    For those that are following and care :wink: - the people accepted the second offer on the house! As long as all the mortgage/inspection/misc. stuff works out I will have possession in a couple months. I'm really excited about it :smiley:

    That's fantastic! Congratulations! :)

    Has anyone else bothered to venture over to that "Ketogenic 1 month progress" or whatever it's called thread yet? Dude's a walking ketoacidosis case waiting to happen!
    Just reading that made me feel sick and my heart beat faster. I've tried going low carb many times in the past and it always ends up very, very bad. I get very weak, lightheaded, and nauseous. So to me, this sounds awful! I love my carbs. Mmmm.... bread.

    I took my daughter shopping on Saturday for a dress for her National Honor Society Induction Ceremony. It was so refreshing to see her try on clothes. She looked amazing. loved *everything* that she tried on and I can't wait until shopping feels like that for me again. :)

    Confession: I got drunk and broke my own tea kettle a few weeks ago. Whenever someone asks what happened to the top of it, I say "someone must have been messing with it when they shouldn't have been". Totally true, because I should not have been attempting to boil water in that state. Lol

    I confess: the "Dr. Poon diet" thread was about...not at all what I thought it was going to be about. ;)

    Not really. It's more likely he's going to hurt himself by passing out before it gets to that stage. He'd have to have some serious pre-existing conditions for it to get that bad.

    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?

    I've used Alton Brown's method where you just put them straight on the oven rack. I didn't notice them being any easier to peel, but it was convenient for doing a bunch of them at one time.

    That seems like a long time at too high of heat to me - anyone else? Interesting, though.

    I confess it might be and I'd have no idea. I hate hard boiled eggs. I don't even know what they taste like because the smell has put me off ever trying them.

    I try to do a lower carb diet, but I'm not even attempting keto. I've just got done studying what happens when there are too many ketone bodies built up in the blood....yeah, no thanks. lol

    The guys who sit in the other group across the floor from me have some very odd conversations. All. Day. Long.
    Current topic: If their group had a fight to the death, who would be the last man standing and why?

    Confession: It is cold and rainy again and the brief warm taste of spring we had earlier this month seems like it was a cruel tease. I really just want to sit under a blanket with hot chocolate (plus whipped cream) and eat gooey, warm things.

    I just binged. I had lost 4 pounds and cheated a few days while I was away. Gained all of it back and now can't get back on track. :(

    Just followed up my healthy lunch with a giant spoonful of White Chocolate Wonderful. I am highly suggestible.

    Finally caught up. Geez.

    I'm debating going to Sonic today to get chili cheese tots. With added jalapeños.

    I always see commercials for Sonic and I really wish they were in Canada!
    My husband and I ate at sonic on our wedding night. We had a long drive ahead of us.

    Speaking of showers. Every time my BF stays over he uses my shampoo, soap, deodorant and my toothpaste. Frankly, I don't like it for a number of reasons. 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.

    Instead of boiling them in water I actually throw them in a steamer. I find it makes them easier to peel, some eggs though I swear just refuse to be eaten. Lol
