My name is Lyndsey and I'm 17 years old. I live in Lexington, South Carolina. I pride myself on being mature for my age with a good head on my shoulders, but I find I can be snippy when I hear something that just hits a nerve. I have a lot of strong opinions and I have no problem arguing them. I'm a very open-minded person and very tolerant of most things.
Immaturity is a big pet peeve of mine, as is self-centered, narrow-minded, and ignorant people. I can be cruel when it comes to these things, but sometimes certain people need to be told their faults. I know mine and I have no problem being confronted with them. If someone has a problem with me, online or in person, I'd rather they tell me and we can resolve the issue in a mature fashion. I won't tell you want to WANT to hear, just what you NEED to hear.
On a less serious note, I'm a laid back person and I enjoy shopping, the internet, and my favorite TV shows (Queer as Folk, The L Word, Friends, American Idol, Will & Grace, House). I don't have a large group of friends, but the ones I have are close and I love them to death. I generally enjoy life, minus the whole school deal. I'm a junior in high school and I can't wait to move on to college. I am an honors student and I hope to go to the University of South Carolina and then eventually into the medical field, possibly psychology.
If you have any questions or want advice, I'm here for ya, babes.

So I'm on a low-carb diet that allows a maximum of 20 carbs a day. This diet really seems to help me lose weight, but in the beginning I always have cravings for foods I can't have (obviously). I've been having things such as chicken, cheese, eggs, avacados, burgers things like that. So does anybody have any suggestions for different snack foods or even meals/recipes? Any feedback is appreciated =] (link)

EDIT: I wrote an email with the stuff you asked for, but it said that the email address you gave me has been disabled. If you could give me another one or enable that one and let me know by adding it to the feedback, I'll send it ASAP. :)
I was on Atkins for 3 months and lost 28 pounds, so I know all about low carb. I was on 20 grams a day the entire time. Here are some low carb foods.
Unlimited butter
Meat (chicken, hamburger, beef, pork, etc)
Cheese
Eggs
Veggies (broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, green beans, peas, etc)
Salads with dressing
Low carb snacks are few and far between. They have sugar free candy, but they are pretty high in carbs when you're only allowed 20. For example, sugar free jolly ranchers have 3 carbs per tiny piece. They're good for cravings, but not for every day use.
Sugar free jell-o is a BIG thing on low-carb. Only 1 carb per container if you get it in the snack packs. And they taste like regular jell-o.
I went to this website EVERY DAY when I was on Atkins:
http://forum.lowcarber.org/
It's so helpful. You can ask any questions you want and those people know SO much about low-carb eating. And they have SO many recipes that are really good. They also offer encouragement when things get tough.
Check it out. That forum saved me. :)
