NOTES:
These cookies are great. They are very sweet though. I've only used an egg white when I've made these. Also, the dough is kind of crumbly. I ended up kind of forming them with a spoon and my hands into little balls. My experience was that they only took about 8 minutes to bake. I let them cool on the sheets for about 5 minutes before easily moving them to cooling racks. The dough makes them look like they're not going to turn out, but I was pleasantly surprised the first time I made them. You won't be able to tell that they're low calorie and low fat. ENJOY! Let me know if you like them. Amy Lampert

Food Tips of the Week
Advice on losing weight
Make sure that you drink enough fluids. Sometimes at some stage in a hectic work day, you feel you need food when in truth you may need a refreshing glass of water or cranberry juice. The feelings of hunger and thirst are somewhat similar, but one of them ends in weight increase and the other one leads to no damage.
Some lower carbohydrate diet tips:
* You can make really good smoothies by using reduced carbohydrate yogurt.
Ok, well, it’s not technically cooking, but if you must have smoothies you can make them with low carbohydrate yogurt and your favorite fruit. Clearly, you will need to make sure you use only fruit that is low in carbohydrates and make use of the whole fruit as the fiber is beneficial.
* Make reduced carbohydrate breadcrumbs for breaded foods.
Although you can possibly buy reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs, you can also make them by using low carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the low carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a sheet of cookie paper. When it is well toasted, whizz it in the food processor using a coarse blade. Keep in an airtight jar.
