Yesterday was my birthday. As soon as I got off work, nights, my husband, daughter and I went to an expo down in LA. I was totally committed to staying consistent. Had just completed my fast, 6pm to 6am, and was ready to go enjoy the show. We got breakfast, I had 2 eggs and some bacon, and off we went. So far so good. Get to the expo and it's awesome. We walk around for a few hours, by this time it's 1 pm and they're hungry. They get nachos and a coke. I'm good, don't get anything. We were at the expo from about 10:30 am to 3 pm and we're ready to leave. At this point I have been up for 19 hours. On our way home, we go to little Tokyo. I lost it. I love Japanese sweets. I have been dreaming of these for years. Last time we were there was about 8 years ago. I spent most of my birthday money on sweets, and got a steamed red bean bun that I haven't had since I was in high school 20 years ago. Like I said, dreaming for years. We also stopped at Mr. Ramen. It was amazing. We get home about 5 and I have been up for 21 hours. I ate some of my sweets in the car and was ready to crash. The sweets I got were for the three of us, so I didn't go nuclear, but definitely could've had more control. It'll take a week to get back to where I was, but I regret nothing.

I'm not trying it because it's some superfood I heard about, I'm trying to get healthy so I need to try new things other than pizza and chocolate. I bought it because I thought it would be like spinach if I cooked it in a certain way and now it's still taste the same. The whole insert about celery was no matter what I do…

Just made them. They were a bit crumbly. Not sure if that's normal. On the plus the frosting tastes like chocolate cheese cake.

Both. I made sure to avoid most carbs. Did have a bagel and some cereal but I do work out. I made sure to buy a food scale, and I'm sure that had a big impact on my results.

I'm a little confused. Do you always eat vegan or are you inquiring about a rarer meal? Are you going to be doing Vegan Keto? If so, please come back in a few months and let us know how that went. quote] no, I'm no vegan, it was just a new place that we went into. First time I've had vegan food and since they didn't have a…

The pills are for broken sleep. I work over nights and take care of my daughter is the day. Take her to school, sleep a few hours, pick her up, dinner, homework, sleep till work. Still, mattress adjustment may be nice.

hey, I'm new-ish. just found out I'm insulin resistant so doc has me on a low carb diet. unsure of diets, since I never had much luck, but finding out about being insulin resistant makes sense. anyone know of low card way of living or what paleo is? been looking online but not understanding much.
