Hi, I am Susan. I am back for my fourth month with UAC. I retired from seeing clients last October and now only administer my counseling center a few hours a month, so now I have time to make regaining my health my top priority. I have lost 75 pounds once( 2000/2001) and 85 pounds another time (2007/2008), but eventually…

@Mrs_Hoffer My coconut milk l. reuteri yogurt did not turn out so well today. The consistency was like ricotta cheese and it had a real sour tang. I tried to start with just a third of a recipe which made the agar agar hard to measure, so I think that could be the problem. I think next time I will try the recipe as the…

@whatmerunning You are correct. I got you and @biketheworld mixed up! What a case of drawing completely wrong inferences! Hopefully the general information will be helpful to someone, because the particulars are obviously way off base!

@WhatMeRunning Did you decide you would rather not discuss your binge day yesterday? I used to take a course on emotional eating called Shrink Yourself, One thing I learned was that most often when I was eating irrationally/eating emotionally (not following my rational plan) and not aware of the emotions behind it (because…

I will be doing my fourth month of the UAC in February. It is a very supportive group and has a well organized structure that encourages at least a quick daily post, and you can also add more details if you prefer to partipate more in the mutual support. I have found that although the expectations are very doable, they…

✅ Exercise: 50 minutes swimming ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 pass days used ( ) About sodium, one of the books I read recently said that if you cut out processed foods, staying beneath the sodium guidelines are just about automatic. Apparently many foods, especially bread, have a lot of sodium that we do not taste. He said not…

@Mrs_Hoffer I just received my l.reuteri from Amazon tonight. It wasn´t as expensive as he indicated. I am going to first try this version made with coconut milk instead of dairy, which you might also want to consider. https://www.luvele.com.au/blogs/recipe-blog/step-by-step-l-reuteri-coconut-yogurt-recipe I will let you…

What type of foods do you typically crave and how do you deal with it if you find it to be a negative in your life? I almost answered that I couldn´t think of anything I had craved in the past couple of months, but then I remembered yesterday seeing Keto Peanut Butter cookies that my husband had made and deciding to have…

Congratulations Calvin! So inspiring!

✅ Exercise: 40 minutes walking ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 pass days used ( ) How is it going for you? I am currently very enthusiastic about my changes in lifestyle, still probably in the ¨honeymoon phase¨ of retirement, seeking all the ways to enjoy my life and make these healthy changes fun. It has not been difficult, I…

@tahm42 I agree with the others. I have worked with children scarred physically and emotionally by being attacked by a dog. I am guessing you are the kind of person who tends to put other people´s needs ahead of your own. But in this case, it is not only your own needs, but the risk you are taking of a tragedy. You may…

✅ Exercise: 20 minutes walking, 35 minutes swimming ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 pass days used ( ) So glad to be able to get to the pool today! My son showed me a picture of the half marathon he ran in Carlsbad CA this weekend- 63 degrees Fahrenheit. I had been a little doubtful of his desire to try Keto two weeks before this…

@Mrs_Hoffer I am sorry to hear about your son. Being a mom is hard at times like this. I am praying for both of you to have peace and patience.

I do net carbs. I also have MYF set to show my sugar consumption as one of the six things and I try to keep that as low as possible (40 grams at the maximum) and have it set to show my fiber consumption as one of the six things, and try to keep that as high as possible (40 grams at a minimum.) I do not ever want to…

@hannahwinner20 I think most of us in economically developed nations do have at least a level of food addiction. I have also read that that foods we are sensitive to (the type that is IgG sensitivities, that are delayed reactions and often not considered true allergies like IgE reaccions) affect the gut in negative ways…

✅ Exercise: 90 minutes walking ✅ Calories ✅ Tracked 0 pass days used ( ) We tried that recipe I mentioned above and I found out that I actually like cooked radishes. They actually are very like potatoes with a little spiciness. The recipe also have pepperoncini peppers which I had never heard of before. They were a bit…

My meal planning has changed since I discovered the Paprika Recipe Manager 3 this past year. (The basic program is free, but to really make the best use of it I paid the extra to have it sync to all my devices). Part of the excitement of changing a lifestyle for me is to try new recipes-- and prior to this year I had never…
