  11. Hey girlie Just remember why you are doing this. It's time to start taking care of yourself again. I spent to many years consumed in grief and wasn't really living anymore.. You owe it to yourself and your family to achieve Heath and happiness! Yes I miss food, but what did food ever do for us really? Yes hair loss, constipation and all that jazz happens... But I still wouldn't change it for the world
  12. Do you like to bake? I was looking at this today but haven't tried it.... http://www.ohtastensee.com/2012/09/27/low-fat-sugar-free-black-bean-brownies/

  14. My Vovô used to make the best soupish I'm glad you had fun and also the support of your family, it really helps
  15. At this point I wouldn't worry about a stretched stomach... I would worry more about your binging behavior. At six weeks out if you are already trying to stuff, you are in for a long hard road ahead. I suggest that you get into a therapy group or a private therapist that specializes in disordered eating.
  16. Obamacare is nothing like Canadian health care The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, also referred to as Obamacare by his rivals and opponents, seems here to stay. Naturally, there has been lots of vigorous debate over whether this particular brand of health-care reform is right for America, but what I have found particularly perplexing is the recurring comparison of Obama’s plan with Canada’s current health-care policies. It has been fun at times to read about the chaos that would be sure to ensue should the U.S. adopt a Canadian model. For instance, there is much hand-wringing about death panels, wait lists, and crushing tax hikes. Conservatives in the U.S. have repeatedly trotted out Canadian native Shona Holmes who, in televised attack ads, shares her cautionary tale of being told to wait six months for treatment for a brain tumor she claims would have killed her. Rather than accept the cruel fate socialized health care had bestowed upon her, she travelled to the U.S. for surgery. (I should mention her sobering account is also apparently a fictional one, as Holmes’ “tumour” was actually a benign cyst and not life-threatening.) Still, it strikes right at the hearts of many Americans who are wary of implementing a Canadian-like health-care system in the US. They really needn’t worry, though, as the Affordable Care Act resembles Canadian health care about as much as Honey Boo Boo resembles Justin Bieber. For starters, it is often characterized as a total restructuring of U.S. health care in the direction of socialized medicine, but this is hardly the case. In reality, Obama’s plan comes down to much-needed insurance reform. Insurance companies will now have baseline standards they must offer in all their policies, for instance. There is also a mandate that everyone gets some type of health care coverage (their choice) or pay a tax penalty. In a nod to the ideals of a free-market system, there will be “health insurance exchanges,” which provide consumers with a transparent means of comparing the available insurance policies. How this keeps getting compared to Canada’s publicly funded, single-payer system is beyond me, as Americans will still be free to choose their insurance providers. This supposed freedom is a recurrent theme in U.S. health-care debates and is often a key criticism of Canadian health care. While the Canadian system is not without its flaws, I would argue there is also a certain amount of liberty in not having to worry about financial ruin from a serious accident or losing coverage after a devastating diagnosis. I can personally attest that the so-called “freedom” to choose one’s own health insurance isn’t all that meets the eye. When I lived in the States, I was “free” to choose whether to pay into coverage provided via my employer, and then given a short list of accepted doctors and hospitals (yes, one had to be careful not to get driven to the wrong ER in an emergency). Likewise, being free of insurance co-pays here in Canada did take some getting used to. I was living here two years before I stopped awkwardly pulling out my wallet at a doctor’s appointment. The ability to choose my own health-care provider seems much more “freeing” than choosing my own insurance provider from a list of companies out to maximize their profits. So, if you’re reading this America, don’t worry. Obamacare is still going to allow you the beloved national pastime of paying insurance companies too much money for sub-par care. Fear not, you’re not getting Canadian health care, though you should be so lucky. Written by a "crazy lady"
