Yuck. I hate dry lettuce. I don't like regular Coke, either, but in this instance I'd just drink the Coke and forget about the lettuce.
I have been known to chomp down on large handfuls of plain lettuce while chopping it for salads and such... I LOVE the crispy, watery crunch! More for me, I guess.0 -
Earlier I was looking up recipes containing eggs and I came across this advice, "Baked eggs (350 °F (177 °C) for 1/2 hour in a muffin tin, cool in ice water) are identical to boiled eggs but the shells peel easier." I don't know if it works or not, but I remember a couple of people throwing eggs away because they wouldn't peel. Maybe this is worth a try?
That seems like a long time at too high of heat to me - anyone else? Interesting, though.
I do this at 300 for 30 minutes.0 -

I started that.
Well, I made a confession that I can't eat the crusts off of poptarts, and it started a 2-3 page poptart minithread here, as well as a bunch of poser poptart threads in the main forum.0 -

Okay, well, I'm not sure why I thought I knew anything about this since I don't eat eggs. But I do cook a lot. Well, used to, before the kids all moved out. Guess my cooking skills have gone bad.0 -

That's the reason I love celery, but I don't like lettuce oddly enough.0 -

Lettuce in and you'll find out!0 -
That's part of the reason why I love bell peppers so much. They're so crunchy and feel so refreshing and hydrating. Oh... and cucumbers. I love cucumbers... and if you chop em up and put them in water, it tastes so amazing.0

We've talked about it, but he thinks I'm petty. Yesterday, I asked him where his stuff was, he said in his gym bag at work. Today, I hid the deodorant, when he asked where it was, I said, "It's gone".
Oh, I'm judging this! Men should NOT wear women's deodorant.
I've worn my boyfriend's deodorant before. The first time was when I was first staying at his place but before I moved my toiletries in. The second was after he had an allergic reaction to one. It was an expensive one, too! I couldn't let it go to waste. I am still wearing it now and it works better than mine.
Oh speaking of deodorant... I'm avoiding the ones with aluminum and parabens... which unfortunately means that all the antiperspirants are out. It's such a drag...
Yeah. I'm with you. I use the crystal one (not sure the brand name), and although the smell is gone, the wet pits suck.0 -

Are you signed up for their text alerts? If not, you should be. Today, they have $1 6" hot dogs all day with a limit of 3. I'm not sure if you have to show the text or just mention it, but it's worth a try. I love the chili cheese coney with tots and a cherry limeade. YUMMY!

Sonic is amazing. I'm so sad there aren't any in Canada, and also not one in Buffalo, since I'm there regularly - but when I'm down in Texas periodically (in-laws) I always make sure to do a couple of stops there. Cherry limeade with extra cherry. Mmmmm.
That's my jam! I love it when they actually put the maraschino cherries in the bottom of the cup too!

Hahaha! Good thing I eat a lot of vegetables because my diet is sadly deficient in the "greens" catagory as far as lettuce and kale and spinach go. Just don't care for them.0 -

That isn't really how it works. It's an issue for T1 diabetics, but that has nothing to do with keto.0 -

Haha yes. And I'm the only one who likes the maraschino cherries, so I always get to eat the ones off everybody's sundaes and cream shakes etc.0 -

I was so relieved to go to the bathroom on Monday since I was constipated for almost a week. I weighed myself in the morning & weighed 153 & lost a pound after finally pooping.
THANK GOD for prunes & a ton of water.
I confess that that once while shopping with my mom I farted in a thrift store & my mom thought it was a little old lady who stunk up the store.
This made me laugh.
Ugh, I totally understand being constipated. I've tried so many things to fix it. I've even complained to my doctor but she didn't seem to care. I'm getting a new doctor...
I've tried: coconut oil, magnesium (the drink and pills), olive oil, Epson salt drink, prunes, culturelle, fiber, etc etc. I'm not sure what else to try.0 -

I took it to mean rainbows and unicorns. And/or he's one more sap who got suckered into dropping $25 on ketostix and thinks they actually work. (urine test strips that turn purple if you have one of 3 kinds of ketones in your system)0 -

I'm not exactly sure what he meant by "pissing glitter", and he never clarified.... I couldn't make sense of half of what he was saying. I did get he was having heart palpitations, but that's about it. I do know that if my piss was "glittering" I'd be hightailing it to the doctor's office!0 -

Don't worry about it - there are still doctors out there who get confused by it. So many horror stories on reddit. I've been lucky to have found older doctors who get it most of my life.0 -

I do this. The only person I talk to is my SO, but when he pisses me off, I have no-one else to talk to about it. No girly chats or girly evenings, but at work I pretend its all good. I make up stuff when they ask how my weekend was. Instead of saying "we did nothing but watch tv and work out" it will be "We went to the park and played ball games in the sun all afternoon and then went out for a lovely meal" something that says we did stuff, but stuff you won't remember in half an hour so I don't have to keep up the lie.
This is me too. My SO works weekends usually. My sister is busy with her own family. I have one other friend but she has so many other friends she doesn't hang out with me too much (we were neighbors as young kids but she went to private school so we had different friends as kids). I'm always embarrassed to say I did chores over the weekend every week... I hate when people ask me how my weekend was.0 -

We were discussing diets like atkins and my professor mentioned the ketosis part of it, and then we started discussing ketoacidosis. I must have gotten them switched around lol. Either way, not exactly a jar I'm willing to put my marbles in, kwim?0 -

I take a stool softener with a stimulant laxative EVERY day. Nothing else works for me. I take two of the generic tablets and the stimulant isn't enough make me feel crampy, but it is enough to get the job done.0 -

I hate that too. I am a 44 year old single mom of a 4 year old. I also work full time 40-50 hours a week . Please don't ask me about my weekend unless you want to hear about laundry, vacuuming and a variety of other household chores and my big outing of a trip to the grocery store0 -

Only half serious suggestion: sugar free gummy bears
Slightly more serious - get a bag of sugar free Russell Stover's anything. Just not on a weekend you need to do anything important, like, leave the house.0 -

I used to keep sugar free mints/candy in my office. Anything that wasn't sugar free (even mints), I would eat them all in short order. Sugar free anything, I can only eat 2 mints per day or I'll be strapped to the crapper.0 -

Try a Pure Protein chocolate deluxe bar. There is actually a warning on bar about it having a "laxative" effect if it's over consumed. Let's just say, I've only had 1 bar and will NOT be eating any more of them. I was in the bathroom for over 20 minutes.
