I have never heard of green lipped mussels. Is there a brand you recommend? I'm assuming you take it in supplement form.

Well I see they still have not enabled email notification. Such a basic thing to do on a forum like this. At least they say it is coming. Anyhow my appointment was disappointing. The pain in my knee is because I have no knee, it's bone on bone. He said if I were 60 he would recommend knee replacement but I'm really young…

This is looking a lot nicer. I still have not found the email notification but they say they have it now.

Glad you did not get sick Heronh. We had a nice weekend. I made a doctors appointment for in the morning. My knee has really been bothering me. I'm hoping maybe a cortisone shot will do the trick. It worked really well for my hip when I was having pain.

Oh crap I forgot about doing a hangout tonight. My wife just got back in town after 3 weeks gone so we have been catching up this weekend. Could we do a hangout next Sunday? Sorry all! John good for you for doing it without meds. I got off all of mine, the meds are worse than the problems. Of course pain meds never worked…

Yep October is my favorite month.

Good morning all, I have not been on the last few days and when I'm not on, odds are I am not doing good with my eating. lol I will be lucky if I maintain this week. To much weekend fun. I have decided not to continue with the low carb, I am just going to stick to what works for me and what I know. I found myself obsessing…

Weighed in a day early this week because my team is on Thursday night football tonight. Being in Ohio and a Redskins fan I don't get to see the games that often so it's a treat and will be a treat night. I maintained this week despite doing really well, but that happens. Next week should be good. :-) I am going to get some…

I like the mini omelet idea! I am going to do that!

Good to see you around Kevin, I would maybe do some nuts, fruit and cheese for breakfast if I couldn't cook something. I never find the morning too rushed that I can't make some eggs and coffee though. :-)

You should try the cream in the eggs Mark it adds a little something to them. Sorry about your honey crop, what a bummer.

I couldn't decide this morning whether the chicken or the egg came first so I ate them both. Does anyone use heavy cream to make your scrambled eggs? It is really a good way to make them fluffy and add some flavor. Scrambled eggs with chicken thigh and habanero cheese mixed in was breakfast today. I will probably just hang…

Things going good here. I really struggled today and almost went with eating a lot tonight while out with friends. I made good choices though and had 5 wings a side salad with ranch and 1 tall beer. Did pretty good all around on carbs, calories and protien. However I needed more veggies today. Happy with the choice to do…

Good Friday morning everyone. Good week for me I dropped 4 lbs. I am also now back at 200 lbs lost! Everyone have a great weekend.

Things went well today eating wise. I was at 99 for my protein Heronh. LOL I tried heavy cream in my coffee this morning. Bleck not for me I like my coffee black the way it was intended. lol I did pick up some Kerrygold butter and that is yummy. I also got some good cheese that is natural. Trying to do the natural stuff…

Interesting links John. It's hard for me to drop what I've been taught all along but it's worth thinking on and researching. Thanks for the advice Heronh. My protein was really high the past two days because I bought a whole chicken and ate half each day. I will have to try to watch that. Stacy, what were your biggest…

Beautiful cool day in the 60s here with clouds. I love days like this. I hate sun all the time. Doing good eating this week and weight is going down. I hope with watching the carbs this week that I might see a jump in pounds lost. I am so ready to be out of the 290s and into the 280s. I have wasted the whole summer just…

Kevin so sorry to hear that your wife miscarried. I'm sure there will start looking up and this is just a valley that you two will soon be out of. I stayed at 87 carbs today. I must say upping my fat and eating more meat does help with the hunger. You can take a look at my diary today and tell me what you all think. I have…

Yes it was good taking with you all. I learned a lot. John how bout Da Bears! I stopped watching, now I wish I hadn't.

Here is the link for the hangout. https://plus.google.com/hangouts/_/g73fbtk36omraz5mvdcx5yfuyya

Where did he PM me? I did not get any messages. I did go back and get the email you used from the last hangout with Carol so I will include that in the hangout invite

I have not watched it yet, I am going to watch it after the football game this afternoon. Yes please email me your gmail address. I will post the link to hangout here too so if we missed anyone they can try to join.

I do have prime and will watch that this weekend. It will give me something to talk about Sunday on our hangout. I have done lousy this week and I'm sure will be back up on the scales. My wife and I are both trying to get back in the grove and finding it tough. I really need to kick it in gear I want this last 60 lbs gone.

I will have to look into some of those books. I do struggle with believing just a few views vs. the masses but I am open minded and willing to look and learn. I do ignore some of the stuff we were taught like the whole egg yolk thing. I have been eating eggs for years with no problems. I am also not a Nazi when it comes to…

Sounds good then hopefully we can get a good group going. 8pm EST Sunday it is. Did really well with eating yesterday but sucked Saturday, I ended up having two treat days. Like Mark was saying those treat days are easy to let bleed into the next day. I counted calories and keep track though so I'm working on lowering my…

Sounds like good therapy John, that must be rough to go through. As for eating, I still eat a lot of crap even though I continue to lose weight. I'm still not sure if I want to switch to paleo type diet but I do want to add more natural food in. I need to work that for sure. 8pm EST on Sunday works for me. How about we…

It does sound intriguing Mark. I was talking to my wife and we are on the fence. I don't know we may have to try it for a couple of months and see what happens.

Hey John I was saying 1000 EST so that would 9 your time. But I can do earlier on Sun - Tue or Thur. Fri and Sat are out for me and Wed would have to be 10 EST. So I'm curious as to what made you all choose the low carb or paleo diet? Do you feel better than just eating healthy and in moderation? I have always done the…

Your video feed was not the best quality but even that came through ok and your sound was fine. The only thing I noticed was maybe a 2 to 3 second lag when you were asked something before you would answer but not bad at all. So if any others are interested what would be a good night? 10pm EST works for me about any night.…

Well unofficially I'm down this week a little. I'm looking forward to seeing how much it will be for tomorrows weigh in. I only had the one blip this week that was a pizza date night. I had a great time meeting all you guys last night. It's fun to put a voice with the faces. I wouldn't mind doing an unrecorded hangout…
