Reversing Diabetes
I just wanted to share my immense joy with all of my MFP friends. Today I had my regular 3 month diabetes check up. My last check up, we talked about getting off of insulin & I had a blood test done where it said if there would be a chance or not. The results said I scraped by, by the spit on the gums of my teeth! So…

Best BHB Ketone Supplement?
I'm looking to add a little flavor to my daily water (I have a HUGE bubba mug and can drain at least 75 oz a day), and get a bit of a boost. I already eat low carb (diabetic). I was looking into Keto supplements and wondering what would be best as an all-day additive to add to my mug.

Blue Lips
I've seen other posts on this and they all say "Doctor, STAT!" I get that. But I see 3-4 doctors on a regular basis, and I'm not sure which one to ask. I'm diabetic, so I'm really strict about my nutrition. I also do martial arts. I'm just getting back to Taekwondo after shattering my leg in September, but the blue lips…

Apple Cider Vinegar
I've heard good things about Apple Cider Vinegar. I just mixed a tbsp of the brags unfiltered stuff into 34 oz of ice water. Did I do it right? Should I build up to a higher dose? What are advantages and disadvantages? Remember to play nice with eachother when you answer ;)

Don We Now Our Gay Apparel
Let's see your Halloween Costumes!! Here are ours from our local trunk or treat last night. Andy (hubby) couldn't find the pirate costume he wanted to wear, so I told him it would be totally cute if he dressed in his jammies with a newspaper & a giant mug.

1,000 Calorie Challenge
Has anyone tried the 1,000 Calorie Challenge/Six Pack Abs Project? Was just looking at it and wondering if it's worth it. I have 30 lbs left to lose, and I want to be one hot mama when I'm done. If you've tried it: How are the workouts (besides challenging)? Exactly what do you do? I have access to a gym, and when I do go,…

Daily Burn Pro Members?
I love MFP and what it's done for me, but I recently discovered a site called Daily Burn. It has almost everything MFP has, but it's more visual. I've been using both MFP & DB together to help me on my weight loss journey. I am considering upgrading to a paid sub on DB, however, for a few more features. I was wondering if…

Legs
Okay, I'm proud to have taken off 10 inches from each thigh, but now they are all muscle, and seem bigger than before. I'm pretty convinced that they & my knees are also attached to tree stumps that go into cankles. So how do I get nice, toned legs without the bulk? I do C25K at least 3 days a week (often 5), and can thank…

Sedentary or Lightly Active?
Okay, so I go to gym 5 days a week and usually burn around 500 calories (250-300 running, and 200 on stationary bike)... the rest of the day I pretty much sit on my butt and enjoy my day. Am I sedentary or lightly active? I'm not losing weight in a way I'd like to, and just wondering if I'm not giving myself enough…
