  • Ok, I bit and took a look. It appears to be based on 17 compliant patients. I didn't dive too far into the sales site to see how many patients there were originally, nor what exactly caused a patient to be deemed non-compliant. I will say that it's certainly good news for those 17 individuals though. Additionally, I…
  • Haha! I didn't even notice the title, and I'm usually pretty eagle eye about those things. It's a pretty stealth typo, I give it an A. I appreciate that you are as offended by the (READ ME) as I am. Everyone got so excited with their MOAR MEAT GMO SOY RAWR that they ignored the most terriblest awfulest very baddest thing.…
  • OFF WITH YOUR HEAD!
  • If eliminating all cholesterol from your diet would ensure not having the condition/disease, that would be one thing. But, alas, it can still come about even if you don't eat cholesterol. You can, perhaps, lower your risk... but new research is suggesting that causal link between consuming dietary cholesterol and serum…
  • It's ok to eat cholesterol, you know. You may not want to, and that's cool. Or maybe your doctor told you not to, and hey, always a good idea to listen to a doctor you trust, so that's cool. But aside from that, the fact that ALL animal products--ALL--that is A - L - L -- I mean, EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM--contain…
  • I use 'strc prst skrz krk' on another forum. I feel all hated now. It's Czech. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strc_prst_skrz_krk :)
  • Ok, NOW this thread is earning the (READ ME) label.
  • You have utterly abused the use of (READ ME). I am going to deliberately never, ever replace any meat with a vegetarian substitute for this reason alone. I had a recipe for red bean lasagna saved, but now? When Hades freezes over. Congratulations.
  • Somehow I almost never see it on this forum, but the only thing I have ever reported on any forum, ever, in my life (and I have been online since the late 80s), is spam. edit: Haha, actually, I take that back. I also once reported the new account of a guy on a hockey board who had been banned because he was an insufferable…
  • I have an inkling on how difficult it can be to see things in a different light, and I wish you the most sincere congratulations on coming this far. You're doing great, and I wish you continued success in maintaining this healthy outlook :) If you still have the plan, use it! If not, I imagine your therapist will be able…
  • Glad to hear that you're interested in eating a more nutritionally sound diet! I'm surprised that when you were hospitalized they didn't outline a plan for you to follow, or at least give you some suggestions. Coming off 400-600 calories a day, I'm afraid you probably will gain weight as you increase your calories. You've…
  • Most weekends my daughter is with her dad, so on Saturdays I turn on Super Slug Mode. That means I get up around maybe noon or 1 pm (maybe even later!), use the wash room, go sit at the computer for several hours. I may wander around the house a bit, to the kitchen, to the bathroom, but basically I sit on my butt. In the…
  • That orange juice is delicious!
  • I'm not a dog person, but we have a pug and he's pretty rad. He basically just likes to eat and sleep, with the occasional bit of goofiness thrown in just so you know he's alive. He snorts, farts, eats like pig (no coincidence that pig and pug are just one letter off!), and snores like a champ. Basically, he's a furry kind…
  • Oh man, Leanora, your Grandpa sounds just like my dad! Did he have Lewy Body dementia as well? We try to laugh too, because sometimes it's just such a silly illness... Years ago, before I moved in with them, my dad one night collected a whole bunch of clothing out of my mom's dresser and brought it all to her, asking if…
  • It is wonderful to read that you're starting to bloom! I guess in a sense you can think of some of your caregiving experiences as your 'fertilizer'-- It was kind of warm and comforting, and at the same time it kinda stunk, but in the long run it has helped you grow and become more strong. :flowerforyou: My father was…
  • Crazy that people are getting so upset about this. When you do an activity that is out of your norm--even if it isn't formal exercise--you are burning more calories than normal. You are creating a larger deficit. Now, mercy knows that no one is allowed to eat under TDEE -20% or the gremlins will molest them, so yeah, this…
  • What I really like about pizza is actually the cheese, so I have a little make-do that I make up when the craving hits and I can't/won't just have regular pizza. Flat-Outs makes these little slider bun things... they're three on a 'sheet' and the whole sheet is like 150 calories (and actually decent in protein, given it's…
  • If by "this place" you mean "planet Earth," I am so with you. Also, I'm not sure if you meant sycophants or psychopants, but they are both ridiculously good words, in their own ways :)
  • I think it opens to the last tab I had open. It would drive me crazy to have a bunch open all at once!
  • You sound awesome yet terrifying. :flowerforyou:
  • My thoughts? "Good luck." :flowerforyou:
  • Nice graph and nice app! I like to look at numbers.
  • No, I definitely wouldn't be mad, but I might say something jokey about it... which, if they'd already heard a day's worth of jokey comments, might not seem so funny to them... lol. :)
  • Again, I'm no expert, and I'm mainly replying so that the topic stays live and people who know better than I do will come and chime in, lol :) That said: It sounds like you are trying to lose weight, get fit, and build up strength all at the same time. It seems to be working and you don't feel overwhelmed, and that's good.…
  • You will meet your goal of losing weight by eating at a deficit, with or without exercise. The goal of the cardio should be primarily cardiovascular health. It actually sounds to me like you may be working out too much, but I'm no expert on that.
  • Well. Don't voice them if you don't want people to go on ahead and controvse right back at ya, y'know? Seems kinda self evident to me. "I am going to say something a lot of people don't like!" *a lot of people don't like what you've said and let you know* "Well, my goodness, I was just stating a controversial opinion, you…
  • Whoa, whoa, let's not get crazy here and swing the other way. It isn't always about how much work is put in. The worst thing about threads like these is that ultimately judgy begets judgy :(
  • I'm growing weary of the phrase 'body shaming,' but far more weary of the action. C'mon guys, we're better than this.
  • Immediately upon waking: Twoish cups of black/no sugar coffee and one slice of turkey lunch meat (as I make my daughter's lunch). A little later, my official breakfast: a clove of garlic minced and lightly sauteed in coconut oil, then scrambled into three eggs with ~30g of finely chopped spinach. Today I added a half cup…
