Ice cream has always been my vice. Today is my mom's birthday and I already know she will want to eat nothing but crap and expect me to do the same. She already has terrible eating habits, which irks me since I did a complete 180 on my eating habits from nothing but fast food, junk foods, and horribly processed foods to unprocessed, real food like boneless, skinless chicken, extra lean ground turkey, leafy greens, etc. She's not very supportive of me eating way better than I used to and wants me to eat junk food every now and then even though I have no appetite for any of those.
I miss Odessa, TX. The dry heat was nice compared to this horrid humidity plus 105 degree temps. I'm glad I work nights where it's a bit cooler. Although, I know it might be hell for me in the winter time with no sun to stand in for warmth.
There might be a day shift spot opening here soon if one of our guards gets this other job he's interviewing for on Friday. But I think I'm going to stick with my third shift or maybe switch to second shift so I can work on school stuff while I'm at work. First shift is WAY too busy for any school work to be done plus I like my current Sergeant.

The upside is if I change shifts, he wouldn't be my direct supervisor anymore and we could be more open with the relationship. As it stands now, things are kept on the DL.0 -

Is it odd that by posting something in another thread I suddenly realized that compared to other people, I am very strange?
I realize that I might never have been a 'normal' child having been through what I have.
I wonder what, after those experiences, put me in this amazing job with so many opportunities while others who have gone through the same things are in jail or emaciated drug junkies. How did I end up in such a good place while so many others didn't?
I almost feel guilty about it this morning.

Here comes some water weight for me for the next couple days. We're under a heat advisory. Blech.
Tomorrow, with the humidity, it's supposed to feel like normal human body temperature outside.
I usually bloat like crazy in this weather. And it's a good thing I have a treadmill in the basement.0 -

Don't feel guilty. You made your choices to end up where you did. Others made their choices to do other things. Maybe that just makes you stronger, to succeed despite your past.0 -
Yet another reason why bees are awesome!MelissaPhippsFeagins wrote: »lilaclovebird wrote: »MelissaPhippsFeagins wrote: »pofoster21 wrote: »AngryViking1970 wrote: »I don't know what happened here, but all of a sudden I can access the boards again from work. I guess someone in IT figured out that MFP doesn't fall into the blocked category of "games".
So, we extracted 168 lbs of honey from the hives that had capped boards. That's not as much as we'd hoped; the wet weather really did a number on the bees' foraging.
But still, we're hopeful that they be able to draw more comb so we can harvest again in the fall. What we did get, though, looks really good. I can't tell you how it tastes, though, because honey is gross. LOL My husband and son love it, though.
Welcome back! And I like honey too... But don't seek it out. Too much sugar. I would be terrified of getting honey from a hive. Yikes!
I seek out local honey and eat a teaspoon daily during peak allergy season. I couldn't tell you why it helps, but it does.
"The idea behind eating honey is kind of like gradually vaccinating the body against allergens, a process called immunotherapy. Honey contains a variety of the same pollen spores that give allergy sufferers so much trouble when flowers and grasses are in bloom. Introducing these spores into the body in small amounts by eating honey should make the body accustomed to their presence and decrease the chance an immune system response like the release of histamine will occur. Since the concentration of pollen spores found in honey is low -- compared to, say, sniffing a flower directly -- then the production of antibodies shouldn't trigger symptoms similar to an allergic reaction. Ideally, the honey-eater won't have any reaction at all."
I got all that from How Stuff Works dot com.
http://health.howstuffworks.com/diseases-conditions/allergies/allergy-treatments/local-honey-for-allergies2.htm
And here I was just listening to my mom because her grandmother was a medicine woman. LOL! Anywho, time for a trip to the farmer's market. I am getting low on honey.
I love honey. I have tried raw locally sourced honey during allergy season, no help. Yummy and worth eating but no help with allergies for me.
I had to go back and find this because the medicine woman (Great grandmother Sarah) cut a small onion in half, hollowed out the center, put the teaspoon of honey in the hollow and ate it the next morning. I wrap this in saran wrap and leave it in the fridge over night. You can eat the onion it not. (I dice mine up and put it in my egg white omelet.) My guess is that Sarah covered it with a towel to keep the flies out, she certainly didn't have a refrigerator as she was born in 1860.

I lost 80 pounds and reached my goal weight in January. But since then, it's been hard to increase my calorie intake (especially carbs) because I'm afraid of gaining all the weight back. I know I lost my menstrual cycle because I exercised a lot and didn't compensate with enough calories, but I slowed down on the exercise in November while keeping my calories the same with hopes that my period would return (obviously didn't).
Anyway, for the past month I've been eating under 300 calories a day and I actually have to force myself to eat even that little. Yes, I know it's not healthy to be eating under 300 calories, but at least it's SOMETHING and not anything at all (even though I could easily go without eating for 1-2 days and still not get hungry). I went to my OB at the end of May and she tested my thyroid, sex hormones, etc. and everything came back normal except for my LH level, which was really low.
I still didn't have an answer on what to do to get my period back, so I went to my family doctor last Monday and she took another blood sample to test my insulin, DHEA, estrogen, progesterone, and thyroid levels and ordered a pelvic ultrasound. The pelvis US showed a benign (thank God) subserosal uterine fibroid which she said is nothing to worry about. **UPDATE** I just got my blood test results for the hormones and they were all normal (thank God). I'm honestly shocked that my thyroid is normal. I have to go back on September 25 for a follow-up, but I asked her what I can do between now and then that could get me to start having a regular menstrual cycle again. She said to cut down my water intake (I drink 5 L a day) and increase my calorie intake to a healthy level again to around 1,500-1,800 a day. I feel like that's going to be hard because I don't eat fast food or drink Starbucks (which I did multiple times daily my entire life up until I graduated college in May of last year). I also only eat foods that are in the perimeter of the grocery store (so obviously no processed foods).
Milk and cottage cheese (full fat) are on the perimeter. Buy a protein shake mix - EAS Complete Nutrition is good and at Target - and drink that in your milk. Eat the cottage cheese with fruits and veggies. I have been where you are. I know you don't want to, but do it anyway. 1/2 cup of cottage cheese and one shake a day for a week or so and then two of each. As your appetite comes back, you can sub in chicken or whatever meat you like for a shake. Good luck. It is hard work.
I don't eat dairy products since they make me break out. Eating more is so much easier said than done. I eat 8 oz of meat every day (4 oz chicken and 4 oz extra lean ground turkey) and plenty of veggies of mainly leafy greens.
I don't eat dairy either. I sadly can't have eggs either. Can you have eggs and is there a form you like them?
My daughter and I found a vegan shake mix we like - Naturade All-In-One Nutritional shake. I have lots of food issues and this works for me (non GMO, Non Dairy, Gluten free, soy free and so on). If there is a food you have an intolerance, allergy, or aversion to but are interested in this let me know and I will read the label for you.
Hugs and I'm rooting for you.
Quoted to say, this is what I love about this group. Everyone cares, and we won't forget to check on your progress. So get those almonds and keep us posted. By the way, my grocery has a grinder for making your own almond only almond butter. You could mix that in the Greek yogurt and freeze it for a treat. (and yes I will be trying it the next time I go shopping)0 -

You're a tiny little thing.
Did the person taking your picture why you were having them take it?
Why thank you. I don't feel tiny, but someone else said that about me this week, so maybe it is true. My daughter took the picture over the weekend to text it to my best friend so that she would tell me to wear a turtleneck under the sweater because the outfit is "too much maroon." I agreed to wear the sweater with black pants and the maroon pants with a gray sweater.
I agree with the tiny. Too funny about daughter doing a maroon intervention.
Thank you for saying I am tiny. Ya'll are making me feel good. And the pants and sweater were both on clearance. Who could pass that up?

I do like eggs, but I stopped since they made me super bloated. One protein powder that I like is the vegan Garden of Life raw protein powder, chocolate version. Have you ever tried that? I went through a vegan phase 2 years ago and really enjoyed that one. No allergies, but there are some foods that I don't eat since they don't agree with me or I just don't have a craving for them anymore (i.e. dairy and eggs).
Hugs!
Thank you. I don't crave a lot of foods anymore but I chime in the those who are concerned about your calorie intake. I'm not a vegetarian (was for a long time) but daughter just decided she wanted to be so for her sake I'm keeping our house veg for now. If son has serious complaints about it I'll work with it.
How about a homemade chicken tortilla soup? I start with a carcass and cook it with veggies to make a stock. (Sometimes I repeat to make a very rich stock, then I cook a chicken in the stock (throw a beef bone in too for extra richness). Strain the stock, shred the chicken and put the chicken and stock in a pot (I'll have to look it up to remember) add chopped bell pepper, chopped sweet pepper (anaheim?) and chop carrots, celery, onion, & garlic, add drained hominy (1 - 2 cans), salt, pepper to taste. Use homemade or premade (I live where I can get really good corn tortilla shells) and slice then spray with olive oil and toast. Serve the soup with a sprinkle of tortillas on top. Oh, I also chop up a bunch of cilantro right before serving. (Optional but I love it). I may have forgotten something but this will get you a rich, tasty, homemade soup.
Can you put this in the batcave recipes, please? Thank you!!

Don't feel guilty. Everyone makes their own choices and you have made good ones. Keep making them and help others make them when you can, but do not feel guilty about the amazing woman you've become..

I was told you have to have a teaspoon a day during winter and spring so by the time summer comes around your body is used to it. I don't suffer with it as much as I did as a child, so I just stick to hayfever tablets, and they seem to do the trick, but they didn't back in the day.0 -
