The cramping goes away, you'll feel right as rain soon, but it is a weekend kind of trick because Senna is a stimulant laxative.

Oh & congrats!

I took it yesterday at around 5. Didn't have to go until 1 am. Then 2 am, 3 am, 4 am, 530 am. And I'm still getting a LOT of noise and discomfort... I might leave work, not just because of the cramping, but I also got a hitch in my left hip and my spinal arthritis is flaring up (which is on the right side), feels like rain is on the way in.

Ohhhh, I also get spinal arthritis from rain, snow any change in barometric pressure... too much spine exposure/meddling I guess

I feel your pain

Good gawd. Yesterday I had a hungry hungry hippo day. I ate ALL. THE. FOOD! ALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

Holy crap! I'm glad those days don't come around very often. I won't spit out everything I ate. *sigh* But here are the amazing totals: 1383 cals; 98g Protein (FU*K); 136g fat (BIGGER FU*K); 77g carbs 🖕; 16g fiber; 61g net carbs 🖕

Dang!!! When I decide to let it out and eat...holy jehosaphat!

The good news is I'm only up 0.4lbs and I'm betting that is from a big ass poopy! LOLOLOLOOL! Will IF all day until 5pm. Have a dinner meeting with a friend tonight. So back in the saddle today--no shenanigans and come on y'all, pray me a gigantor poopy!!!!

IF amazes me every time. I only consumed a total of 630 calories since 6pm Tuesday... and I'm not hungry at all. Not tired. Not "hangry". Just... Fine. I feel like I could go another day without any notice at all.

I'm looking forward to getting back on track after vacay. It is an amazing feeling to feel so satisfied on so little!

Fresh cashews will change your life.
Like, just off the tree fresh.
Had some in Nicaragua and was so upset the next time when I missed the season.

What, oh no, now I need to find out when cashew season is ... Nicaragua is already on my to do list!

Meh ...

Fire isn't an issue if you live in an urban area like I do, the key is more houses, less trees!

Earthquakes, they've talked about "the big one" literally my whole life, and so far so good.

Welcome home dear @sillykitty!!!!! Congrats on a successful trip (roller food binge included) and on developing "trust" that things are working! We missed you. Now post a lot!

So ok, it took me a while, but here's my "maiden virgin voyage" with @GreenTealael golden milk. Holy crap! Who knew sesame turmeric coconut-cashew vanilla toffee stevia Decaf coffee would taste amazing? LOL. Fork me it's good!!!!!

Now I gotta run and input into MFP so I can see the totals. I'm reasonably sure I will count this as a "safe" fasting liquid. LOL. Why? Cuz 1cup has about 1.5g carbs and <0.5g Protein and the rest is fat and lol "crap". I know...but in my defense, I did use the silk cashew milk and So Delicious Coconut Milk (both unsweetened) cuz that's what I had on hand. Will try almond milk laterski.

Thanks again Tea! I'm gonna have a 1/4 cup of it again in my cup of Matcha later! So excited to try this new thing. I'm hoping the turmeric (and freshly ground black pepper aka piperin) will help with the inflammation in my esophagus!

I'll be back to share the totals. Here's TheYouTube on it again:
