  • Ooh, I've been craving a grilled cheese. I think I'll try the bread recipe. Donuts sound good too, but I think I'd eat the whole batch, also. Found a LC brownie recipe. I'll have to cut & freeze it & only have a piece as a treat every so often.
  • Good evening/morning ladies. It finally rained! Well poured to be exact. Had a heck of a storm. Even some funnels were spotted a few miles away! Power has been out for about 31/2 hrs now. Thank goodness hubby felt generator was a necessity when we moved out here. What plants didn't blow away will be nice & wet now. @Jane…
  • I've been starving for 2 days now. Eat, then within 2 hrs starved again. Been adding extra BPC to keep fat up, as I'm trying to only eat meat/cheese which increases protein too much. I do not suffer from shark attacks, so not sure what's going on. Have thrown cals out the window & just concentrating on keeping carbs <16. I…
  • So how do we figure out numbers/macros for this? Mine is boiling away on stove right now.
  • What about avocados? I'm not fond of butter, but do 2 tbsp in my BPC every morning. It keeps me going for about 5 hrs (7:00am-12:00 or 1:00).
  • Thanks for all the hard work, Jane. Are you still taking the Rhodiola?
  • Yeah having tough time finding them in Sask., too. Walmart, Sobeys, Co-op, gas stations all no go. Have to see if daughter can check in Saskatoon at Superstore.

  • Am going to start magnesium supplement too. Is this going to skew results? Maybe just start with valerian for few weeks? (Have to wait til it gets here).

  • Hugs & prayers. So sorry to hear about this.

  • @Kitnthecat why do you leave out carrots now? Would parsnips be ok? If you're straining in the end how much carbs are actually left behind? I was going to use onion, celery, carrots, & parsnips with beef soup bones.
  • Oh hell, that's the problem then. Thursday must be where my "lint fairies" & "house cleaning brownies" are.
  • Me too (guinea pig). & where do you get it/order from?

  • I've decided my scale hates me. I was weighing Fridays, but thought I could trick it & weigh today. Well that didn't work either. Obviously I have issues with the scale also. Just wanted to let you know, you're not alone.
  • Hello ladies. Woke to ice on windshields this morning. Darn. Hope freezing temps didn't last long enough to hurt my plants. Had 2 pork chops for supper, put my protein way up. So after playing with numbers on Keto calc added in extra BPC & tea for extra fat to stay in keto. Is this right? Bone broth thread would be…
  • My son has severe anaphylaxis to all nuts & is airborne to peanuts. One of his first symptoms is severe vomiting. I would definitely be very careful around them.
  • Good morning/evening ladies. Coffee on deck ruled out due to gale force winds & rain (& it's too flippin cold). But sun is trying to peek out. @Ellen thanks for the tip. Have beef soup bones in freezer & perfect day to have some broth simmering on stove. @Janice my tomatoes aren't in ground yet either, nor my gerber (?)…
  • @janice so glad this year shows such an improvement. When do u think your labs will be back? Setting a start date for ZC seems to really be working for you. Good luck. I went to see my colitis specialist today. He told me that they have scientific proof that the old "fat is bad for you" is wrong & to just keep track of my…
  • Should have mentioned that before I started this woe, would have eaten my way thru my pantry (chips, granola bars, crackers). Tonite didn't even tempt me. Ate my way thru fridge instead,lol.
  • I just finished a "binge" 5 minutes ago. Broke down & took sleeping pill forgetting they make me extremely hungry. But I kept it LCHF - Cajun ch wings, cheese, & BP tea. 1 carb in tea. So over in fats & cals, but no worries. (I hope).
  • Do we only get charley horses in Canada? I have hard time with calcium as most is derived from oysters (shellfish allergy) & I'll look for the magnesium citrate. Thanks
  • I've been waking up with charley horses in feet & calves the past few mornings. Was waiting for blood work before I started taking anything, but maybe I should pick up some magnesium? Does it need to be with something else so we can process it?Drinking the chicken boullion keeps headaches away. As soon as I feel one coming…
  • @GrannyMayOz like the "refund". My son left home 7 yrs ago, but kept coming back. With a dog, a couple of horses, another dog, then 2 more horses. Joked to hubby at least wasn't a baby, & lo & behold he shows up with one & fiancée (be careful what u put out there). He just celebrated his b'day and we're so grateful because…
  • Happy dancing for you!
    in It works! Comment by Sk8Kate May 2015
  • Good morning ladies. @GrannyMayOz I agree with Ellen. Hard to fathom preparing for cold in July. How cold is cold? It's great you & David r able to spend this time together & enjoy each other. Still can't believe how well he's doing! Keep having fun. @Ellen so glad ZC is working. Hope you enjoyed your coffee. Have a good…
  • Hi ladies. Hope everyone had an awesome weekend. Friday I was out for the whole day, but boy did I bounce back. It was great having no migraine/crash hangover. Thinking it has to be this woe. Never have recovered so quickly before. Still have a few planters to make up & set out & 2 more beds to weed & replant, then will be…
  • Had app on my iPad. It crashed my whole ipad. Had to get my daughter get me up & running again & only way was to uninstall MFP app.
  • Wow Ellen! Good job. 2.6 in 4 days remarkable. I'm sure you've posted it elsewhere, but how r your measurements?
  • Hi Mel, feel free to add me. I have Hashimoto's (so go both hypo & hyper in cycles), struggled with PCOS for years, osteoarthritis, & recently diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. (I know sound like a wreck, hey?) I've only been doing LCHF for 30 odd days but have been feeling much better. Unfortunately today wasn't great -…
