If you have some braggs apple cider vinegar that helps me add it to some water or juice. But if its a gassy bloat I would try some water and a little baking soda.

I have been doing something similiar but without the banana. I use oatmeal or even flax meal. I add prunes, dates, apples, whatever fruit sounds good, add nuts, water, and baking powder to them. Makes a yummy pancake I make an apricot compote kinda topping for it.

A trigger for me is sugar. I can do honey and other natural sugars with no problems. But I have sugar and I will be craving sugary and carb foods for a week or so. It is very hard to resist. So I try to stick with honey when I can.

I have my own issues with sugar and did some reading. I wonder if it is a chemical sensitivity that you are reacting to. All sugar is treated with chemicals in the processing. Beat Sugar processing has actually one or more extra chemicals used. I no long buy the sugar beet sugar which is generally cheaper. You could try to…

Food allergies are really tough. I struggle some times however I am on a gf/df diet myself. I also have an added bonus of being allergic to soy and coconut with problems on others. It can be done though.

I am certainly not competitive nor am a great swimmer, however I have been doing the water aerobics and the lap swims that we have at our pool. I find I am starving when I am finished so I would love to hear what others do. So far I eat an apple with sunflower butter afterwards. I also find if I eat before going, something…

I have found very similar results. I have found I can use honey or molasses in my coffee will cause no cravings for me. Generally my cravings are for carbs and greasy foods.

I definately agree that opinions are changed one person at a time. Grunt goes to work with my daughter and husband most days and when he is not there people ask about him. So one person at a time and I will continue to be as patient as I can.

I like to make avocado pudding. 1 avocado, cocoa and honey blend till smooth. I personally like to freeze it and then eat it or make a shake.

I have no idea on pastuerizing eggs and such. However we often get free farm fresh eggs. One thing I do is check them before cooking this to make sure they are good. Obviously they are fresh however I have had some that were not good. I put them in a bowl of cold water and if they float they are bad. Enjoy

Yes,,,I struggle with this. Not always, but often enough that it is something I have to find a way to combat. So far I haven't found a good solution.

He may be leary of saying anything. I know my hubby never says anything in regards to my weight. Bad, good, or indifferent. He just will not touch on an area that can be touchy. But I bet he has noticed.

Trust your instincts. There is always a reason for them. A few things I would personally do is to be unpredictable. A predetor will watch your habits and learn them. Even if it isn't a predetor it is a good practice in my opinion. I would certainly inform suspicious activities if I felt my safety or someone elses is in…

You look wonderful. I love to see all the pictures. Something I am definately lacking. You have worked hard for your success and it shows.

You are awesome. Love the before and after pics. You look great. Great job on all your success. :drinker:

Those are tasty and I drink them on occassion. However I found recently I love having fresh squeezed orange juice right from the orange to my cup. It takes about 3 oranges for about 8 oz of juice. Takes maybe 5 minutes of my morning and the flavor is so much better. Often I will take the ce add some mango or berries and…

You can do it. I am thinking you will find the benefits to losing the diet soda will out weigh the enjoyment. :drinker: Try making a twist or something. My favorite is water, marchino cherry juice, and lime. Just a little.

Well done, I would so not recognize those two people as being the one in the same if you had not posted them togethor. Thank you for sharing them. By the way congrats on your run. That is incredible.

Sunflower butter avocado oranges and mangos turned into an amazing smoothie tuna fajitas with mango salsa mmmmmmmm

Yes it is real. My husband who grew up diabetic and therefore used aspartame from the time it came on the market suffered from it. He nearly died before it was figured out and doctors were of no help because most still do not believe it is a possible problem. He could not gain weight, problems with all his joints and was…

We did one the other morning that was super tasty. Strawberries frozen Orange Mango 1/2 dragon fruit I didn't add amounts as it is up to you

I am at the same point in my loss. It is frustrating. However I am trying to remember that I am no longer where I was and I still have someplace to look forward to. Keep it up. Slow progress is ok.
-
You look amazing. Thank you for sharing as I have been struggling getting my head into things as of late. It seems the more people notice I have lost the harder it is to keep doing what I am doing. As if the attention to what I am doing is a stop sign. I don't know why I do that other than maybe I don't want the attention.…

Training is a must with any breed. There is no way of knowing the dynamics of the pack of dogs in question. However as a mom of three who has a Pitbull who is sweet and loving we have never had an issue or problem. My kids have been bitten and it was not from him but from Labs. I don't hate all labs for it though. In my…

My favorite kind of NSV. Those are the best!!! Congrats!!!

I start wheezing during exercise. So at this point I still take it slow. My main exercise is walking and stairs. I no longer wheeze all the time but my lungs still need time to heal and regain the capacity they once did. Be aware of where you are and what you can handle. You can definately get checked to see what their…

I grew up eating this on sandwiches with sprouts a slice of cheese and tomato. Love it.
