Morning all

Heading to the villa to meet the plumber and contractor.



Hopefully this goes faster than the main home build.

 

mom on board with low carb! Share the recipes please

 

tabs. Too many tabs. And none of them important or anything. Just random stuff. husband... sheesh. His head hits the pillow and he’s out. Jerk.

 

Potatoes and corn will spike blood sugar. Flour and rice do too.

I was pre diabetic a year ago. Today there’s not a sign of it. Liver enzymes are perfect. Cholesterol is perfect. I’ve lost 45 pounds in 8 months. All doctor approved. All I did was cut our carbs and sugars. No additional exercise (I don’t do any at all). Red meats, fish, chicken, salads. Have never been better

 

What, since you were a toddler!!!

Ditto. Got blindsided by a Thyroid Disease. Was pre-diabetic going in but the treatment pushed me all the way into the deep end of the pool. Decided I could either embrace it or complain about it. So I cut out sugar, flour, potatoes, rice, starch and bread (ugh). I’ve spent two years developing recipes out of a mixture of almond and coconut flour, whey protein powder, mozzarella and cream cheese. Sounds crazy but it works. A1C lived in the in the high 6 to low 7’s. Now I’m at 5.1. Cholesterol is the best it’s ever been. And both my wife and I have lost and kept off over 30 lbs. Keep up the good fight. Will share recipes.

 

I have been amazed at the good health benefits of just taking out the unnecessary waste foods. I do miss bread. A lot! I too am working on a bunch of bread recipes though. But I make choc chip cookie dough, choc chip cookies, bagels and it fits the cravings. I love I can eat all the eggs, bacon, beef I want!

Theres also this thread: https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads/ketogenic-diet.567256/

I dont do full-on keto with the high fats. I add them if I can, but dont go out of my way... Just count the carbs and I’m good!

 

Morning

Have to visit the Pain and Torture Palace later this Morning for more PT

 

Thanks for the link I didn’t even know it existed...I’ve been bugging the foodies bs guys with all my low carb stuff haha. I am not keto either just sensible. 20 grams per meal and 10 per dessert works incredibly well. Sometimes the desserts go higher but we balance with a lower carb main meal.

 

Good Luck with that.
Don't forget it's Friday the 13th

 

Git some!
My Vacation starts right now. Off till Dec.14.
