  • ummmmmm that is exactly what low-carb is.... but it also means keeping it at a reasonable level of intake as well.
  • Do yourself a favor - call that doctor's office up and ask for a referral to a Registered Dietician (not sure if there is a different name in Australia - sorry) that specializes in pt's with Insulin Resistance/Low carb intakes. There is absolutely NO reason why that office should have let you go until you received all of…
  • OK.. you live in Ponteix, SK... you do have options as its not as small as you may come to think: Livestock Lamb's Angus (306) 625-3745 Davidson Gelbvieh (306) 625-3755 You can most certainly talk with them about any deals for purchasing meats in bulk. Thats pretty easy... Scully’s AG Foods (306) 625-3332 Im pretty sure…
  • Before I recommend anything, could you be more specific. It would help greatly where what your definition is could greatly vary from the others here... What is your definition of 'simple'... What is your definition of 'exotic'....
  • Favorite condiment for beef: my homemade chimichurri sauce Favorite condiment for chicken: my homemade Dos Equis BBQ sauce with a little extra lime Favorite condiment for Seafood: SRIRACHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Favorite condiment for Pork: my homemade season-rub made into a paste and slow roasted until its like candy!!!!!!!!
  • Didnt realize you posted this twice... but.... I had posted suggestions on the other thread you started. Clipped from duplicate thread: Well.... you have to be good at researching which stores give you the better deals, or perhaps check out your local Sams or BJs, or Costcos even. I dont spend any more money on fresh food…
  • Well.... you have to be good at researching which stores give you the better deals, or perhaps check out your local Sams or BJs, or Costcos even. I dont spend any more money on fresh food at all. Every three months I purchase bulk meats that I clean at home (half a cow, half a pig, whole roaster chickens, whole turkeys,…
  • BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA Its ok hun.... 8-)
  • ever make your own bacon??? Im telling ya - its incredible!!!!!

  • ***looks down her shirt and see boobies
  • Good times....... good times...... lol
  • Basically it boils down to: If it came from a box and you can reheat it, add milk and butter to it and cook it, use a microwave to reheat and eat it.... If it came from a can and you just plop, heat and it (or in my husband's case right from the can)... Keep foods fresh.... if you want Turkey Chili, make that bad-boy from…
  • I would like to extend an invite to any of you not already over there. We have a group called "Low Carber Daily Forum" where Atkins, South Beach, Paleo, Primal, medical-advisement of low carb intakes can come and be welcomed. We have a great group of members who give wonderful support, and of course, food porn at your…

Out of my job, I review cases of patients who are opting for anything within the weight-loss category: RD visits, Bariatric MD visits, Bariatric Surgical procedures, etc. Im the one who will get a Case Manager from the pt's insurance on the…

  • But there are specialty physicians out there who do recommend Atkins-style intake that have acquired RD credentials.. so clearly its not that bad. I have many diabetic patients who significantly reduced their A1c by following Atkins approach where clearly, diabetic patients are often counseled on the types of carbs to…
  • Perhaps the Personal Trainer would like to "clean up" the mess that happens when I try to eat something being awake after 10 minutes.. its projectile. Not very lady-like... Coffee for me first...
  • The only way things backfire is when the person willingly decides to eat foods they shouldnt be, or too much of.... thats the only way it backfires...
  • Sorry but I work with numerous physicians who could vouch that this is extremely sustainable. There is a Podiatrist in our group who lives low-carb, is an avid runner who enjoys a good workout... There is an Endocrinologist in our network who highly recommends low-carb intakes to her patients. It IS sustainable because a…
  • Another thing to consider, in addition to the other posts, is that you might need to change the batteries....
  • Not only do I have PCOS, I have developed a metabolic issue that they cant pinpoint any name to it... talk about LAB RAT! I also work in a 300+ physician network where we have support groups for women with PCOS and Im glad to be one of the folks who coordinate them along with a Nurse Practitioner.... I spent a great number…
  • I eat four reasonable meals per day, one snack, tons of water, a must to have my coffee.... Im also under doctor's guidance for the time being as I have some medical conditions they just cant seem to pinpoint a diagnosis on. Nothing in my home will ever be prepackaged, processed, junk type foods. I clean my own meats (last…
  • From what I see, you use alot of packaged items (I see alot of name brands listed), you use those same items almost all the time, and there is just not enough variety at all of real foods, particularly vegetables...... Where are they???????? Youre daily caloric intake is not consistent. - in fact today, you ate way too…
  • Back in the day, I was proficient with Clarinet Bassoon Flute Bari Sax Piano Auxillary Percussion. Today I am a Bassoonist with two symphonic performing groups... and I love it
  • You really need to get rid of the scale.... Grab some measuring tape and measure... thats a much better and more accurate way to determine loss.. Also how youre clothes feel.. If you keep getting hung up on the scale, youre gonna stress yourself out with a flood of cortisol and then you end up gaining that weight back...
  • Youre lucky you could grab 8-Ball... I have yet to find it here in New England where its a new hybrid... I dont think we have the right climate for it to be honest... but, glad to know someone had a chance to bask in the food pornage of 8-ball squash!
  • From a GI perspective (I work in healthcare), I can definitely vouch for the other comments here pertaining to the grain-family. The GI system is the Absorption-Train, digesting, breaking down and absorbing. Everything from "top" to "botton", the GI system works constantly. Im proud to say our group is 100%…
  • Im a fan of Light Cream in my coffee.. It doesnt feel 'heavy' when I have it...

  • Going/netting below 1200 should be a discussion held with your primary care physician and/or specialist who is overseeing your health. MFP is not a medical resource that has access to your health history.. so give the doctor's office a call. Secondly... protein is the ideal recovery item to have when strength training is…
