You're right as always and I won't even put a but in the sentence. Somebody else suggested that I should relax and go smoke some weed. I'm sure that my doctor would love that. I'd walk into his office and go what's up, dude...
that was me, who once had a contact high when I was 10 yo and had no idea there was such a thing as a contact high...scared the **** outta me and I've never been near anything non-prescription since! And few as possible things prescription.So I'm hardly a worthy advisor laugh out loud

The 10yo circumstance: my mother had MS, in those days no one knew what caused it so nothing could be done to slow it down. She was a quadriplegic for about 3 years at that point and on lots of pain meds. My hippie sibs and cousins all came around and talked her into trying pot instead (probably the right idea). My mom couldn't figure out how to hold it in, so never felt an effect.
I was amazed that my family members showed up looking happy to be there for once, and wanted to be in the circle on this one occasion that wasn't tense.
Didn't realize I was affected, until I stood up.

Scared straight!

Relating to the diet talk.

I am coming up on my 5 year keto anniversary this year.

I had bad acid reflux and was overweight which led me to change my diet. I lost 77lb and am doing great. February I am going carnivore to do an elimination diet to see if I can figure out some tummy issues I still have. I feel like I am going to miss some things I have most days. olives, pickles, sauerkraut, and homemade kombucha.
My daughter is trying keto right now. I have read in many articles that one should not be on the keto diet for more than 6 months at a time. Is this also what you know about it?

Facepalm
Although if you ask....he may prescribe you some, lol. It's legal there.

I dunno, they were all high - except my mom.
I was chasing my sister around the house and laughing uncontrollably.
I don't want to go too dark, but I'll just say that being out of control around my dad hadn't been a good idea. He was 50 when I was born, 60 at this point and ...tired. My mom's condition meant she needed to be turned several times a night and he never got proper sleep.
He could be unpredicatable with a belt.

I was very fortunate to eventually get good foster parents. No kids in the house seemed to calm him down, too.
And
my foster dad, a pastor, introduced my bio dad to Jesus. I've never seen such a transformation. I was terrified of cars, put off my drivers ed until I was a senior and failed my first DL test. It was my bio dad that worked with me, calmly, so that I passed it the 2nd time. So it was a happy ending.

Who wants my Boost coupons? I have 2 of the $5 ones that expire in February and one of the recent $4 ones. I don't use Boost but these seem like nice coupons to me.

What are you planing to eat as a carnivore? Literally only meat? And for how long? I saw a girl on tiktok share her carnivore diet and she eats eggs and butter and whole milk as well. The textures are so unsettling to me. I don't know how she can just eat a stick of raw butter lol eta: her handle is @steakandbuttergal and she eats ALOT of butter laugh out loud She's been doing it for years so I guess she's over her initial cravings, but I would go crazy without fruits and veggies. But hey, it seems to work for her. I hope you can figure out what's going on.
I am not a fan of her as her you tube thumbnails are click bait with her hardly wearing anything. I don't know that she is drinking milk again. She gets on certain "challenges" I think right now she is high fat carnivore eating all that room temp butter along with her meat. I do not eat room temp butter or purposely add extra butter. The only thing I've heard her say that I disagree with is eating cold fat help with better digestion but haven't heard the reasoning behind that. I mean our bodies are what temp...Confused

Yes I am doing meat only along with butter that I cook something in(salmon) or the animal fat that comes with the meat. I am currently not doing dairy either as I want this to be an elimination diet.

How long? I'm not sure if I will do this one week, one month, or three months. But ideally I need to slowly add stuff back to figure out what my triggers are.

The food is yummy and very satisfying. It isn't very far off from what I normally eat. I do not have cravings right now. When I first started keto my only cravings were beef, salmon and chocolate(which they say is needing magnesium). I typically stick with beef and fish.

I have been keto for the past 5 years and like it. I haven't heard any info that one shouldn't do it for a long time. I, of course, follow those who agree and have seen benefits of doing it for a long period.

What I hear is its hard sticking to keto bc junk food is so accessible/easy.

Ok so I haven't read this thread all week and I came here looking for an update about your pizza situation and there's like 5 pages to read lmao.....

Did you end up with a Dominoes deal? 6.99 each? Have you already answered these questions in the coming pages?!?!
Turns out, pizza really opens the floodgates of conversation! LOL

I dont need the pizza until 3/11. I am planning early. Smilie

I need to research the different slices per pie and what I can expect each to feed. I got some coupons in the mail but to me, it looks like the $6.99 deal is likely the best.
