Try and have a calm honest talk about how you are feeling. I've been where you are and I blew through tons of money and gained 60 pounds all in the hope that I would find some happiness in life. It didn't work. I think men sometimes don't realize that we wives and mothers have needs too. Either they will get it and not…

I'm thinkin' crack head. But hey freedom of speech. Doesn't make it right but it is what it is.

My vacuum broke yesterday. Solved that problem.

That is amazing! If you can do that you can do anything!

Getting a SCOBY and making this stuff is on my to do list. It's weird but I like it but it's too spendy to buy on a regular basis.

It's the bomb. Unsweetened 25 calories 1 carb. I think it's Silk brand.

I go through this stupid cycle. I eat on track for a time and then I get this thinking error that says "you've lost weight and you have learned a lot so it's ok to start slowly adding things back in". I get past 50 carbs and I start eating the wallpaper. I used to think it was all in my head like I could have the willpower…

Awesome someone who likes crude humor! Count me in! I've been on here for 185 days straight and it had been a lifesaver.

Goals for the month....move more, the weather has finally cooled it's time to get out and see the world.....weigh myself less, I'm not going to weigh all month....it has become compulsive and it must stop!

The doc I work for shares office space with an endocrinologist. I overheard someone say "I can't wait to get my insulin pump then I can eat whatever I want". Alrighty then!

Chicken breasts today are as big as the turkey ones when I was a kid in the seventies. Go big or go home!

A pinch of sugar balances out the acidic nature of the tomatoe. My mom used to do that with spaghetti and homemade tomatoe soup too. I myself do not

The doc I work for prescribes them all the time. There are so many compounds that can be created by a knowledgable pharmacist that they can be fine tuned to fit the individual needs of the patient. Most everyone swears they are life changing.

At 8 months in I am on auto pilot when grocery shopping. Makes life so much easier. What is still a challenge and probably always will be is when family shoves food in my face that no longer interests me. I feel bad but it truly does not interest me to eat things that are not conducive to my health.

Yes to magnesium!

Diet Mt Dew with a shot of heavy cream. Sounds weird I know but I'd rather have that than coffee with cream.

Cashew milk is also good. 25 cal per cup and 1 carb. Good with cocoa powder and a tiny bit of AS. Have also used it with low carb protein powders and mixed it with a splash of sugar free Torani coffee syrup. Or I love it just plain. I actually hate milk so this is good.

Lost 42 pounds so far and have more energy and focus than ever. I'm hitting the downhill slide with only 20 lbs to go. Need friends so we can continue to cheer each other on until goal!!!

Oregon.....go Ducks or Beavs whichever. Anyway I'm 5' 5" and twenty pounds to goal as well.

This is Otto the Boston and Moose the Puggle. I give Otto his phenobarbital twice day in bread. Such a cute little pain he is. Maybe I should try cat $:::t. !!!!

40 lbs and counting :#

I am starting the C25K tomorrow. I've lost 40 lbs with 20 to goal and I have been wanting to do this. Need serious motivation. :#

I work in a clinic that treats opiate addiction. Without opiates the person goes into physical withdrawal. Opiates are physically addicting. From brain scans that I have seen cocaine and sugar light up the same pathways in the brain. Cocaine however is not physically addicting like opiates such as heroin. Withdrawal…

A 100 gram serving of crickets has 5.1 carbs. Just a bit of useless trivia. Have a wonderful time and enjoy all the interesting protein choices China has to offer!

Surprisingly there's no people in it.

I think about food constantly too but I turned it around to thinking about what good food I need to fuel my body. So I'm still a little obsessive but in a good way now. I stopped thinking about what I couldn't have and got creative with what is helping me lose this weight. Power through....you can do this!!!

Ok so I have noticed an interesting hunger pattern. On the weekends I can eat my normal breakfast and not be hungry until dinner. During the week though at work I eat the same breakfast and feel like I'm going to naw off my hand by lunch. I drink lots of water and a cup of coffee but I don't know what it is. Also I can…

Well my actual name is Julie but my husband calls me Gnulie and it makes me smile. Does anyone remember the gnews with Gary gnu? Ya well I find humor in the dumbest stuff ha ha.

I just made those cream cheese pancakes but I doubled the recipe and added a 1/4 cup of almond flour. They are delicious and you could add in fruit or avocado or whatever.
