      That was excellent. She breaks things down extremely well. Thanks for posting!

      Well holy crap!!! I'd always suspected that the whey protein drinks were highly insulinogenic (for me), cuz my weight loss always responds better for me when I'm eating real foods than when I'm on protein drinks...and I read this as I'm drinking an atypical afternoon iced protein coffee cuz I've been doing a really "shitty" job getting my protein in since my surgery. :( Ok, starting tomorrow, no more protein drinks--all protein from food and I somehow someway make myself get in my 60-80g/day!!!

      TY for sharing this!!! I'd either missed or ignored it. Those damn incretins! :(

      those things that raise insulin but not blood sugar are so much harder to track and control.

      no simple finger stick and done.

      i am going to try a pea protein if i can find a small container to try out cause i hate peas and i dont know if i can get past the taste.

    bad news for fruit juice drinkers - sugar is just sugar -source doesn't matter

      Actually source does matter. :( Fructose is much more of a liver bomb than pure glucose. And sucrose (a combo of fructose/glucose) is the devil used by big food companies to enslave the sheeple and plump up as fat as the Christmas goose...

      But yeah, I know where you are going with this and in essence, ALL carbs (even good ones) break down to sugar/fuel of some derivation/formula.

    Hope you all are keeping it safe and staying sane during these difficult times.

    Stress has never been good for food habits and these are odd times so keep working on your mental game and don't beat yourself up too much for any setbacks. 

    I enjoyed this little video and wanted to share.

      I totally agree with you! Mindset is so powerful! There have been times before surgery, and since, that I have started to feel scared or like just throwing in the towel and crying my eyes out! But I keep telling myself that as long as I can stay positive, my recovery will go smoother and I will be so much happier! It's so hard to do right now with all this other going on, but we have to look out for ourselves!!

  7. 08/20/18 - weight 165.5 / bmi 25.9 / bmr 1602 kcals / fat% 17.4% / fat mass 29 lbs

    08/16/19 - weight 149.5 /  bmi 23.5 / bmr 1500 kcals / fat% 16.7% / fat mass 25 lbs

    desired range fat % 11-22 / fat mass 17-38.5 lbs

    just got back from my 2 year check up and wanted to post.  The kcal drop has me worried and thinking i need to up the weights and trim back the cardio. Never saw myself as a person who cared for bulky muscles but the increased calorie burn from more muscle mass certainly wont hurt. 

    New goal for the next year i guess.
