I live in Georgia and love love love a good biscuit with my breakfast so that has been the hardest. I was drinking my coffee black (for several years now) but now do it with 1 tbsp of coconut oil, 1 tsp of butter and 1 scoop of BPI Keto Bomb creamer. I bought an immersion hand blender and make my coffee up every morning…

I am also in need of friends to help keep me accountable and encouraged. My son has been doing Keto for over a year. I just started on around the 13th of this month.

Hi and welcome to MFP! I log in regularly so feel free to add me if you wish. :)

I don't like her or hate her. Never watch her show. That damn southern drawl of hers is just poured on a little too thick for my taste, Yall! *grimace* But she should be advocating life style changes and not just pills since she is a public figure. But ah well. I know those drug companies are just lovin' her , y'all!!

Guess I need to Google Monsanto because I am clueless. But no I do not trust government agencies. There is always a political motive or a financial one or both

I cant wait until Spring here in New Hampshire... I grow over 14 varieties of tomatoes, 10 varieties of peppers, three types of cucumbers, fresh herbs up the ying-yang.... I had some sexy Black Russians so huge, that a slice filled an omelet for TWO PEOPLE.... OHHHHH baby! [/quote] We want to grow a garden but can 't find…

Your stomach has to produce a new layer of mucus every two weeks, otherwise it will digest itself.

so what exactly is the difference between primal and paleo?

I am brand new to it. Haven't officially started yet. Reading reading reading at a variety of paleo sites to gear up to start this journey.

I looked into it but chose not to follow that path for my own reasons but I have a friend that lost 90 pounds by making the commitment to the eat clean lifestyle.

that is very aweosme! Way to go!!! Very inspirational. thanks :)

Thanks! I am sure I won't follow the Paleo diet in it's strictest form but my husband's doctor wanted him to go gluten free and I have been reading a while about how all the processed foods and grains we eat aren't good for us and can sabotage our health and efforts to lose weight. I looked into the eat clean diet but it…

There's good info on the Eating clean lifestyle at thegraciouspantry.com as well as eatcleandiet.com. I was going to give it a try but I am giving up grains so this one which has about 1/4 of your food intake as grains was not for me. The Gracious pantry has a good page of beginner info. And if you can't go all the way…

thank you. I am also scale shopping and I don't need bells and whistles. Just need to see what I weight once a week, lol.

oh my gosh! I don't think I'll EVER be able to drink that much water. :(

had already tried that before asking. Not seeing it anywhere dear. Do we have to be friends for me to see it?

Thank you thank you!!!!

oh ok. I used to have a Photobucket acct. Not sure what I ever did with it. Guess I could start a new one, lol.

me too, lol.

I'm a 44 y.o. wife, and mom needing to lose 100+ pounds. Is there a group to join for us or is this just a thread ?

I am sorry but how do I get to your blog? Did I miss the link somewhere?

how do we add pictures in a post?

thank you! Didn't think to look online. I live in a small town so health food stores are not here There is one in a town or so over but doesn't seem to be managed well or stocked well either. Again thanks.

So we have Henry County, Douglas County Cobb County and Bartow County. :) Douglas is the closest. Bartow is about 45 mins from me. My step son and grandkids live there as well as my hubby's ex wife. Occasionally I travel up there to do an appraisal.

ok yeah. that's more my neck of the woods! lol. Lived there for 20 years. :)

hmmm no clue where that is. I live in Carroll County, west of Atlanta

yep!

So what do you use rather than canola oil or veg oil to cook with? I can't find coconut oil at my local grocery store ??

rofl!!! Love this. I own St. Bernards so it is hard for us to get out the door without dog hair AND drool. *sigh* But I love my big ole babies.
