    Weight loss support group?

    Probably not. :) some good info. I actually had been feeling a bit crappy last week. just achy, tired.. nothing specific but you know when you just don't feel 100%. Prayed about as usual & decided to make Sol (Salt solution where you de-solve Him. Pink salt in water to saturation) and...

    Weight loss support group?

    sounds like you may be doing whats called intermittent fasting. every time you eat your body produces insulin (lots with carbs, some with protein, very lil with fat) which tells your body to store fat. eating less often helps let your body burn instead of store fat. Calorie reduction often...

    People rushing the holidays

    I think they should be stripped naked, tied to a pine tree and covered in honey to attract bears. Seriously, I love Christmas... but almost 3 months of having it pushed into everything (Some of the stores had there displays out way before Halloween here) kinda gets wearing. Luckily they don't...

    Keto anyone?

    :D I know right, Ive never even liked coffee, but Hazelnut plus Coffee plus good CocoaButter... that's in a whole different realm. & yeah, good cocoa butter should smell like mild chocolate. basically its white chocolate without the vanilla added. but you can get stuff that's been "deodorized"...

    Keto anyone?

    Only one place we really enjoy any more & thats the Sushi Restraunt. Everything else I can pretty much cook as well or often better than them so we just end up kinda disapointed (followed by feeling crappy when the wheat & who knows whats kick in) Yeah, that will do a number on your immune...

    Keto anyone?

    Carbs don't seem to cause me a problem in general if I go over. But eat some wheat..? UGH. achy & feel like I got run over by a runaway reindeer. We took DH's mum out to a posh restaurant a few weeks ago for her birthday. Really good quality food (like 4 Star level) but as you'd expect...

    Keto anyone?

    I was paleo/primal before Keto & never got keto flue but DH did... (even though he ate/eats the same as me) The keto aid is easy & def cheaper than electrolyte supplements. just make sure your using good salt. I like the Himalayan Pink Salt (says she who currently has at least 8 different...

    Keto anyone?

    Head stands are fun & freak out the hubbys :) and Planks would be really good for core building. Women dont tend to get "lumpy" unless they really work at it (and take steroids). I used to kick-box, reg box and weight-lift and never looked lumpy although I certainly looked muscly.. but I...

    Need Sleep -- My Calves Have Been Cramping up Badly at Night - Causing Lots of Pain

    Both Magnesium & Potassium deficiency are common causes of legs cramps. My guess is, if you have another ongoing issue that being low in either (or both) would compound the issue.

    Keto anyone?

    Bone Broth.... Hmmm, not sure something that's been made/used for hundreds of years qualifies as a fad LOL. It just used to be part of everyday life, you don't waste anything when you have to raise/hunt it yourself. food was food... it just happens that bone broth/stock actually has a lot of...

    Narsisism. Is this biblical?

    I recommend checking out this site. A Cry For Justice you can search for the articles that pertain directly to narcissistic behavior but you will probably find a lot of other stuff there helpful also.

    Why do some women contribute to their own oppression?

    For some of them?.. perhaps because its the only thing they feel they have some power over

    Am I Wrong in This Thinking?

    1. I dont have a mobile phone. not gonna get one just so people can call me at all hours no matter where I am. If you need to talk to me, email or leave a phone message & ill get back to you... eventually..."if" I want to talk to youo_O 2. I dont have facebook etc.. If I wanted that level of...

    How gendered clothing makes more problems for all of us

    I ran across so info a while back that basically pointed to a very likely reason for the "don't dress like the opposite sex " rule Basically there was an issue at the time of people (men in particular) dressing & passing themselves off as women to entice other men. It wasn't just a case of a...
