I'm glad it's not just me!!! My normal Sure deo hasn't worked for the past month. My 20 yr old daughter has ALWAYS had BO and sweating problems, and she just made me buy some Degree Active..the strong one that releases when you sweat. Day 2 today...and IT IS WORKING!! :) Without regard to diet or health, some people just…

:o wow!!! Great work!!!

Thread the needle is WONDERFUL!! I also 2nd the TheraCane suggestion. Best $30-$40 I ever spent!

oh NO!! So sorry, Sunny Bunny! Praying she is smiling and on her way home soon!!! And that that you don't assault a Dr. :)

My husband suffers from candida / yeast type rash all over his body (he feeds it with tons of white bread, starch, and sugar....he won't listen to me :'( .) It is not supposed to be contagious, but I've gotten a tiny patch on my rib cage about 3 times (I've noticed it's where my skin touches his skin when we sleep). I…

LOVE THIS THREAD!!!! THanks for the ideas, everyone!

THANKS!!! I use it tons to season venison...and have been telling myself for a year I need to figure out the amounts for a comparable taste. You just saved me lots of time! THANK YOU!! Have a great day!

I am betting food reaction / allergy. Elimination diet (as suggested above) would be my top choice. And also second the coconut oil for relief (maybe add some lavender for soothing). Best wishes for the poor baby girl. Oh..almost forgot...using natural products in shower and a filtered shower head has helped my 11 yr old…

Voted..private...less hostility and more support. Love all the things I've learned here!

THIS!!!! Great article for all! Beautiful point..we DO deserve to be happy and healthy! Thanks for sharing!

I needed this "hug" and tough love today! Thank YOU!!!!! Yes..PMS cravings and social events kept the temptation train chugging along this weekend. I was down on myself yesterday b/c I kept giving in. TODAY IS A NEW DAY!! I am prepared with bacon, string cheese and almonds. :) WE GOT THIS, EVERYONE!!!!

Thanks, KnitOrMiss! I did add a little extra HWC to my BPC this morning, and have tracked cals like a ninja, and am at net 21 g carbs for the day. :) I remember reading on here about sweating out the extra stuff in your tummy (forgot the scientific jargon) now that you mention it. I might just have to dust off the…

We had bday lunch at work yesterday, I had to try a SMALL piece of my boss' sister's homemade Canoloni (sp?). Of course, that led to another piece, a breadstick, some cake, some ice cream, then pizza and a Twinkie for dinner. UGHHH! After 3 weeks of staying under 50 net g a day, I went crazy. My stomach is now bloated out…

I am drooling!!!!

<3 LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! Well done!!

Thanks, everyone! I DO eat lots of chicken and eggs, and love Greek yogurt. I found a low carb yogurt at the local Ruler Foods (sells Kroger food). I have a texture issue, so cottage cheese doesn't look too appealing. (My mom ate it when I was young and my memory of it is not fond.) I DO think I need to give it another…

Wow..just when I thought about giving up...you ALL came to the rescue! I have been LCHF for about 3 weeks now. COMPLETE dietary change for me. Struggling because I am NOT a huge meat fan..my protein staple has been greek yogurt and beans for years. I LOVE the way I feel though and have dropped 10 lbs. I can tell a HUGE…

I am new to LCHF as well (about 2 weeks now). I quit smoking in March 2015 and have found myself drinking 2-3 times a week since then just to take the edge off. :) I WAS a wine drinker, but have tried Crystal Light Lemonade mix and rum the past 2 weekends and it hasn't slowed my weight loss or made me feel any different.…

Hey, there. I am new to this too. I've been shooting for 35-50 net carbs/day since Aug 17. I am amazed at how much more focused I am mentally and feel less "sluggish". I am having problems sleeping, but hoping that my body will get used to this soon and that will resolve. I LOVE the unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Every…

Bump bump bu-bump! My 2nd go-round...MFP was my best friend in 2011-2012...I had the body to prove it. Now..2 years later..30 lbs later...TONS OF JIGGLE later...I'm struggling to get back in the swing of daily exercise. Hoping this will light a fire under my... :)

You are pure inspiration. Thank you. I am WOW WOW WOW'd by your transformation and THRILLED to hear you shout the truth...it comes down to nutrition and exercise. period. LOVE AND BLESSINGS!!! YOU LOOK AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:drinker: Hear, hear!!!!!!!

I posted the same issue about a year ago. (Do search on" teen daughter weight", several topics have been posted with lots of great advice). My daugher is 16, non-athletic, loves to play guitar and sing for hours, or is looking up videos on youtube learning new songs. I did get her a gym membership and she was going fairly…

Both my parents were Mules! :) I spend many summers in Bluff, as all of my grandparents lived there.

I remember going to visit my aunt in St Charles 30 years ago...it WAS farmland then! You crossed that bridge and....NOTHING! Love Soulard as well!! :)

Cape Girardeau born and bred. Sprinfgield for some college. Back to Cape. Yount and Zalma for a short time. St L (Woodson Terrace /Edmundson / St John ) for 6 years before coming back to Cape. Now in Jackson. I've moved tons...but have never left MO. I loved everyplace I lived from the country cabin built in 1864 in the…

Thank you! I have been keeping my egg shells, coffee grinds, and fruit rinds to make a rough "compost" type to sprinkle on my beds. I do have parsly and basil planted in front and back..it's kept the mosquitos away wonderfully!

^^ I think you hit the nail on the head. I am a visual person as well. I don't buy junk food I like..because if I see it, I will eat it. I even make my husband hide his "debbie cakes' for work in his dresser drawer and truck! My snacking has nothing to do with hunger either ...I could probably squeeze a few cookies in even…

:drinker: SMSU student right here (1995-1996). LOVED SPRINGFIELD!!! Good point about drinking water..only. If I add even just a wine cooler to the mix..my will power goes right out of the window. I quit smoking 1/6/12, so it's still hard to fight THAT temptation when alcohol and sitting outside in lawn chairs is invovled.

:laugh: ^^^THIS! We have 3 Drs in office this morning, but then they are all off this afternoon..so I I hope we get to leave early. Everyone's doing the minimum amount of work necessary to get patient's handled. (Well..except me..I'm back in biling office..so I'm indulging my ADD-type personality on MFP in between short…
