The best one I have found is Cinnamon Bark Extract. You can get it in most supplement stores. It cost $8-$10 for a 1 ounce bottle with a dropper top. Use 2 drops of cinnamon extract per liter of your drinking water. It levels your blood sugar and prevents food cravings between meals. Honestly, it really works for me. You'd…

Vegan Rice Protein Since I am sensitive to milk, gluten, and just about everything else, I use NutriBiotic Vegan Rice Protein. I get it on Amazon. Here's the link:…

To those who wonder about getting complete protein on a vegan diet: I recently checked this out. There are many sites that explain how to get the complete amino acids in protein. Here's the simplest one I found. It just involves eating certain combinations, like beans and rice; but there are complete-protein veggies like…

I also, recently, made a drastic change in my diet. I felt so bad all the time and would get rapid heartbeat after eating (this was all my life). I cut out gluten, dairy, went organic, and anti-inflammatory foods. I felt better and better and now I feel great most days! I blame the gluten for most of my problems and I've…

I went on a raw food diet for almost a month. It's a full time job. I was constantly making trips to the market for fresh veggies, etc. Then prepping (juicing, cleaning, cutting up, etc) them to be ready when needed... I bought 2 books on the benefits of raw eating and tried to follow them. I didn't lose any weight, but I…

Gaining 10 pounds in 4 weeks is NOT muscle. How many body builders can gain 10% of their body weight with muscle in a month, even when stuffing themselves and with extreme supplementation? Something else must be going on, either a change in diet (more salt) or other systemic change. I would diligently log your food, then…

Do some research on dandelion root tea. It is supposed to be a "liver cleanser". Here is a site to get you started. http://www.thepracticalherbalist.com/component/content/article/40-herbal-encyclopedia/46-dandelion-the-liver-cleanser.html I drink it every day x3. It's really good with organic hibiscus flowers or other…

The combination of spices in this recipe looks a little strange, but you gotta try it! This stuff is delicious and easy to make! Chicken Chili With a Kick 1 lb. ground chicken breast (or turkey) 1 cup chopped onion 1 can Italian style diced tomatoes 1 cup tomato sauce 1 cup water 4 tsp chili powder 2 tsp Worcestershire…

I buy boneless skinless chicken thighs and run them through my meat grinder. They make the best burgers! Moist with a wonderful texture. The ground meat takes on any flavor you want to make it. I also use the ground thigh meat in any recipe that calls for any type of ground meat. Great in spaghetti, meatloaf, tacos and…

I checked out your diary. I can't support the way you eat, but would like to let you know if you continue like you are, you could have heart failure by the time you are 25 (or younger). Your organs need nutrition! Get some counseling or join an ED support group.

Wow! You are so lucky to find this out young. I'm 65yo and just discovered what made me feel awful all the time. See my other post and profile. Good Luck.

OMG! This was me about 3 months ago. I have always had a rapid, hard heartbeat after eating (most of the time). I was feeling so terribly awful some days that I swear anybody else that felt that bad would think they were seriously dying. The doctor would just dismiss it, thinking I was exaggerating. Finally I had to do…

I've had that type of thing happen to me as well. Out of the blue, someone you have never seen before says something rude about your appearance. To avoid appearing defensive in addition to being fat, I just totally ignore them.

If that's all that was on a pizza, it wouldn't be a bad thing to eat. I can think of a few things on a commercial pizza which I no longer eat. Sodium nitrites/nitrates in almost all meats used on a pizza. Regular cheeses, not the low fat versions we usually buy for home use. I've had pizza swimming in oil from who knows…

Yep, i just edited my reply, then noticed yours.

http://www.tgifridays.com/nutrition.pdf This has everything on the menu including drinks at the second to last page. Edit: Oops, no alcoholic drinks listed. OMG! Some of their entrees are loaded with salt like Jack Daniel’s Black Angus Rib-Eye & Grilled Shrimp Scampi 5800mg sodium!!!! Be careful what you order or it will…

If you haven't eaten one of those monstrosities for 6 months, believe me it will make you sick. Maybe that would be a good way to get rid of that fantasy in your head. Just eat one. Be sure to eat all the trimmings as well. It would only take one time!

I always feel guilty... about something.

Try eating some complex carbs or get yourself a good protein powder. Protein and complex carbs last longer in your body. Sugar is like a flash in the pan. An instant rush, then crash. Round out your diet.
