    VENTING - can vs should

    We're all different, we all handle things differently, we all have feelings, whether they're right or wrong, we all have to choose what works for us. And we SHOULD all be here to encourage and at the right times (when asked) offer constructive criticism. for ex: I have reservations about the Keto diet. It's not my choice, but I do hope it works out great for those who choose it. I'm not wrong for disagreeing with those who choose it. I will also not go into a debate about it either. Just becomes a mess. Each to his own...

    More calories.....

    Pick a healthy food item that is higher in calories, like avocado. Do you like avocados? That'll push your calories up a bit and help break the stall. can you eat nuts? Macadamia nuts are highest. Peanut butter. Even dark chocolate. 1 piece at a time though.
  4. I'll get some Listerine strips to carry with me then. That should help. I hope they still sell them.
  5. Hey y'all. I'm tired of this bad breath. Anyone with a remedy besides brushing and rinsing all day long? Also, I'm gonna check out for now. I'm quite tired and it's not even 10 my time yet. Y'all have a great night. Sleep well.
  6. We are still rocking the same boat! You described me and my husband. Ha! I'm the social and I have to pull teeth to get him to go anywhere with people. Lol
  7. I almost decided on tuna. I feel like I'm slacking on trying new things though. You did great on protein. I confess, I haven't counted today. If I have to guess it'll be about 45g. I'll try harder tomorrow.
  8. No!!!! Allergic?! A good friend of mine is. She loves them too. She was crazy though. She actually prepared herself to go to the ER just so she can have some shrimp. Now that was a bit much. But I'm sorry you are. They can be so good!
  9. Awwwww so sweet!! I'd like to think a woman makes the man. 😂 Funny fact: while my husband and I were dating (he didn't want to stop the partying and I was tired of it all) I broke up with him. My mother in law was very upset with him about it. He begged for me for a few weeks until I gave him another chance. Lol. My mother in law tells me every time we get to talking, you are a blessing to a Robert. You helped set him straight. 😂 Indeed. Lol
  10. That is smart. I don't think to jot stuff down...I can only imagine all the stuff I've forgotten. Good for you hon. I think I'll try the tea alternative. Only because my coffee isn't all it's up to be these days. I think it's the ridiculous sweeteners. Meh. Thanks for sharing!!!
  11. I have a single 34 yr old brother @mishyk And he has no kids either! but until your time, yes, enjoy all you can now. Hon. Live it!!!!
  12. Lol. I try to play with my iPhone camera. Just wait until you see the plant based dishes. They're awesome!
  13. I didn't think to get salmon. But I will get my ingredients for the ricotta bake. Looks very good.
  14. So what's for dinner. Black beans again. Lol. Love them. But I did cook two shrimp to go with it. I'm not enjoying the shrimp too much and they're my favorite seafood of all time. Maybe I didn't season good enough. They're tasting a little bit too fishy for me. But it's not upsetting my stomach. Maybe some cheese on top will make it better. 😊 Should have just made one shrimp. I didn't anticipate finishing, and I'm totally not finishing it
  15. I will definitely make this soon. Looks great. Glad it worked out. Also, I don't like low fat, no fat cheeses either. Taste funny.
  16. Wow. That was quick! Looks great too. So pretty. Love the porch!!!
  17. I have a desk job. Went back after a week, a week ago. It was easy to pack shakes, broth, etc. When it came time to add in more food, my next phase, I was at a loss. I didn't plan very well and just took my phase one diet. I was hungry. Planning, what you're doing is gonna help. I finally took food today. It saved me. 😊
  18. Absolutely this. One size does not fit all. Hope you find it. 😊
  19. I bought some Yakult Probiotic drinks. I'm taking one a day. Might be tmi, but I've gotten a yeast infection. Everything is off...all my good bacteria went somewhere. Trying to replace it now. Argh....
  20. Oh the things I would do if I were single! LOL I wouldn't also know what to do without my husband either; he sure wouldn't know what to do without me!!! LOL Thank you hon...I've been married for almost 10 years now. I wouldn't change a thing. Best part about things/people....they come unexpected...the good ones. So, again, enjoy yourself and your daughter. You never know.....
  21. @Sweet as peaches....LOL BBP....I LOVE IT!

    CALORIE COUNTING

    Good deal. Just remember with all the exercise you do and if you find yourself in a stall, you might need to add a few more calories to break it. You should get with your nut when that time comes. Blessings hon.
  23. BTW....I am supposed to be working. LOL But I'm having a great conversation with ya'll now.
  24. There are THOUSANDS of great men that can be great husbands out there! I'm assuming you're single based on your post. So, with that...you have it best really (in my opinion) to just really truly focus on yourself. I think you have children too? Older? So, yeah, enjoy your time. Take care of you. Live it hon. A good man can come along...have faith.
