  • I visited Australia 3 years ago, and did try kangaroo steaks...it is cooked BARELY, leaving it mostly raw, and I do like rare steaks, so at first it wasn't a problem...it is cut maybe 2 inches thick, at first tastes ok, but a little strange, but by the time you get abut 3/4 of the way thru, it starts tasting rather…
  • bump to save this...after I have my Celiac test I will try it with gluten free flour....
  • I NEVER DUMP ANYONE....although I was recently dumped by one of my "friends"...I guess there was a misunderstanding.... actually this person commented about me drinking ONE Diet Coke...and this caused a huge "can of worms" responses....oh, well, can't keep everybody happy....
  • yeh...the night before Thanksgiving I had a craving for French bread...funny because I don't necessarily eat bread...so I looked and looked and finally found a SMALL loaf at Wallmart..only about 7 inches long...pretty small...so I had THAT for dinner...nothing else...the next day I ended up sick, with zits on my face, lips…

  • check the database a little further, I find bananas are about 100 cals... and to the OP, I eat sometimes 2 per day...I keep them and avacados in the house at all times...and eat them whenever I feel like a snack...I don't think you should limit either of these...they are much healthier than a pale lettuce salad, for…
  • be careful if you add ENSURE HIGH PROTEIN SHAKE, for extra protein..(this one is soy based)...I had a bad reaction after drinking one that warrants a warning....first of all, I have had gluten problems, and am still eating gluten in preparation of the CELIAC test, so it may also be related to this, but I had not had…
  • when I added more protein, in the way of a protein shake, it had the effect of stopping my cravings for sugar, and other things I shouldn't have...so was able to safely eat smaller amounts of these things...it made a big difference in the amount of food I ended up eating....and I NO LONGER pick something and then EAT THE…
  • I tried these last year before I started on here.....I bought 500 mg instead because they were cheaper....the bottle said 2 times per day...so I decided it was OK...I wasn't overdosing....I did not lose any noticeable weight, (however, I did lose some, in fact over the last 2 years, I have been consistantly been losing,…
  • well, I'm sure I'm gonna get flack for this, but when I go out to eat dinner, I ALWAYS GET A BAKED POTATO... I ask for the BUTTER AND SOUR CREAM on the side so I can CONTROL the amount I put on....usually I end up putting all of it on...LOL...they serve pretty good sized potatos, ...then I eat the whole thing, skin and…
  • OK, I do have something special to report about me, some of my MFP friends know this but not all, and NONE of you know this... back when I was much younger, back in 1985, I worked for a (now) famous fashion designer, and I made leather clothes for BILLY IDOL!!! my first jacket for him is on the cover of VITAL IDOL...also,…
  • OK, I have read EVERYBODIES comments...now it's MY TURN...I gained 90 lbs with my last pregnancy and thought I was WAY TOO HEAVY...I am only 4'11", so ANY weight in that amount is bad..I weighed about 200 lbs at that point... I lived in the country and had a garden and canned my own food.....one spring, I had the…

  • I have heard that some patients that have been diagnosed with IBS or Crones, actually have been mis-diagnosed..and actually are having gluten issues of some sort..stay away from wheat and other souces of gluten, to see if maybe this is what is causing your IBS symptoms....google CELIAC on the internet for more…
  • dont know much about gym YET, but I know how you feel...I started here in Aug, have a few friends on here, but most of the time get ignored...probably because I haven't been exercising....but I have been having gluten issues and have been very fatigued for about a year...just discovering the problem recently....but I have…

LOL...so who knows WHAT I really did to my body.....it was only…
