Happens "almost" all the time. That's why the dx is not completely definitive yet. But it happens enough that I can't even walk the dog alone anymore. EIA can also occur with regular activity such as yard work and guess what else? My job. It's happened there too. (I do have a physical job) Symptoms have been getting worse…

Seen an allergist. Seen two of them actually, Nothing comes up in the tests. Also seen an immunologist. Still Nothing.

Well, People, It is very rare, I was hoping somebody here might actually have had a definitive diagnosis and perhaps some actual ways to prevent it so I can continue to exercise. I have googled it too and not found a lot of preventative information. I have been trying to get a diagnosis for the cause of the anaphalaxis for…

I am not sure why you can't take the meds, but I had extremely high cholesterol and within three months of healthier eating, I dropped it all to below normal. Yes I had low dose meds at the time,(Which i never took regularly because I could never remember to take them) but my doctor said she's still never seen anything…

love, Love, LOVE the Victoria's Secret Knockout Bra. Doubling up is just wrong. If you are doubling up you are in the wrong size.

I used to always sweeten my coffee. Until I discovered REALLY GOOD coffee that didn't need sweetener. Bought mine straight from the plantation. Don't know what I'll do when that runs out.

I streaked across a golf course once.

My mother used to puree cottage cheese and use it for a sour cream substitute. If you didn't see her puree it, you'd never know it was cottage cheese first.

Mostly just tracking, and have been "trialing" different workouts. Will be going away for three weeks where I can't track electronically but when I come back I will be going full force into a plan I'm sure.

THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU! I couldn't figure out what Erectile Dysfunction (ED) had to do with counting calories. Now how do I save this for reference later??

Not a smoothie recipe, but I made this in my ninja. Approx 160 calories each. So easy to make, and clean up. Unfortunately, my DH and son love them so much I'm lucky if I get one. PS they have no idea they are made with chickpeas. I'm still working on finding good smoothie recipes myself. Healthy Brownie Muffins 1 (15 oz.)…

Don't get me started. My husband is the only person who knows that I am "dieting" and trying to genuinely lose some weight. (He's very supportive too and hid the 4 boxes of Thin Mint Girl Guide Cookies he bought.) If I even get asked by a co-worker or friend "Have you lost weight?" I always reply with "No, maybe you should…

Store in brine, dry-salted, hung in the wind to dry for several weeks or eaten raw.

What do you use to get it smooth? Blender or food processor? do you end up with chunks or grit?

It's the taste and smell I can't stand with bananas. Peanut butter too actually. Do over ripe bananas have less taste? I have a bunch of average ripe ones in the freezer. The dog will probably get those for treats.

I am so glad I clicked on your post. Congratulations! I have just started my journey. I wish I could pin up your picture and say that will be me some day! You look great and should be very proud of yourself.

Thank you everybody for the help. It does help alot. I do actually need more calories for work days. At home doing the usually housewife thing, a salad is plenty for lunch, plus I have access to snacks if needed. I've tried salads for lunch at work and I'm starving 2 hours later with 2 more hours to go until another break.…
