Carbohydrate Addict's Diet ~*~ Summer - Page 65

Did my Dance for 45 min. today. My hips are pretty sore, so I didn't push it. Tomorrow, I will try for an hr. again. I feel so good when I get through...

la.lady · 08-01-2008, 01:31 PM

I wonder why the Blasted Dentists prescribes it with all the harmful effects. Thanks Angela...

glamazon · 08-01-2008, 01:34 PM

$$$$$$$$$

EmandM · 08-01-2008, 01:41 PM

Patty - yep, Angela is right. A lot of companies sell things that are bad for us for $$. And a lot of people that are on safe-product committees are in bed with the companies. So they will say "yeah, it's safe to use XXX" because they also work for XXX and they are profitting. It's scary. Have you ever watched Supersize Me? That is a fascinating documentary that talks about that sort of stuff too. We really need to be our own advocates. My problem is, I know a lot of this stuff, and what is harmful, and yet I continue to eat it/use it/drink it. Like Diet Pop, Splenda and toothpaste. But no more! lol I am very inspired after reading Skinny B*tch. It's a bit extreme in some cases, for example I would never be completely vegan, but I got a lot from reading it.

Monica - I am also so very sorry. Hugs to you!

coxbowen · 08-01-2008, 02:22 PM

O.k....O.k.!!! Now I have to tell my ,,,"what not to use"... it's sunblockers, thats whats causing skin cancer, I don't know if there's anything out about it yet, but there will be studies done soon. I shiver whenever anyone says...don't forget to put your sunblock on!!!!

I just had my lunch, and the leason I learned today was....don't bring my lunch and then eat theirs too...I ate way to much!!! Leson learned, but the good news....I was still on plan!!

I'm sorry hun about your little bunny, and your son is right, listen to him!! Animals are all positive energy, thats why we love our pets so much!!

I have to get back to work, so I'll be back later.

vessel of prayer · 08-01-2008, 03:08 PM

Still here, just read thru five pages... HI everyone.
Cider... it wont stall? I have some in my pantry, Braggs...
Sweetener... makes me gain and stall.lol. Stopping it is a process. I find that the stevia with the fiber is the worse on me. Today I did have one splenda pack and hardly any diet soda in three days or so. Pushing on and forward. Following the plan and ordered my own book from amazon so I can bring the one I have back to church. I have two of my g. girls here so I cant participate this week on board like I want. I will try to give it my all here on Mon. to learn everyone..if possible.

la.lady · 08-01-2008, 03:09 PM

Cindy I am afraid I couldn't get outside with out them, because the medications I take cause me to get a sunburn easily. I'll sure be on the lookout. All this stuff is beginning to scare me. My girls slather their kids up with it before they go on the lake.

I don't care about the $$$$$$$$$$. Someone, needs to do something!!!!! There is no telling what we put in our mouths that is hurting people.

la.lady · 08-01-2008, 03:13 PM

Hi Sheila... Yep, those artificial sweeteners really get ya... I can eat all the sugar I want and never stall, but those sweeteners gets me every time...I was the worst person on the diet cokes and sweeteners you ever saw. I bet I use to drink 10 of those a day, but now I don't even want any. I didn't think that I would be able to give them up, but I do have bad side effects from them so that has helped me let them go... One is that they can cause you to have bad mood swings and they did that to me, and made me itch, and so on...

coxbowen · 08-01-2008, 04:21 PM

Me too Patty, I drank pop all day long...sipping on them, no wonder I was so fat!!! Well....... that and grazzing all day.

glamazon · 08-01-2008, 05:09 PM

Yes, Cindy, sunblocks too. Coconot oil helps with that, but also, I've been told having enough Vitamin D in your system is KEY to not frying to a crisp. Sunlight is VERY VERY good for you, so certainly don't avoid it. Sometimes you do need some protection, when you're out in the sun for a long time or in the tropics or something, when you don't want to wear long sleeves and a hat... there are higher quality natural sunblocks you can buy at Whole Food or a store like that. You just have to read the ingredient labels. I think I need to do more research in this area to find a good one.

coxbowen · 08-01-2008, 05:33 PM

Thanks Angela, I was hoping you had some info on this for me, you never let me down yet.

I always tan in the booths before my vacations, that way I don't burn when we go over the mountain to visit his family. I'm sure the beds arn't healthy either, but I do love a nice tan for the summer. I have a hat this year though, the top of my head is thinning somehwat and it gets burnt!! I started taking natural vit. D too, just in the last two months, was hoping to improve mental status........

EmandM · 08-01-2008, 06:23 PM

Sunscreen? Really? Good grief. I don't wear it much, but I slather it on my kids all the time! I guess now it will be coconut oil and hats only for my girlies.

la.lady · 08-01-2008, 06:26 PM

Menu:
1 slice of Cheddar Cheese
Fresh Squash Saute' Fish
Grilled Chicken Salad, Toast with Butter and Apple Butter, Cereal...

Boy I am stuffed. I can't see that scale moving in the right direction tomorrow..

vessel of prayer · 08-01-2008, 07:20 PM

I feel fat everyone.
I am not overeating, but still feel so bloated. I drank some braggs, lol. Still feel icky. Got to go shopping and get good food. Doing great for what I have tho.
I couldve done without the cake.

Staying on plan with cm and rms....maybe too much at night for my rm tho. Got to tweak. Have cut wayyyyyyyyyyyy back on diet soda. Had a sip of lemon lime diet for supper, thats about it. I did have one c coffee with cream and one pk spenda but not hungry ...so that is good. Will be gone for the next two days most of all the day so probably wont be back here till Mon. Take care all.

goodtolaff · 08-01-2008, 07:28 PM

I need some of that for mental status

goodtolaff · 08-01-2008, 07:40 PM

Cm...... cold pork chop eaten in my car ( glamorous, eh!!)

RM....... steak, coleslaw, blueberry pie and icecream, coffee.

I am so on plan, I am never craving and almost never hungry and I feel fat today also..... just one of those things.

Hey i am even drinking my coffee black

I have not weighed for at least 10 days I am sooooooo curious but now I am afraid.... what if I havent lost!! I NEED to know....Ugh!!!!!! What do I do!!

I cant handle this pressure

I need to make a decision!!!

glamazon · 08-01-2008, 08:38 PM

Hang in there, everyone! Don't go crazy, now!

Shelagh, for heavens sake just get on there first thing tomorrow morning nekkid after you pee and take it like a man. (er, woman.) It will be fine. If it's not an acceptable number, proactively do something to MAKE IT change... swim laps for an hour, get on an elliptical at the gym, ride a bike, take a hike, extra long walk with the dog. Skip the blueberry pie in favor of blueberries. Anything! You can do it! You control that scale and YOU MAKE IT DO WHAT YOU WANT!

So, as you can see my world is CRAZY right now!

Attached are links to my two new flower beds in the backyard and one of how big the baby bunnies are now (the one with the green background of my shirt is the one that we buried on Tuesday morning)
