perceiving racial slights from the flimsiest of provocations. At the very sight of her, her cast mates tremble in fear. And no wonder. She's the Sista With an Attitude."
Said Vecepia, "Why do our sistas have to have attitude? Not everybody has to have an attitude. You can be nice. They didn't want any spirituality out there, especially with 'The Passion of the Christ' coming out."
Harry asked Dalton who in this game he thinks is playing well.
"I would say Boston Rob," replied the writer. "He told me before the game, 'It's done. I've won. No question.' I blew him off, said 'Whatever, big talker.' I'm starting to think he's right. He's taken control of that tribe. He really has. He's taken control of Amber, that's for sure. No question there."
Dalton added that he does not think that particular alliance will backfire on Boston Rob, "because he's strong. He's been out there before. He knows the game really well. They prefer to keep a strong person around right now, and maybe get rid of Amber to break the alliance as opposed getting rid of him."
In Entertainment Weekly, Dalton has written that "All-Stars" could be the best "Survivor" ever. But he said Thursday that "the jury is still out People were expecting twist after twist, and (host) Jeff Probst said the biggest way to shock is not twist. It's going to get real personal. These are friends. It could get dirty and ugly. That's what we're hoping."
Dalton also said he thinks that Rupert dodged a bullet by building a shelter that was basically a hole in the sand.
"If they had been up at tribal council that week, he would have been in trouble, because that was the biggest bonehead maneuver we've seen in a long time," he added.
Vecepia disagreed: "I think they would have kept him because he's very strong and they're trying to win challenges."
Also, Rupert is providing fish to the tribe.
Dalton pointed out, "If you can give yourselves a few days after your last mistake, someone else will do something stupid."
Both Vecepia and Dalton find Richard Hatch entertaining and pointed out that he, too, is a provider of food for his tribe.
As for those who are not playing as well as they might, Dalton mentioned Rob Cesternino, who got booted last week, saying he "obviously never got in the mix at all." He also mentioned Sue Hawk: "She's completely off to the side from this tribe. She's a hard worker, that will help her. She's physical and strong but doesn't seem to join the tribe well."
Vecepia said she is wondering why Kathy Vavrick O'Brien is being so quiet. "Maybe she'll bust out later."
Harry ended the discussion by asking Vecepia to show a photo of her 10-month-old son, Jordan.

Ep 5 Twist Explained - from Early Show
RC Explained:
From the early show (shown approx 7:40am EST), clip of Jeff P explaining the twist on the beach:
Says - Third Part of Reward:
-Losing tribe disolved, absorbed into remaining tribes.
-Winning tribes pick off new members in school yard "Pick 'em" alternating style.
-Winning tribe picks first.
-Losing tribe members will not return to their beach.
-All acquired items (tools, RC items, Shelter) will not be returned.
-Personal Items like clothes will be sent to new tribe.
No mention of what first and second part of the reward is, I'm guessing slightly more traditional reward items. Tribes reaction was pretty stunned. I saw Shii's "Wow" again. I heard a few "What?"s. Rich says "That's wild"
RC Action:
Clip shown at 7:30am EST - Shows beginning of RC raft race.
-Race starts in shallow water, just off beach.
-Two players from each team standing by raft.
-Two sets of platforms directly out from beach. (i.e., a right anlge to beach)
-Each additional platform contains one tribe member with their paddle
-First set of platforms looks about 100 yrds out (I'm not good at distances - total guess)
-Second set another 100 yrds out
-When JP said "GO!" - standing tribe members jumped on raft and started paddling out to first platform.
-Rupert gets a blur when he loses his shorts (a bit) jumping onto raft
Apperent structure of race (logical guess, no explanation giving in clip):
-2 Paddle to first platform, pick up third member
-3 Paddle to second platform, pick forth member
-All four paddle back to beach
Interesting Details:
Each tribe starts with:
-Saboga - Ethan and Rupert
-Chapera - Rob and Sue
-Mogo Mogo -Lex and Colby
Mogo Mogo's raft is apparently far superior. It's only one piece - like a canoe. I'm thinking if it steers ok, it will be MUCH faster in the water.
Chapera's raft looks better than Saboga's. It's narrower. It also appears slightly arrow shaped (could be trick of angle). However RobM and Sue start paddling to first platform with wider part going forward (perhaps the plan on not having to turn the boat?)
Cannot tell who is on which set of platforms, camera shot is too distant. Jenna L is seen on close up shot of one platform waiting with her paddle calling encouragements. (Cool yellow Saboga design on paddle)

Graphing a Rational Expression - Problem 4

If you are confident with transformation rules, you can graph many rational functions using transformations. If the rational function is not in a form that you recognize as a transformation of 1/x, you can try long division to get it into a form where you can see the transformations. Remember to move the asymptotes when you have vertical and horizontal shifts. It's always a good idea to substitute in an x value and find the corresponding y value to check your final graph.

Few people picture Julia Louis-Dreyfus, 45, as anyone other than her famous sitcom alter ego, Seinfeld's Elaine Benes. But even fewer are aware of her favorite role: wife and mother of two sons, Henry, 13, and Charles, 8. As she prepares for her latest TV debut '- a CBS comedy called The New Adventures of Old Christine '- we chatted with the sprightly star about her new character, how she bonds with her boys and why she'll never quit working.
As a newly divorced mom who stays in very close contact with her ex-husband, your character, Christine Campbell, seems a bit neurotic and a bit pathetic. How much do you feel you have in common with her?
Yeah, I'd say she's a little pathetic! I'm a mom too, but I'm not nearly as neurotic as she is. What appeals to me about the show so much is that it's a realistic take on the imperfect parent. There is no perfect parent, and it's great we can show that on TV and in a funny way.
What parts of the show are most real to you?
When I read on the first page of the script that Christine is leaving herself a message about what things she has to get done the next day, I said, Oh my God, this is so my life. I don't think you even have to be a parent or anything to connect with that.
Christine relies a lot on a support network '- her brother, her ex '- to help balance her life. How do you make it work?
Well, it's a very difficult balance. I'm fairly lucky '- I have a fantastic husband [in June they'll be married 19 years!] who's very hands-on with our kids. But it still means a lot of juggling '- you have to stay sharp, be patient and try to do everything in manageable parts, and even then, it's always a challenge.
Did you ever take a break from the daily grind?
I had both of my children while making Seinfeld, and that was hard because when they're that young, being away from them at all is hard. When we finished that last season of Seinfeld and my youngest son was just under one, I was more than delighted to be home doing nothing. Just to have that singular focus of my children was a tremendous luxury.
And now that they're older...
I've gotten relaxed, and also they're more independent '- so I don't need to hover in the same way that you do when they're younger. But being home for a while was definitely a well-needed time in my life and in their lives too.
Do the kids come and visit you on your new set?
They're in school all day, so they'll only visit when we shoot. They get a kick out of that, and they certainly get a kick out of all the donuts and all the crap that's on the set. But you know, they're not wildly impressed with it either.
Now that you're all running in a million directions and so busy, how do you create quality family time?
We do the entire family thing. That's just a priority of ours '- we don't really have to think about it. We have family dinners every night.
And time for your husband?
Finding time as a couple is a little more challenging. We have to remember to go out on dates and stuff like that. But we just last night went to the movies, actually. [They saw Tristram Shandy.] But it's so funny because even though we'll go away as a couple, we end up talking about our kids the whole time.

Learning the True Meaning of Yoga
In spite of having this irrefutable popularity of yoga, many of them are not aware of the exact meaning and essence of Yoga.
The generic view of Yoga where someone has to leave their families, career, and occupation and live in mountains or jungles is not correct. The place does not matter to live a Yoga lifestyle. Yoga lifestyle is possible at any place any time. The Yoga text from ancient scriptures teaches how one can live a complete harmonious life in which a person is able to maintain a sound physical, mental, environmental and a true spiritual health.
The harmony of Yoga series speaks from the authoritative scriptures the meaning of yoga. This focuses on the real identity of the person – Who Am I? As per the ancient scriptures this is the most important question to be asked to live a meaningful life. When we get to know about the philosophy of yoga and live that philosophy, this is called yoga lifestyle.
It explains yoga as the ultimate search of harmony and peace. When we know the real identity of our self it becomes easy to know the meaning of Yoga. Yoga is the perfection of relationship of the self with our body, mind and other individuals and most importantly with the supreme person.
To learn more about the real meaning of yoga, visit this resource :-
Yoga simply cleanses the heart and mind and which helps the person to have a perfect relationship with the supreme person and to know and love him. This process helps us to achieve inner peace and happiness which everyone is seeking after in this world.

Is your food for fun or fuel?
Do you look at food as a "necessary evil" and something you have to consume for life/health? Do you look at food as something that is necessary but should always be enjoyed and eaten for the taste and pleasure? A combo of the two? Has going low carb changed your attitudes?
My DH is a total "food consumed should be yummy and emotionally satisfying" person. Low carb is very hard for him. He can barely make himself eat when he is hungry unless he thinks he is hungry for the specific food on his plate.
I can be that way (can we say PMS?! ) but I am more of a "food is fuel only" sort of person. Going low carb and gluten free has forced me to give up a lot of foods that used to make me feel emotionally good...cause they made me feel physically like crap. I enjoy the food I eat usually, but sometimes I am just hungry and a boiled egg must suffice.
I was wondering how the rest of you look at food and how your relationship with food has or hasn't changed during your low carb experience.
Hello! I'm Shannon. Nice to meet you.

When I first started 'dieting' a loooong time ago, I felt that I was mostly successful because I stopped looking at food as pleasure and started looking it as fuel.
As time has gone on and my taste buds have changed, I now find a lot of pleasure in the low carb food that I eat.
I still, however, rarely eat for pleasure.. unless I have my period. In which case I eat low carb chocolate even when I'm not hungry. Because period badger don't give a s**t. It just does what it wants.

WOE: Lower carb/ More fat
Start Date: Sept. 2013
Although I don't really view food as 'fun' the taste of food has always been important to me and I really take sensory pleasure in eating food that tastes good to me. Like your husband, I don't like eating food that I don't find appealing. However, nutritional value is also very important to me and I really want to eat in a healthy manner, so in that sense I eat for fuel. I suppose I'm one of the 'combo' people.
Unlike your husband, however, I am fortunate in that I have found my low carb meals to be delicious and I eat them with gusto. Is he really not enjoying the food he is allowed on a low carb diet or is he just missing the high carb foods he used to love? If it is a matter of missing certain carbs, I think time will solve that issue. If he really doesn't like the taste of low carb foods the situation seems more complicated. Maybe he just needs to play around with the low carb menus a bit; it seems there are many foods to choose from and it is difficult to believe he doesn't like any of them. Maybe he could try making a list of his preferences and pick the low carb options from that list of favorite foods. And then try out some different, more appealing recipes. Experimenting with new menus and new tastes can be fun and interesting.

I insist that my fuel be fun.
I enjoy the sensory pleasure of eating and I enjoy the creative process of trying new techniques and coming up with new variations on old favorites. I will not give those things up. In low carb, I have found a framework where I can create and eat delicious foods, lose weight, and feel great.
Do I eat for purely entertainment purposes? No. I don't even eat for emotional reasons. But I will never view food as simply fuel.

Exactly~~ I love cooking too much to only see it as fuel!!! It is a hobby, it is family time, it is holidays, it is creative. Right now, low carbing is a challenge. I love rewriting my recipes to make them lc. I love the look on my family and friends faces when they taste something that I have made and they love it.
On the other hand, I no longer eat to just eat. I respect the food and my body a lot more

Start Date: July 1, 2012
Food and cooking are a huge part of my life. I respect them and therefore don't want to mindlessly eat things that are not delicious and/or nourishing. Shopping, cooking and freezing take up most of my Friday and Saturday afternoons. I feel great with a freezer and fridge filled with nourishing low carb foods. I also eat out often and find that I can make great choices, enjoy being social, and still lose weight.

I look at it as both. fun and fuel. days that aren't social etc. I just use the fuel. But there are times I want to enjoy the food and friends and good times. There are days I don't care about food and days you can't get me to stop thinking about it I am a foodie and taste is the most important thing. fuel or fun, my food has to be good. I want that in my life.

WOE: Atkins - it's a diet
I used to eat mostly for fun, and that left me feeling miserable the rest of the time (bloated, fat, tired, avoiding social situations). Now, I eat for fuel about 95 percent of the time- whole foods, cooked at home. I enjoy the taste of my food but it's just that, food. I don't think about what sounds good and what I have a craving for, I just eat because I am hungry. Sure, I decide whether to roast a chicken or grill a piece of fish but I keep my choices pretty narrow.
And, now I spend the rest of my day enjoying life and getting fun out of that instead of stuffing myself with food for pleasure.

I used to eat for reasons other than nutrition, which is what lead me to here. Now food to me is nutrition and that is it. Having said that though, going VLC made me lose my appetite a bit too much so I added back some carbs. Stuff like some fruit, dairy and veggies that I had previously cut out. Now my diet feels pretty much normal. I just don't eat processed foods, wheat products and starchy veggies. I feel that I now eat like a normal person, good wholesome food. I think the problem before was just not eating enough protein and following a low fat WOE.

I used to eat as a reward to myself. Make it through the day, get all 6 kids to bed for the night, and sit down with a pint of Ben and Jerry's. That was my reward. Then after the kids were all gone, it was my reward for getting through a really long day at work. Out to dinner EVERY night, and grilled cheese with French fries and ranch dressing was my favorite.
After 9 months on induction, I really find that I'm eating more for fuel, and less as a reward or as emotional eating. I still make sure that I enjoy the food I eat, but I'm eating more because I need to fuel my body, and not because I'm using it as a treat. I surprise myself sometimes because it's the first time in my entire life that I'm looking at food so differently than I ever have before.

Food used to be emotional comfort......I still struggle at times.
Using food to do what food cannot do...will probably be a life long lesson for me.
My Mom taught me....by example....how to 'comfort' myself with saying things like..."Isn't that yummy? It makes you feel good."
When you are learning things as a child, you trust those who care for you!
I now focus on the science of Food. It helps me detatch the emotion I used to have.
For example: the recent online summit on gluten: "A Grain of Truth"....
SO MUCH INFORMATION....my Loving Spouse said, "Is your head stuck in that computer?"
....a long time ago I would have dutifully closed the computer and "sought solace in the kitchen"
.....I have learned to stand up for my "needs" more now!
I have learned better to "Listen to the Hunger"....

food as fuel.....I eat tasty food..but my day isn't organized around what I eat..Im not searching the world for the ultimate palate experience...food isn't entertainment...eating out is about the social interaction..the laughter ..fun and sharing life....NOW that IS the best!!!! I eat good l/c food....which is secondary to the great times with friends and family..Ive never had a meal that was sooo amazing it beat out the people I was with...
Im a carb addict..and I can say in seriousness....no carb laden food has EVER lived up to its promise of total satisfaction...its never as good or as amazing as my head told me it would be....I am ALWAYS disappointed when I give in...I just give in a lot less so the lesson is sticking better..
