  • That must be a error I made, it really is a seagull.... LOL! Dan

  • Don't forget you have a distinctly different microbiome in your mouth (different from your stomach). You might try some "natural" toothpaste without the fluoride and other chemicals. I buy mine at Fresh Thyme, but sure you can find some online and/or at other whole foods stores. I hope this helps, Dan the Man from Michigan…
  • YUP, you got that right! I can tell when I am going to have a whosh, is when I pee a lot at night. Usually the biggest losses through water are when I water fast for 36 hrs. Dan
  • At night before bedtime, it will help you sleep. And you're most likely to get a leg cramp early in morning, so that will help prevent them... Dan
  • Very good. That saying is a picture from a fortune cookie that I got when I first started the diet. I have lived this way all my life, and keto is no exception. Dan the Man from Michigan
  • YUP! Thank you! I actually put them in a gigantic jar, threw some kombucha, water, tea, and sugar in it. I want them to revive them a little before I feed them to my plants, biochar and compost..... :happy: Dan
  • BTW, not all types of magnesium will serve your purpose. They all work differently in your body. So even though the top ranked magnesium was pure, as advertized, etc, it still might not be the one best for you. For me, Mag citrate works the best. Here is a good website for you to get the right kind of mag: Different Forms…
  • A pound and 1/2 is a very small amount, I personally have swung 6-8 pounds of water weight (after a fast) in a 24-36 hour period (I had this happen multiple times). So, 1 1/2 pounds in a week isn't barely anything to worry about. A cup of water is 1/2 pound. So that's a mere 3 cups of water. A few things that cause water…
  • I can't believe anyone told you about the special keto diets/workout ~ that even have acronyms!?

  • That's basically how I make them! Very yummy! Bacon Wrapped Baked Stuffed Jalepenos Dan

  • Rotisserie Pig!
  • Awesome! Thank you for posting. The one I was using was a D+. I might switch to the top one. The top one cost .09 per pill, mine was .05 per pill. You get what you pay for. Lower price sometimes = lower quality. Dan
  • I'm in zone 6, southern Michigan. I planted like 3 or 4 dozen plants (I like pickles). I'll count them tonight. Dan the Man from Michigan
  • Avoid artificial no-calorie sweeteners. Go lower on your carbs, higher on the fat. Dan
  • Keep it up. You're adjusting well. It will get even better the lower you go with your carbs... Welcome to the group. Dan the Man from Michigan
  • Update pics of my garden: All compost from neighbor in. This was 5/21/2016 Since I have had deer wipe out my garden, I erected a deer fence/trellis. I put it at 45 degrees to not block morning/evening sun. And deer are less likely to attempt a jump when slanted (my theory). Here is a pic of that: (brocolli planted) Pic…
  • "Just Like Sugar" Inulin All fiber. Tastes very good. Healthy. Yes, it looks expensive, but you don't use much and mine has lasted for more than a month. I bought the one for baking (cheaper) but it doesn't mix like tabletop sugar. I stick blend it into my yogurt and milk kefir everyday. I think I will purchase the…
  • Eat pickles. Low carb, cheap, tasty and have a lot of good electrolytes in them. Fermented pickles are good too. Dan
  • LOL! Here is a pic I took when I first saw an Atkins bar at Walmart, I first looked at the MAcros and they weren't too bad. But you have to look at the ingredients too: Actually, half of the ingredients are vitamins. But it is a highly processed food. I'm moving towards less "highly processed" foods to more natural, home…
  • Just a thought, with that many allergic issues, do you also any of the following digestive problems?: acid reflux, diarrhea, constipation, IBD, IBS, Crohn's, c'dif? If you do, you should start reading/googling/YouTubing: Gut microbiome GAPS diet Dr. Perlmutter Gut Microbiota Leaky gut syndrome ANd even if you don't have…
  • I'm not thinking you're talking about this forum. Be forewarned that you can't badtalk other MFP forums here in this forum (it against the rules of posting). Maybe you're talking about a totally different place on the internet. What I've learned over the years is that its very rare for people to search for the truth.…

  • I remember when I was taking it, it changed over to the generic. The pills smelled like poop. I questioned them and they said they had heard similar comments from other patients. I only had diarreah at the start, but after a few days, it was not a problem. Subsequently, I don't take them anymore, since I started the…
  • Looks delicious. But did I miss something? What is the name of this bread and what is the recipe? Or do you have a website with the recipe? Thank you... Dan the Man from Michigan
  • The above, couldn't have said it better myself... Once you start eating 70-80 % fat, you won't need inbetween snacks. It's a nice freedom you get from low carbing...
  • Also review the ingredients before buying, if you can't pronounce them, you should probably put them back... Dan the Man from Michigan
  • It's a well known fact when going low carb, that your cholesterol will go up until you lose the weight and go into maintenance. Cholesterol goes up any time there is inflammation in your body (as others have said). Even vigorously exercising before the test will have high levels. A tooth ache will cause it. Gut permibility…
  • Yea, when I was taking insulin, 331 lbs, diabetic, I took 50-60 units of fast acting insulin after each meal, and 60 units of the solastar before bed. Did this for many years. After one month of Keto, I stopped all diabetic meds, insulin, including glipizide, and stopped taking blood pressure med and cholesterol med…
