@Yahooey : Totally understand. I have tried so many things and eventually gained more weight back. I do need to eat healthier and move more. Easier said than done. I need to do prep work and have several easy meals ready to it.

I haven't had coffee in two days. Didn't eat breakfast because I was busy paying bills and doing research.

Late lunch that DH brought home for me: 2 baked chicken legs, Italian green beans, black eyed peas and a small salad. Only consumed two bottles of water. I am hungry and have a headache. The only thing in the fridge is bagles and cream cheese. Probably will consume once. Very tired .Still working on a grocery order.

it might be easier to be on a schedule with mostly same foods

for example - toast in the morning - every morning  - that is the norm

1 slice of bread is x amt of grams of carbs

i will have 1 cup of pasta when i do eat pasta - 1 cup of pasta = x amt of carbs

you get what i mean - bc it will be hard if you have to count every new little thing

i will always eat this type of cookie - and 2 is my limit - that is x amt of carbs

to look everything a new food item is added will be very frustrating

many years ago - i cut out carbs - ate fish and quinoa for lunch every day

ate fish every evening with a veg

i was aloowed some type of dessert - a fudge pop and some sort of muffin

i did not introduce any new food item

i did lose weight - about 10 lbs - i did that for about a year

my cholesterol was fantastic but then i eventually went back to little carbs

and little by little gained the weight back -

The last 2 weeks i cut way back on eating my toast with  gluten free peanutbutter   but tonight i'm wanting some.

I had a bit of pasta with hamburger in it  today...yes,a frozen meal  and i added some dark red kidney beans to it.

I am not much of a pasta eater  but wanted something different to eat. No it didn't taste good to me at all.

But i do sleep a tad better if i have a cup of hot chocolate before bed time....but i will not put as much marshmelloes in it

lubs ya!

@cowboy sam 

peanut butter is usually gluten free

think it is a marketing ploy - bc people are looking for gluten free items

kinda putting - salt free on oranges - you get what i mean jelly bean?

i hate that.... bc if peiple do need to do gluten free - they are looking for that label

for breakfast - uaually a piece of toast with PB and my home grown jelly - YUM

breathe yahooey..... sending good thoughts that resutl are good fo rur son and ur DIL gets the help she needs

also missing our @Mj12 it has been 2 weeks? or was it more since her doc appt

last day of knitting in the park - it was nippy - very breezy

i did not turn in my scarf - i added a section of gray to go with the red

it is a 2 hr session - i told myself to knit 1.5 hrs and then bind off and turn the scarf in

i relented and took the gray yarn home - will finish and then turn it into the store

Hello Y'all : What's up???? Me still doing research and making list. The earliest appointment with the nutritionalist is October 20. 😀😀😀🤗🤗🤗🤗

@cowboy sam : My saga with the peppermint candy container. Soaked the container for three days and couldn't get the smell out or label off. The mentioned adhesive remover didn't work for me but probably user error. I hate using contact paper but put some on the container. It fit on my laundry cart and currently filled up with gain laundry pods.

Hope you are feeling better and having a good day.🤗🤗🤗

@cowboy sam 

gluten to me are wheat proteins

peanut is a legume

unless u are highly allergic to facilites that may process wheat and cross contamination

kinda like - people who have nut allergies and are sentive to factories using same equipment for stuff

from what i googled

dont mind me - do what u think if best for u

[Yahooey]

I just check to see when our mj last posted

it was the end of august....
